C3 Wont Start ,things Not Working

[Guest fed up and wet]

Hi, can anyone help me PLEASE

I have a 1.4 petrol 2002 C3. A couple of weeks ago the eletrics stopped working, It turned out to be the BSI unit. The car locked its self with the keys in the ignition so I had to let it run out of petrol.

since changing the unit, I have put petrol in her but she wont start, also certain eletrics wont work, hrw, heater blower, remote locking, etc. [battery working ok in key fob]

Many thanks

Ian :)

Welcome to the forum.

Sounds as if a fuse has failed. Check them all including the maxi fuses. On our Picasso we had a problem where the engine stopped and would not restart plus other electrical items going through the ignition switch did not work. Turned out to be one of the maxi fuses.

So you've replaced the BSI:

- have you had it programmed to the vehicle

- did you buy it from a Dealer or a breakers yard?

- Do you realise the engine immobilizer is part of the BSI.

- Have you tried starting it with the old BSI?
