- The BSI fitted to Peugeots and Citroens can cause all sorts of problems. Try this if you have wiper, immobiliser or light issues
Put the driver's window down, lift the bonnet and ensure all equipment is switched off.
Ensure all doors are closed and remove key from the ignition.
Wait for 3 minutes
Disconnect the vehicle battery and wait 15 seconds.
Reconnect the vehicle battery, wait a further 10 seconds (do not open doors.).
Switch on the side lights through the driver's window.
Switch on the ignition and check system's functionality.
Hold lock button on key down for 10 seconds.
Remove key open & close door test central locking system.
Start the engine and complete the system's check.
Amazing. Thank you. Absolutely solved my problem (robotic gear didn’t shift for reverse)
Thanks! Will try this to my Peugeot 206cc 2002. After I disconnected the main contoller box all my instrument panel meters seems to die for one second every two seconds... Now is even my horn dead
Thank you so much! worked a treat on my Xsara VTS which would not start when cranked and hazards just flashed!
Glad to hear it
I know Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know of a way to get back into an instagram account?
I was dumb forgot the login password. I would love any tips you can offer me.
@Brett Reuben Instablaster ;)
@Nikolai Gerardo thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im trying it out now.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Nikolai Gerardo it worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much you really help me out :D
My problem of my c2 vts 2005 is sometimes when you start just click only no crankings i change my battery now a new, do you think is that starter?
I have a problem with a 2004 Citroen C2 hdi I recently bought with some electronic bugs. I don't know if they would disappear with the procedure in this video.
here is the list of those bugs:
1 - room light does not light up when driver's door opens (LHD), almost always. when the passenger door (right side) opens, it lights up.
2 - trunk door does not open always. we must first open the passenger door to unlock the trunk.
3 - sometimes when we turn on the key before start the engine we heard a noise like "trrrrr" in the clocks area
4 - sometimes when we fire the engine and fasten the seat belt we heard a "beep" warning 3 times, but there is no warning lights on, neither any other warning.
5 - reverse lights only light up with the engine running. this is not normal. all my other cars and all cars I had can light up the reverse lights without engine running, being enough to turn on the key. that is normal.
........
if someone knows about these bugs, I appreciated tell me something.
I don't want to make the procedure on this video before dissipate some doubts and I'm afraid it could stay worse than it is.
This is a very delayed response.As an owner of a 2007 c2 1.1 petrol. The trunk for only opens when any for is open first. This is to ensure noone opens your trunk when you are on the traffic lights and steals your stuff, this happens also on vw and opel cars from my experience so it's normal.for 1,2,3 you must have a door switch fault and it doesn't register your driver door opening or closing.
my window wipers interval does not work properly.. i hope this wil fix it! but can you explain me why you are putting on the side lights? grtz
It's a sequence to set up the body control module. The computer is waiting for that input First
Thanks for the video, unfortunately, useless for me unless i dismount the drivers electrical window.
Long message here but hope it could help some owners (sorry for the bad English, i'm french) :
Let me explain :
I suddenly had an issue with my 03/10/2006 Citroën C2 1.4i "Tonic" :
Context :
Battery was replaced in 09/2021.
The car had a front crash at approximately 30/40 km/h in 03/2022, airbags and seatbelts pretensioners deployed. Radiator pierced and coolant leaked but weirdly not all of it. Front end inside the engine bay being messed up and tighter, ventilator cuddling the engine and being completely stuck.
But since it was still running, drivable despite the alarms about airbags and me definitely not having the money to fix it, i still used it after a few month of sleep, afraid of roasting the engine but ending up to needed it too much. Battery gone flat and manage to recharge it with a plug charger. Always using the heating at full power since as i guess an approximately way to cool the engine ;) But never have any temperature alert !
Moving forward i let it sleep once more for a couple of month during winter 2023. battery gone flat and i recharged again.
Now, the sugar on the cream.
After using it for the last weeks one day it suddenly died completely : Remote opening didn't work, i manually opened it with the insert key but only the drivers door, central locking wasn't working too. Put the key in, turned and... nothing happened. No dashlight, no sign of life, Electrically completely dead. Despite the GPS insurance device plugged in my OBD, nothing was working.
Obviously My first thought was the battery. So i recharged it again with the charger put it back in but still nothing.
So i guessed a fuse gone bad. Checked the ones visible and randomly manipulate them, it ended up to turn on. Naively, guessed the problem was solved and quit.
But Next day it was dead again. So i checked and tested with a multimeter every fuses of the BSI (inside) and BSM (engine bay). All good. Cleaned approximately en earth wire connexion full of grease behind the battery. Cleaned EVERY plug i could see too with contact spray. Then i realized either when i sometimes disconnected and reconnected the battery or the "shunt" fuse, a single beep could be heard under the dashboard (sound more like a "donnng..." precisely). This being the only clue of life i had, i kept connect and disconnect those randomly, without paying attention to the exact configuration at the moment (doors closed/open, key in or out..) And it strangely finally came back to life by it's own after a few minutes. This being weird and spooky as hell, i naively hoped it should be fixed..
