Lexa / Suspension Pump

[Old Mosher]

Hi. My 01 auto 2.2Hdi exclusive's pump has packed up. About two years ago the main power connecter came loose, I found the fault and fixed it but one of the two pins was a little melted so I'm not surprised its gone.

Now I live Thrapston, a Lexia black hole, so I'm out on a limb. If I get my hands on a S/H pump is there any hope of success without Lexia.

Could I graft a good pump motor onto my unit so as to keep the same controller. Do I need to get a specific pump as my car is and has a sport mode.

If you look at the parts diagrams there are a few different pump part nos. depending on whether the car has variable or unvariable power steering and headlight adjustment and whether it is a heavy duty suspension pump. Maybe you could look to see if the controller can be removed from your pump to avoid the need for programming.

Hi Paul, thanks for the reply.

Everyone in my house has a Pug or Citroen so I've given in and bought Lexir/Planet. Now al I have to do is figure out how to work the thing.

The pump decided to work again for now but I bet it won't be for long. Can I identify the pump using Lexia?

I have not used a Lexia but it is easy to look on the parts diagrams using your VIN (VIS). If you have not already registered on the service.citroen site, you can do this as another professional and a member of the Citroen Owners Club and the parts can be seen as a free service. http://service.citroen.com/do/changerParametres

Defiantly something going off. Last night the suspension wouldn't authorise anything but medium, when I connected planet it said the rear transducer was open or short circuit. Cleaned it up and all was ok. Today it still works as normal height wise but felt stiff. Connected PP but it wont have any dialog with the suspension system, Or the sun roof for that matter.

the comunication problem could be a fuse but lexia is quite hard to use, not as nice a pp2000.
