Hi

Fuse F8 in the BSI fuse box

You may have not found all the fuses, check Citroen C3 Fuse Box Locations topic and scroll down to 2006

thanks for your reply , but there is no f8 fuse ,or location in the bsi box inside the car

If you don't have that fuse fitted, that explains why that circuit doesn't work.

FIT the FUSE.

But be prepared to have that blow, because someone has been there before you and obviously removed the fuse for a reason (smoke?)

If there is no space for a F8 fuse or markings, how can I try putting a fuse in ?

When ignition is turned on the dashboard bleeps for a little while, and also if I press the tripometer button in for a while , also the stereo took in a cd but I have no control of this due to no central computer controls or lights , also no hazard lights please can anyone help ? All fuses been double checked

I doubt it.

Did you read the reply by Arfur Dent?

Did you follow his links to your problem?

You said this

But then you say

the stereo took in a cd

So if you really did check all the fuses and you still have a fault like this, then the BSI is probably faulty and you will need a complete set of BSI, KEY and ECU to fix it, then reprogram it with Lexia.

But if you have a roof fault too, it is probably not going to be worth repairing.

Thanks for your reply, yes there is also a roof and boot and glass window fault , I am not worried about the roof working just the dash and boot, maybe i can go to a breakers and get these parts !!! Would you mind sending a list in process of illumination so maybe I don't need all ? Many thanks

Being a Mk1 LHD Pluriel, check or recheck fuse F15 in the fusebox by your left knee (under the steering wheel).
This fuse supplies power to the instrument panel, aircon panel, central display and audio. There are two supplies of power to the radio F4 and F15. F4 is permanent power for the memory (and obviously loads CDs), F15 is "on " power.
Tail gate; If your central locking is not working check F16. If it is working, you should hear a very tiny "click" of the micro switch in the tail gate switch push button when you push on it. The usual suspect is the electrical micro switch or the mechanical actuator that you press to activate the switch. You can get to these by removing the inner liner to the tail gate.