Again, the next day it gone dead. So i decided to dismount the BSI and checked inside. No burns, completely clean. tried the same with the BSM inside the fuse box but it seems glued so i didn't tried to open it. Again, no corrosion whatsoever in the fuse box or maxi fuses.
SO like i said i can't easily try this procedure since i obviously can't open my window.. because.. it's electric... (laugh in pain)
According to the few threads i found describing the exact same issue with very similar cars :
frenchcarforum.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=69976&sid=b268a061a5db379a83274672069e5eaf
citroenc3owners.com/viewtopic.php?t=2819
The problem seems to come from the BSI. Either being wrongly programmed as having an automatic gearbox instead of a manual or just gone bad.
I'll test my battery soon to be sure if it's faulty or not (i tested it and it still had 12.3 volts wich i guess should be enough to light up the car and proved to be, since it still randomly start 2 times before definitely die since) And try the reset BSI procedure if i have faith to dismount the window. Or bring it to Citroën for a diagnostic. Or throw the freaking card in a scrapyard.
Hope this could help some owners.
My advice:
Next time, buy a Toyota Yaris.
Just on that, if you can't operate the window you can latch the door with the door open
@@bry940 i haven't though about that... yeah I'll try, it might work. Thanks.
Min citroen c3 vill inte starta helt plötsligt batteri lampan blinkar och det står eco mode på färddator hur kan jag fixa detta motorn går runt
Hi great watch.will this work on Peugeot partner
It works on alot of French cars
Thanks for quick response.iv tried it 3 times no joy.the problem iv got is my key bobs won’t unlock and lock doors.i only had 1 key .so programmed a second key .they both open the doors and the central locking switch in car works but can’t get fobs to work.iv tried the hold lock button for ten seconds but nothing any help would be appreciated.thanks 🙏
Doesn't work for me. I have 2007 Peugeot 407 2.0 HDI. I did a DPF refill myself as I was quoted $700. I purchased Lexia adapter, it can connect to the ECU perform actuation tasks but can not read error codes. I tried even with the original Lexia adapter still not reading any error codes, but "diesel particulate filter level too low, repair needed" message flashes up every time i start the car...
BSI reset will not help you and this message doesn't produce an error code as far as I know, there is a small container that is close to the tank underneath the vehicle, this container needs to be filled up with the correct amount of additive and the correct additive, through Lexia you can read how big is the container and how much fluid was used, top up the necessary amount, once done you have to tell the computer the refill was performed, for some of you thinking about doing this without filling the tank... just don't do it okay? Unless you're prepared to fork out a lot more for a brand new DPF, this fluid is necessary for proper operation of the DPF filter, the message says it is low and it needs topping up, once done just tell the computer its been done.
My lexia does not work, diagbox working nice instead... Mine has communication error...
Hi , my citroen c3, doesn't lock and unlock from key remote , I can only lock/ unlock driver s door with key , what to do can you please help? Thank you very much for your time.
Check for the transit link. This in in the fuse box and has two positions. One for sitting waiting for the car to be sold and the other is for when it's with the customer. It looks like a fuse
I cant turn off right backlight on my Pug 407,will this help?
i'm not able to put the window down on my car since no indoor-electronic works is it any other way to do it?
Maybe try to close the latch on the door with the door open. So the car thinks the door is shut.
@@bry940 but do I need to start the car during the process?
My citroen c3 doesn't want to start all of a sudden the battery light flashes and it says eco mode on the trip computer how can I fix this the engine spins
Same on Citroen C5 2001?
I can't open my window, car stuck in Eco mode, with immobilizer on. Even with new battery fitted.
What Car is it?
I have the same thing on my citroen C4 cactus. Had the ad blue deleted and was running fine now a week later can't start the car at all. Any ideas please?
Will this work for setting in a new EGR valve ? I would like to tell the car computer that I have installed a new EGR valve...
I'm not sure if it will make any difference with the egr. That's engine ecu rather that bsi
@@bry940 Indeed, I tried it and it did not make any difference. I am going to have to go the garage...
I really am sorry to here that
@@bry940 @SHC AUTOELECTRIC don't worry, not your fault ^^ ;)
Will this sort out no front right lights or indicators/hazards on 2012 citroen c3 Picasso
It has the potential to.
I've got Xsara 2001,you see the problem i got is that door unlocks with central key but when i press to lock it it doesn't lock even a single door,by the way i also switched battery yesterday(because it had same problem but it was kinda worse cause it didn't even want to unlock it before that and lock it ofc)
I didn't believe it the first time either
When you say switch off all equipment does this include radio aswell etc.?
+Blessed HD the radio shouldn't matter. The stalk controls need to be in their off position
switch off your brain then back on wait for 30 seconds then reboot
C2 / 2005 / VTR Problem: The temperatures rises (all 6 lamps light up) from time to time for a few minutes without any cause and then drops again to its normal position. Do you think this will work here as well or maybe you've heard af this problem before in the past? This problem I have aleady for several years wih this car , but nobody seems to find a solution.
