Fitting Com2000/complete Stalk System To Xsara Picasso 2003

[kennymcd]

I am fitting a new com2000 unit with complete stalk system to my  citroen xsara picasso. Can anyone tell me if this com2000 will need programming by the dealer or is it a 'plug and play' unit. thanks

There seems to be a difference in the parts from car RPO 09492 and the notes I gave in your other post appear to apply to the earlier parts. You only need a Lexia diagnostic to be done if your car has ESP to align the steering wheel sensor.

 

The following is from the Citroen procedures for the cars from RPO 09492 but without the diagrams since these will not copy -

 

1. Removing

ESSENTIAL : Put the wheels in the straight ahead position.

Disconnect the battery.

Remove :

• The steering column cowling
• The steering wheel (see the relevant operation) (earlier models to RPO 09491, 33 Nm, later models 20 Nm. later models do not turn rotary switch)
• The driver’s air bag (see the relevant operation) - held by 2 torx bolts no. 30.

CAUTION : Do not exert any force on the connectors of the driver’s airbag and the horn, when passing them through the steering wheel port.

Prevent the rotary connector from rotating, using an elastic band (supplier "DAV ; SYLEA ; VALEO").

 

   

Release the harnesses relating to the switching module under the steering wheel.

Unscrew the screw (1) several turns. (this looks as if it is a clamp around the column)

Unclip the switching module under the steering wheel from the steering column at " a"By means of a screwdriver(on each side).

Disengage the switching module under the steering wheel from the steering column.

CAUTION : Do not exert any pulling force on the harnesses relating to the switching module under the steering wheel.

Disconnect the connectors at " b".

N.B. : Each connector is marked with a colour.

 

2. Adjustments

 

   

A : make DAV ; SYLEA ; VALEO.

B : make EATON ; DELPHI.

ESSENTIAL : After adjusting, do not turn the rotary switch.

Turn the rotary switch ( 2) as far as possible clockwise.

Never exert force on the rotary switch.

Turn the rotary switch 2,5 turns anti-clockwise.

CAUTION : Orient the driver’s airbag and horn harnesses ( 3) upwards.

The point of the triangle " c" should be positioned opposite the linkage "d"(supplier "EATON ; DELPHI").

3. Refitting

ESSENTIAL : Replace any faulty parts.

Check that the road wheels are aligned straight ahead.

Check the condition of the 2 clips for locking the switching module under the steering wheel.

Connect the connectors on the switching module under the steering wheel.

Check the locking of the connectors of the switching module under the steering wheel.

Engage the switching module under the steering wheel on the steering column.

Check the locking of the switching module under the steering wheel.

Tighten the bolt (1) to 2 ± 0,5 daN.m.

Remove the guarantee label that is affixed to the rotary switch (supplier "DAV ; SYLEA ; VALEO").

Refit :

• The steering wheel (see the relevant operation)
• The driver’s air bag (see the relevant operation)
• The steering column cowling

Reconnect the battery.

Check the functioning of the switching module under the steering wheel.

 

4. Vehicles equipped with ESP (Electronic Stability Programme)

Calibrate the steering wheel angle sensor (LEXIA or PROXIA).

To perform this operation, select the menu "ABS (ABS/ESP)".

 

5. Control satellites

Remove :

• The control satellite for the radio
• The control satellite for the cruise control (if fitted)
• The clearance adjustment shims(if fitted)

Refit :

• The clearance adjustment shims (if fitted)
• The control satellites

can you tell me if this car has esp. Thanks

[paul.h]

If you have ESP there will be a button on the dash somewhere that lets you turn it off. Look in your handbook for the details.

Thanks for your help.
