#1: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: madserboo, Posted: Thu Nov 21, 2013 7:37 am ---- Hey all I have 206 2001 2.0 GTI, it had been sitting up for over a year, I charged the battery last night and today tried to start it today and it wouldn't tick over, all electrics were working. So I jumped it but it only runs when accelerator is pressed, when I let off it cuts out. When I start it I have to keep pressing the peddle for it to tick over, any help would be much appreciated Thanks

#3: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: madserboo, Posted: Thu Nov 21, 2013 7:50 am ---- Mate sorry im not to good with this stuff but is that the connection that's on the throttle wire in the engine
#4: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: dicko79, Posted: Thu Nov 21, 2013 8:07 am ---- map sensor sits in the inlet manifold under the throttle and the idle control valve site in the throttle housing at the top
where abouts are you?

#6: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Thu Nov 21, 2013 9:03 am ---- sit there for 20 mins with your foot on the accelerator @ about 2k revs, thats what i did years ago after parking the car up for a good 9 months!
Seem to fix the issue for me,,
#7: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: madserboo, Posted: Thu Nov 21, 2013 9:09 am ---- I done that yesterday for about 10-15 minutes an slowly let off but still cut out, ill will try it for longer today
#8: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: usher, Location: northallertonPosted: Thu Nov 21, 2013 1:57 pm ---- The battery being flat causes them not to tick over properly
As mentioned above sit there at 2k revs for 20mins it will work fine after or drive it with the throttle cable adjusted to keep the revs up
I had to do this when my bBro in law battery died due to alternator so we stopped batteries and I drove home with his dead battery and revs up
#9: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: madserboo, Posted: Fri Nov 22, 2013 11:04 am ---- Ok so today I jumped it an adjusted throttle cable so it ran at 2000, let it run for 20 minutes, turned off engine, turned it back on an it was struggling, I pressed the throttle repeatedly an it started, left it running at 2000 for 30 minutes, turned off engine, turned back on and it was struggling again so I repeatedly pressed throttle but it's not ticking over, any ideas???????

#11: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: madserboo, Posted: Fri Nov 22, 2013 12:15 pm ---- If it's not to much trouble could someone upload a picture of one? I've Google it and nothing looks similar.
#12: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: madserboo, Posted: Fri Nov 22, 2013 12:20 pm ----
Is this it???
#13: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: doski, Location: WarwickshirePosted: Fri Nov 22, 2013 12:56 pm ---- yes its the top right sensor with the yellow white and green wires showing i think its two t20 screws that hold it in had to clean mine recently.
also is that water on the butterfly flap around the bottom and unless you unplugged it that top left connection should have a plug in it its a heater to warm up the body
#14: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: doski, Location: WarwickshirePosted: Fri Nov 22, 2013 12:57 pm ---- you could try the maf sensor but with my car when i put my foot down with it unplugged the car stalls which im sure is the oposite to what you are getting
#15: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: madserboo, Posted: Fri Nov 22, 2013 2:04 pm ---- K thanks ill clean that first thing in the morning an let yous know
#16: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: madserboo, Posted: Sat Nov 23, 2013 7:41 am ---- Ok so ive cleaned the idle control valve and every plug around the area, and still not ticking over? How do I upload a picture and ill show exactly what was cleaned
#17: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: madserboo, Posted: Mon Nov 25, 2013 5:35 am ---- Any more ideas?? I'm at a dead end
#18: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: dicko79, Posted: Tue Nov 26, 2013 5:13 am ---- Did you actually take the idle valve out of the throttle housing?
#19: Re: Peugeot 206 GTI HELP Author: madserboo, Posted: Tue Nov 26, 2013 5:31 am ---- Ye I took it out an took throttle body apart an cleaned it
