#1: car wont start Author: zezotornado, Location: Saudi ArabiaPosted: Fri Jan 18, 2013 12:30 pm ---- Hi,
yesterday my car didn't start and I thought that the problem is the battery so I changed it and it works perfectly but today it wont start again I heared only a "click" sound and I tried to check the fuse box under the bonnet and I discover that when I remove this fuse ( see the pic ) and plug it in again the car start normally .
any idea what is the problem ?

With a small screw driver you may be able to push the contacts in the fuse holder closer together to make a better contact or just replace the fuse. The contact faces are probably dirty. Tight contacts and remove refit the fuse 2 or 3 times is often enough to clean the contact face and cure the intermittent fault.
Have a look at shutting down BSI and BSI reset procedure. You ought to follow that if you are removing and replacing these fuses.

#5: Re: car wont start Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Fri Jan 18, 2013 3:04 pm ---- Are the fuse blades clean or dirty looking?
#6: Re: car wont start Author: kandlbarrett, Location: SwindonPosted: Fri Jan 18, 2013 3:45 pm ---- Spray the fuse holder with one of these may also help. Useful to keep as it looks like quite a few have used it to clean MAF.
#7: Re: car wont start Author: zezotornado, Location: Saudi ArabiaPosted: Fri Jan 18, 2013 3:48 pm ---- I replaced the fuse and this is the old one
#8: Re: car wont start Author: kandlbarrett, Location: SwindonPosted: Fri Jan 18, 2013 4:00 pm ---- Looks like the contacts are quite strong. You can see where the fuse has been scrapped clean removing it. Keep it as a spare it was probably just dirty connection that has now been cleaned up just replacing the fuse.
Good luck. Last edited by kandlbarrett on Fri Jan 18, 2013 4:29 pm; edited 2 times in total

#10: Re: car wont start Author: kandlbarrett, Location: SwindonPosted: Fri Jan 18, 2013 4:37 pm ---- You have been good to spot the specific fuse. Most people would have pulled and reseated each fuse and relay in one single go. Problem fixed but they would never have known which fuse or item was at fault.
Well done to you.
#11: Re: car wont start Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Fri Jan 18, 2013 4:42 pm ---- Keep an eye on it, if you have persistent problems. This was a reoccurring problem on my hdi relating to the fuel pump.
#12: Re: car wont start Author: zezotornado, Location: Saudi ArabiaPosted: Fri Jan 18, 2013 4:46 pm ---- you had the same issue i mean that fuse ?

That's because you are looking at / linked to a NON plexed fuse list when the OP's car is MULTIPLEXED
The 10 amp F4 fuse on a multiplexed 206 is for the engine ecu & also the auto gearbox.
#14: Re: car wont start Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Fri Jan 18, 2013 4:52 pm ---- Not that fuse, I was the fuse for the fuel pump. but every couple of weeks I had to change the fuse box. Sold the car as soon as I found the problem. Don't know what caused it, but the fuses kept corroding, looked like an electrical problem.
Check where the fuse sits, see what the connections look like. Could also look at a couple of other fuses, check there condition. there's 2 fuses for the BSI. Mine was probably a problem related to that car, so don't worry!
#15: Re: car wont start Author: zezotornado, Location: Saudi ArabiaPosted: Sat Jan 19, 2013 10:27 am ---- oops!
today in the morning it start normally but after 1 hour trip I turn it off and it wont start again
i tried to remove the fuse and plug it again but it is not starting
#16: Re: car wont start Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Sat Jan 19, 2013 12:44 pm ---- Is your fuel pump priming?
#17: Re: car wont start Author: zezotornado, Location: Saudi ArabiaPosted: Sat Jan 19, 2013 1:07 pm ---- yes it is
I called a technician but he is not in my city he said that the the problem is the fuse box and i have to replace it
is it possible ?
#18: Re: car wont start Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Sat Jan 19, 2013 5:30 pm ---- Thats what I had to do, but I knew the fault. Have you got an engine light on? Even if not I bet there's a pending code problem stored. I wouldn't guess at the problem. See if you can get it code read.
#19: Re: car wont start Author: zezotornado, Location: Saudi ArabiaPosted: Tue Jan 22, 2013 1:03 pm ---- Hi,
After i got very very annoyed from the problem i went to Peugeot dealer and they found the problem in the starter ( pic below ) and i replace it and now every thing is perfect .
thank you so much all of you for the help and i wrote this to make this post helpfull if any one face the same problem ( I hope not ) .
#20: Re: car wont start Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Tue Jan 22, 2013 2:09 pm ---- Sometimes the first point of action is a fault code read, unless the problem is really obvious! Although in saying that, a fault code can give you the run around, but its batter to have one than not, glad you got it sorted!
#21: Re: car wont start Author: kandlbarrett, Location: SwindonPosted: Tue Jan 22, 2013 2:14 pm ---- Nice to see it sorted. Once again the suggested fix leads pure diagnostic to a jumped conclusion!
#22: Re: car wont start Author: DREWDEN, Location: huddersfieldPosted: Wed Jan 23, 2013 7:10 pm ---- The 20amp-70amp fuses in the diagram for the (bsi, abs, fan unit etc) are located under the fuse box.
And are reveiled when you pull the fuse unit upwards out of its box.
Just thought i'd put this in for people who don't know this.
Would MrBsi just second this, because not sure with preplex.
Thanks
#23: Re: car wont start Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Thu Jan 24, 2013 2:00 am ---- I think your right, there called maxi fuses,but the picture doesn't relate to the diagram on that link. Obviously wrOng diagram used. If those maxi fuses blow you've got a serious fault somewhere though
