hi
i have a picasso 6fz e/code non starter recovered to me yesterday
siemens 206 mux t12001
car was parked friday night with no known faults, refuses to fire, cranks ok, i have in bsi absence of comms with engine ecu
on live data iit recognises 2 keys, no keys sync'd
engine coolant temp displayed at 215 deg. c. which seems a bit strange

engine ecu sagem 2000 pm1 / 2
p1612 no-start code save
ecu locked
matched ecu
awaiting response from bsi
all other live data not available

autodata don't have any w/diags. for e/management or pin data
anyone any ideas or diags. please
done bsi soft re-boot (3min.)
re-coded ign keys, run out of data now am erring towards bsi but would rather prove it than guess!

Steve

hi paul
injectors receive 1 pulse when 1st cranked, no live data displayed, no rpm signal etc.

acquired citroen s/ware manual but i can't get it to display any images (HTML)

anyone got any diagrams please, it's like a rats nest behind the dash & AD. don't have anything listed, it's a 6fz engine code
thanks in advance

Steve

Hi Steve
Has this got an inhibitor switch ??? read some where on here about similar problems caused by coil spring breaking over night & triggering inhibitor switch

Hi Peter
thanks for the response, you're getting your switches mixed up, inhibitor switch would be on an auto, this is a manual transm.
inertia switch is what you are referring to & no it's not got one fitted nor are the springs broken
thanks anyway.

Hi Steve,
If, your temp reading is correct and isn't because of system mismatch, then perhaps the system is preventing an engine start due to the "reported" hi temp ! I don't know if this system is capable of that or not but could be a possibilty - have you tried starting with temp sensor disconnected ?
I have some info, I can email to you.
I will check your profile for email address.

Regards
Dave

Hi Dave
you're a scholar, ta for that.
no i haven't tried starting with the ect disconnected, hadn't considered that, by the time i get to posting on places like this my patience has worn quite thin & i develop a can't see the wood for the trees approach!
all the stress of self employment, employing staff, sickness & paternity leave, in that order i guess!!
Thanks Steve

they do suffer from water into the bsi unit generally when a windscreen has been replaced, but they generally suffer from wipers working on ther own and central locking playing up. ray
