Hi I have a 2003 pluriel.
I had a problem with the BSI and it had to be virginized.
I have the security code for the car but I am looking for someone with the tools and know how to come and code the BSI to the car.
I live in Sedgley near Wolverhampton DY3 area. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

If you have 'virginised' a BSI and this means all the programming has been removed/overwritten, you should have taken a copy of all the configuration before doing anything like that. Or did you just have the ECU to BSI and KEYS programming removed?

If you don't get any response, your next step may be getting it to the dealer to access the Citroen UK database that holds all the configuration of every pluriel made. They can access this to reprogram the BSI.

If you want to have a go yourself, you need a Lexia clone tool (from here), and a windows 7 laptop. Have a look at this topic about Lexia to get some information about it.

But there are no guides on reprogramming the BSI from scratch on here without a backup or access the the Citroen database.
