Fuse Box Help

Post by FELLA »

Hi first post here :D

I've bought a 2001 (Y reg) 406 2.0 Executive however I didn't get a user/owners manual with it.

The front main Head Light is out, I bought a new bulb but it's not the bulb so I'm assuming it must be the fuse.

However with having no manual I don't know which fuse is which?

Can anyone help out please, a full schematic of the fuse box would be even better.

Thanks for your time.

Hello and Welcome Fella 8)

I'm assuming it's a D9 (same headlights as mine :arrowd: ). Think they did the facelift in 2000?? :?

So you need the engine compartment fuse box (as opposed to the one under the dash) and these are the headlight fuses;

Fuse# Rating Function
9 15A LH Dipped Beam
10 15A RH Dipped Beam
11 10A LH Main Beam
12 10A RH Main Beam

There's also the following note.....
the book of the words wrote: The maxi-fuses provide additional protection for the electrical systems. All work must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Yeah right, you even need the stealer to change a fuse..... :shock: :lol:

Might be useful to print that out for future reference.

Hope that helps.

Ok what I will do is, scan in the Fuse box grids for both the D9 and the D8 models later on tonight and then maybe they could be sticky's on the forum for everyones reference. 8)

[edit] ok here they are:

D9 Fuses:

A Haynes manual is always a good buy, especially if you don't have the handbook...

That's great thanks a lot for your help guys.

I wondered what D8 and D9 meant when I signed up, I had no clue to what it referred to so I just clicked D8 :? :lol:
Is there a definitive way of knowing.

haynes manuals are good but they don't cover all models, besides I could post here and save myself a few bob :cheesy:

Thanks again

Sorry to be ignorant (or stupid) but the numbers you've specified here don't correspond to the screenshots of the car manual ...
On the second D9 model screenshot it says fuse #29 in the Internal Fascia is the LH main beam headlight. Is this dependant on the model, or am I missing something here ...? :?

Hey how weird is that? Maglite's D9 manual is different to mine..... :shock:

Now I'm confused :? :!:


:arrowd:


Just had a look at mine and it's definitely right for my car, so there must be different ones depending on model as you say :?

Very odd... :|
