franglais Posted August 6, 2017 Posted August 6, 2017 Morning all. I`m going wrong somewhere with my Lexia, Thanks to the excellent threads on here I`ve got the Lexia set up on an old Win XP laptop. Seems to working fine and communicating with my car (C5 2010 diesel manual). I`ve topped up the additive tank as the dash was showing low level. It took about 4 litres. Now I want to reset the level so the car knows it`s full.I can`t see how to do that in the maintenance, fault finding or repair sections.I can get to a section about "personalised maintenance of fuel additive system" seems to be about gauging how much fluid remaining in the tank,which offers a list of codes, clicking on them the system asks for mileage, engine and gearbox details. What should I be looking for please? Quote
franglais Posted August 6, 2017 Author Posted August 6, 2017 Been playing about with this all day now. Best to stop before I do something silly. Next step is to wipe every thing off the laptop and do a fresh install. Quote
paul.h Posted August 6, 2017 Posted August 6, 2017 I do not know about using the Lexia, but the Citroen service box procedures suggest only 1.57 litres of eolys 176 is put in when new for the 160 hp 2.0 hdi. Plus it should use about 0.4 litres every 30000 km. So you may have put in enough for about 300000 km which possibly could be outside the range when you find out how to reset the level. Quote
MikeLane Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 Hope this will help you as it's probably the same for Peugeots and Citroens and I think the Digibox is like a Lexia (?) http://www.peugeotforums.com/forums/electrical-54/how-reset-dpf-fluid-additive-level-counters-pp2000-21676/ Quote
franglais Posted August 13, 2017 Author Posted August 13, 2017 Thanks for replies. Seems the Lexia/diagbox wasn`t communicating with the car. I`ve taken the laptop right back to factory settings, it`s an XP SP3 machine. Fresh code from Microsoft, so should be clean. No anti-virus (except from Microsoft) and no internet connection at all to interfere with it. Tried installing the everything again, but getting nowhere fast. I`ve messaged the provider and am waiting for a reply. I think a twin cylinder single carburettor 4-speed manual may be my next purchase...... Quote
