#1: ODB connection issue / SKID warning lamp Author: bigwul, Posted: Thu Sep 26, 2019 11:50 am ---- Just put my trusty old 98 plate 206 1.6 petrol back on the road - to give to my daughter - done loads new parts and all good.
The one fly in the ointment seems to be the SKID light - that when my local MOT station say it - rightly failed the car.
Problem they have - he says cannot access the OBD port.....
Just wondered if this is common.?
I do not know what system he uses - but says he has no issues with other Pug's....
Yes it would be good to connect OBD reader (just near the interior fusebox) to see which ABS sensor is at fault.
If the scanner they have doesn't work, maybe for a simple sanity-check they or someone else could try to plug-in the simplest fault reader, just to read off the codes.
You could get them cheap from ebay, the Bluetooth ones, that talk to your android/iphone via the Torque app.
The best would of course be to find someone with Peugeot Planet and check again. I reckon going to official dealership is off the table?
PS: And by 98 plate you meant the R or S plate? Just trying to see if you are in UK and if someone nearby with a PP2000 could help you out:)

I am located in Hawick - Scorttish Borders.

#7: Re: ODB connection issue / SKID warning lamp Author: bigwul, Posted: Thu Sep 26, 2019 1:04 pm ---- ah - but then again the lights for the MFD are blown - forgot about that....so cannot see anything......

#9: Re: ODB connection issue / SKID warning lamp Author: bigwul, Posted: Thu Sep 26, 2019 6:13 pm ---- I will check for the fuse - garage guy reckons first Pug he cannot speak to....
Thanks for reply

#11: Re: ODB connection issue / SKID warning lamp Author: MrBSI, Location: What's it to you? ? ?Posted: Sun Sep 29, 2019 7:07 am ---- A 98 year 206 isn't going to have ESP fitted.
What's the VIN of the 206?
It may have ABS fitted - the warning light will either say ABS or it will have a picture of the car skidding, the 206 has used both types of these warning lights over the years depending on spec.
#12: Re: ODB connection issue / SKID warning lamp Author: bigwul, Posted: Sun Sep 29, 2019 10:31 am ---- It has the ABS light and the ESP light
The ABS light illuminates then goes out - the ESP is constant.
#13: Re: ODB connection issue / SKID warning lamp Author: bigwul, Posted: Sun Sep 29, 2019 10:53 am ---- Interstingly - just replaced F14 - it was blown - blew immediately again - any ideas.?
#14: Re: ODB connection issue / SKID warning lamp Author: bigwul, Posted: Sun Sep 29, 2019 10:57 am ---- It has type 3 fusebox according to this link......
