Hello from Indonesia

Post by WAVA »

Hello everybody I was just joining this forum. I already used Peugeot for many years, from 505 model, 405 and now 406 D9 XU10J4. I also use Toyota but for comfort nothing can beat French car !!! .
Back to about a year ago I had electrical problem 406, initial problem was A/C won't on, I fixed by replacing AC relay in BSI, few months later I got windshield wiper gone wild, it's really pissed me off since it was in the middle of long and heavy rainy season so I leaved 406 in garage for months, now I am going back and hoping I can get it fixed.

Just to share : If you want to replace the AC relay make sure to choose relay that has same or closer resistance (don't remember the value). If you use lower resistance than standard relay (usually bigger relay has lower resistance) you will fry the driver chip!!!

Cheers..
