#1: engine management light comes on in the rain Author: bridge9, Posted: Sun Nov 18, 2012 4:13 pm ---- hi, any one got any ideas, i have a 2004 206 diesel 1.4 which i got a few months ago, i love it but every time it rains the engine light comes on then after a while the car keeps cutting out. got 2 codes one said something about fuel pump and the other said some thing about intake. i was told that some times water runs up the headlight and gets into the air intake so i fixed this from happening. also someone said change fuel filter. didn't work. don't realy have the money to go to auto electrician. just checking to see if there is a common fault? the pollen filter needs changing and the car steams up a lot,, could the built up of moisture in the cabin be getting onto some of the circuits and causing my problem? i will be changing the filter ASAP anyway. thanks in advance

Use a proper contact-spray instead if you have to.

#7: Re: engine management light comes on in the rain Author: bridge9, Posted: Wed Nov 21, 2012 3:47 pm ---- hi again, i found the codes p1160 and p0087?
#8: Re: engine management light comes on in the rain Author: Seabook, Posted: Wed Nov 21, 2012 6:13 pm ---- well...
p1160 is IAT sensor short circuit
p0087 is low fuel rail pressure
it will have to be the p0087 causing the engine cut out problem; since you don't have an in-tank fuel pump. All i could think of is there is something wrong with your injector pump or blockage in the fuel pipe.

Ant, you genius, you could be right.

Don't drive the car when it's raining. Problem solved.