Thanks in advance
Its one of two problems : the engine coolant temperature checker, or the wiring leading to it. Its a sensor mounted on a nut, you can only see cables connected to a greed connector, that then leads to the engine. This part is UNDER the air filter on petrol models, it has to be removed. If you can follow the cable, maybe check the voltage through the system you should be fine. One day it will completely fail and the ECU will lock you out of startign your car completetly
my blinkers on citroen c3 blink double time faster than it should, and the central computer in car shows that always back right door is opened, and i cant lock the car
will this help me, or you maybe know the right solution?
Propebly not. Are all your lights working? As for the door it is probably the micro switch in the lock unit
Will this start my c4 2005 ?it use to start and sometimes not,but now it wont start at all display says something aboit bsi coz its in french orr whatever,would this help?
It works for alot of issues so I would try it.
Hi
Wondering if this would help with my problem on Citroen C3 Aircross. Nearside dipped headlight stopped working, checked bulb it’s fine, there’s no fuses for dipped lights, all the other lights work fine on both sides of car including full beam. 😊 Thanks
Its worth trying but I dont think you will clear the fault. The system might have detected an over current on the circuit and shut it down.
Hey, did you fixed the problem? Same problem with my C2... Passengers side low beame stopped working..
@@atomichawk3720 Hi. After around three to four days the fault cleared on it’s own.
Because there’s no fuses the system that feeds it close’s down, then after while resets itself.
It’s a stupid system.
@@bigjambo5921 thanks for your fast response. My fault is more then a few days already.. I changed everything but nothing helps.. It's only the dimmed beam on the passengers side..
Best regards
@@atomichawk3720 Strange, it’s the EMS that controls these dipped lights individually.
The only other thing could be a relay fault
How long has it been since it stopped working,?
Try this first, it might be a silly thing to say but if it has been quite a while since it stopped working remove the bulb again and replace with a newer one, don’t don’t put the old one back in,
One other thing to do, remove the wiring plug fits into the headlight unit, find the wire that feeds your dipped light and check if power is coming through to feed the dipped light.
I have c3 2005 and they show me eco mode after 10m when i turne off the engine the batterie is good i changed recently, i just want to knew if this method help me to delete this message or no .thank u
No but I would check the transport link in the fuse box. It looks like a fuse but has 2 positions. 1 from the factory and the other for the customer
Hi my name is Taylor I have a problem with my Citroen C2 vtr and no one in Australia seems to know how to fix it!! I’m desperate!!! Can you help me please!!
+Taylor Bulk what's the problem?
SHC AUTOELECTRIC my Citroen randomly stopped working in the middle of town it was still on but wouldn’t drive it would try but not move a inch but now i have it home it won’t turn over at all
+Taylor Bulk from your description it would sounds like part of the drive train is broken (clutch gearbox or maybe driveshaft has popped out).
Were there any noises? We're you moving at the time?
As for the car not starting is the battery ok?
SHC AUTOELECTRIC there’s no noises or anything but before hand it was making a weird noise but I fixed it it was the senses and that but it still wasn’t the same as when I brought it it is worth just getting a new gearbox or a whole engine
That would be a bit extreme. Is there any electrical power and what sort of gearbox is it?
I haven't problem saying my foglamp faulty when press brakes
Would this help ? I have no bulbs out
C2 vts
Cheers
Does this work for peugeot 208?
It works on Peugeots as well
Will this reset fuel average consumption?
I'm sure you can do that another way, but I would expect this to clear any driving data
I'm sure you can do that another way, but I would expect this to clear any driving data
Ok, thank you for your advice
will this fix central locking issue
On what car
Try this
Switch on the ignition and check system's functionality.
Hold lock button on key down for 10 seconds.
Remove key open & close door test central locking system.
on v2 vts all other electrics work but central locking dosent work proply. i can lock all doors fron inside and i have changed battrie in fobbs. i can only lock drivers door from out side with key and thats it
think thats allready been tried
This is not going to work. Check the fuses in the passenger footwear. Sometimes poorly fitted radios can cause problems.
Where is the BSI located?
Normally a small black plastic box on the passenger side foot well. Depending on model.
And if your driver window won't open?
I see a problem. Leave someone inside the car. The window open part is only so you can operate the switches without opening the door first.
@@bry940 I have tried this on my Peugeot partner 2013 van, (no crank), BSI not communicating. Hasn't reset it, (obvs got fault somewhere), but i did this on my own, opened bonnet, fed jump leads through passenger door to battery pos lead and one on battery pos terminal, closed door, then connected jump leads in van when needed battery connecting and disconnected to follow reset procedure. That may help someone on their own!
What songs?
No idea
@@bry940 no, the next song?
Hi
I have a C2. Will this procedure clear the anti theft fault? The engine is just turning over and won't start. dash says anti theft fault.
TIA
No. But it is worth checking that the key is straight on at the ignition. I once had a customer that lots of key rings and the the key would bend away taking the chip away from the sensor ring.
Ah French cars, Which other car manufacturer has a ridiculous procedure as this? Why cant i just take the negative terminal off the battery and back on again like every other car in the world except the french??? POS
