That's a BSI function. Connect lexia and change it.

What size screen are you using?

Your car is listed as a 2002. Its got a 2002 BSI, you don't need any updates to read early cars. Updates are for later cars.

The is an INI file for lexia but I don't know if that will help with Diagbox, worth a try?

You may want to do this if some of the lexia screen seems to be off the page.

Shut down any running Lexia or Diagbox

find the file

C:\APPLIC\LEXIA\EXE\ecran.ini

and open it with notepad.exe

edit the lines that contain

-largeur_ecran = xxxx
-hauteur_ecran = xxx

and replace the xxx's with your laptop screen resolution

Save the file, start lexia.


largeur_ecran is display_width and

hauteur_ecran is display_height (in pixels)

Its in this lexia topic (for reading not for posting in )

its a 54 plate

tried to edit file went down to 800x600 no different so went down to 600 x 480 still the same I just get the first 3 letters CIT then its off screen I'm using a 10inch toshiba netbook and it wont resize the screen for some reason

so ive binned the netbook as it had a fit and completely stopped with a black screen that even a format hd didn't fix so I loaded lexia on my windows 10 gaming laptop and it works but it scans and asks for internet connection to find the car details does it need to go on line as my signal wont reach the garage or can I just put in the rpo if I can find it im using diagbox 7.57 do I need to update it

You listed it as a 2002, see where the confusion would start?

welly24 wrote:can I just put in the rpo

Yes. Its on the door. If not you can make one up that is correct for the age of the BSI (Car). The RPO is just a date anyway.

Information on the RPO or ORGA birthdays.

Great, its good to hear what works and what doesn't. Thanks

too small screen. 14" with a 4:3 aspect works well, but so do others.

welly24 wrote: im using diagbox 7.57 do I need to update it

No, I think you are quite advanced there, well past 2004 models.

welly24 wrote:does it need to go on line

Sometimes the vendor of your lexia will ask you NOT to connect it to the internet, or it may be in one of the update files. Lexia and Diagbox will run without internet on the versions I have used.

Lexia installs often have to follow some quite strict instructions, probably because they are not official. Follow all the instructions for installing that came with the box - probably on DVD. Even down to the correct OS be it virtual or real depending if you hacve 32 or 64 bit environments and all that. There is plenty of help to read-up about installing Lexia (2004 will need lexia) in the lexia help read topic here citroen-c3-tips/lexia-and-obd-diagnosti ... -t655.html

For RPO there is a topic that helps with RPO and an explanation in this topic here citroen-c3-tips/citroen-c3-orga-rpo-rp- ... -t204.html

You can't find those options in lexia? They are there. You need to dig around. You may even find the same thing in 2 different places and both may need changing, it depends on what you are changing.

welly24 wrote:doesn't seem to save anything I change

I don't know why that is. Its normally just a case of ticking the * to activate and F1 for configuration as seen in the picture

You have a PM that may be what you are asking?
