-> 206 Problems

hi all,

got a problem with my newly aquired 206. the fuel guage moves and stuff when you switch the ignition on but it's just above a quater of a tank and the fuel light came on so i think the sender is working, just the needle is playing up..?

is there anything that can be done or is it a case of getting new dials?


cheers
twed.

well you might need a new thermostat so the gauge sit at 82 ish,and about the fuel gauge,you need to check the sender on the fuel pump

Yes, me.

If it's multiplexed (Oct 2001 >) reset the BSI and if that solves it go to a dealer for an ECU and BSI software update.

I have a x reg 2 litre HDI TD which the ECU has not been updated since.
