OBD/Diagnostic socket

[L12PUG]

Hi

As a newbie in the club, first I'd like to say hi everyone!

If I may, I have a number of questions about my 406.......

1. I have a fault code reader but could anyone tell me where the socket is and if my 16 pin plug will fit (my car is a 1999 "V" reg)?

2. My car is a GLX and it looks like it should have a trip computer but the wiper swith top doesn't work it (has it been replaced or does my model not have the trip function)?

I have had this car for a good 3 years and apart from it needing a new engine when the Cambelt went (15 months to the day that a Pug dealer fitted it!) it has been a great car, reliable, comfortable and quiet.

I'd appreciate any advice that anyone may have, many thanks in advance.

The socket is behind the longer blanking plate to the right of headlight height adjusting switch, it is 16-pin.

Don't know on GLX spec. - all models tended to get more goodies as time went on, but someone will probably be along to tell you shortly.

Hi

Thanks for the info on the socket - it is rather well hidden, but at least I know where it is now - i'd never have looked there!!

Mine was in by the fuses - drop the cover to access the fuses, and there it is

Has the stalk got two arrows that look like a ffwd/rev symbol on a stereo on it??

[L12PUG]

Hi

Yes - thanks for your reply - I have a stalk as you describe for the stereo, though it does not do anything with the MFD (other than with the stereo of course) - I seem to recall from a hire car years back that the trip was controlled from a push button on the end of the wiper stalk.

It seems daft to me for the car to have CD changer, auto wipers etc and not a trip computer.......I wondered if the stalk had been changed........

[plod]

No, I wasn't referring to the stereo stalk

I was referring to the wiper stalk, which if it has trip functionality has two triangles in the same style as a ffwd/rev symbol on a stereo

This advert has a stalk without trip

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PEUGEOT-406-2 ... 41588b30dd

Whereas this stalk has trip - indicated by the two triangles in a ffwd/rev style of a tape player/cd/video/dvd blah blah blah

Sorry - what a numbhead moment on my part lol.

The one on mine is the one without the arrows.

Reason for asking is when the battery has been disconnected and I re set the time etc it asks for a distance unit where I pick Km or Miles so I assumed it should have a trip function, though it doesn't request any gallon/litre data.......

I wondered if the original stalk had perhaps broken and had been replaced with the current one which hasn't the functionality.

Would the trip work if I got a stalk with the arrows......?

It would be handy to have a trip function.

Thanks for the help this far matey,

Sounds favourite that in the car's life it has had the stalk changed for the non trip stalk from the info you've gave

Quite often they fetch about £25 second hand on the bay of e, although I managed to get a brand new one of there for the same price
Think the seller was Blackcountryjaguar

[plod]

I'm off out now to Donnington Park for a car meet, but if you want to PM me your vin number i'll check Service Box later to see if it lists trip on your cars characteristics

There are other members on here with SB, who may offer to look this info up prior to my getting back, but the offer is there

[L12PUG]

Hi plod - I think I sent a PM........computers are not my strength - if you don't get it let me know and I'll try again.

Thanks for doing that for me though, hope I can return the favour some time.

[RayneR]

just buy the appropriate stalk with trip computer for your car and activate the trip computer with PP2000 .... i bought one stalk from ebay which was pretty cheap ... because my 406 didn't had trip computer too like yours

[L12PUG]

Hi - Sorry to be a "Dummy David" - could you explain the PP2000 thing (and how to do it!)?

Hopefully plod will find out I should have it anyway but all advice on this is very gratefully received.....

Many thanks

Hi - Sorry to be a "Dummy David" - could you explain the PP2000 thing (and how to do it!)?

Hopefully plod will find out I should have it anyway but all advice on this is very gratefully received.....

Many thanks

PP2000 = Peugeot Planet 2000 - the dealer's diagnostic computer system, (some of us have Chinese 'clones' that can do the necessary configuration to enable some of the gadgetry your car could have had, assuming the hardware / wiring is there).

If you post your location, someone nearby may be able to do it for you. I'd suggest you try enabling the trip computer first and if you find your car supports it, then look round for a cheap stalk from a scrappy, or someone breaking a car on here......

[Shamless Plug Mode]Why not come to our meet at Gaydon next Saturday, I'll check it out for you, FOC? [/SPM]
