Electronics acting weird
-> 206 Problems

Morning people of info

Lately my 206 GTi 180 has been acting strange. I was cruising on highway the other day when all of sudden all my dials started dipping and then going up again a couple of times. Then the speedo cluster lights went off and beeps can be heard. On the display it showed the one fault after the other (ESP, ABS, Brake, Anti Pollution, Airbag). It did this for about 20 seconds and then the car lost power and died. Headlights and parks also died.

I pull over. Leave the car for a minute and then start the car again. This time I only got an anti pollution fault (never had it before). The parks work but only one headlight works. None of the foglights want to work. I get home and park car. Next day I start car and anti pollution fault is gone but one headlight and fogs still don't work.

Didn't drive the car much over last week but last night the dipping dials and errors popped up again but luckily car didn't die.

What could this be? My battery is less than 18 months old and testing shows it's fine. Nothing is loose or out of place on my fuse box when I checked it.

Thanks in advance

Check your earth strap to gearbox - sometimes they come loose or rust which causes weird electronics behaviour
