Talk about the 406's electrical system, what wires do what, how to add extra functionality, etc.

I have forgotten nearly all the French I learnt at school - it does not help me where I live now so I have no occasion to use it. I have to put it through Babelfish but it does not help with the slang they use. There are pictures though...
Hmm good then :twisted: , just need them enabled in BSI? ( if there is that option, guess there is because it is an option for peugeot to enable or not, or they just removed the dashboard lamp :roll: ) , i have to check this in my garage he has peugeot planet.

My french isn't good too :( , would be great to find seats without the memory, just the normal eletric ones.

I have some other questions about other stuff, do i open new topic ?

Thank you For everything really

There's no dashboard lamp for the heaters, I don't think they'll have anything to do with the BSI - check the wires for voltage.

If your questions are not to do with the seats it would be best to start new topics in the appropriate sections, otherwise it could become confusing :shock:

i wasn't talking about the heaters , it was talking about the side airbags, there is a lamp on dashboard ( at least mine won't come up obviously it's not activated/not have them but on my friend there is ).

Ok Then, Thank you , you were really really helpful . :oops: 8)
