HBOL sats they're in the passenger fusebox, (12-fuse) as opposed to passenger fusebox, (28-fuse).
Okay help me out - I can't find the right ones, drivers side (inside car) fusebox goes up to 28, then theres 6 underneath listed A-F
In the engine bay I don't think they go up as far as 34 and 35

I can only repeat the old book of lies....

Lists up to fuse 40 for passenger fuesbox, but 5,20,21,24,26,28,33,36-39spare, 15=B+ for towing socket.
F1 is bottom left - F12 bottom right.
F13-17 next row up
F18-28 next row up
Top row (which appears to be separated from the lower 3 - guess this is where the '12-fuse' term comes from),
has F29 on the left, to F40 on the right. 34 & 35 are in the centre....
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)

Doesn't the D8 have A-F?

I know Pug messed about a lot with fuseboxes - My D9 coupe one has an upside down layout with 40 at the bottom left, but the fusebox itself is mounted the right way...

There's got to be another lot I'm missing. Both Haynes and the pug handbook contradict each other, in fact haynes has no listing for engine bay fuse box but mentions it in the fuses section!!
According to owners handbook 34 and 35 are under the drivers side but mine only goes up to 28. I've even tried removing the fusebox from it's mounting to see if there is another behind it but no joy. I've had enough of getting wet for one night so will leave it til the morning, hopefully I will have better luck then. If I find them I will post a pic.

It's not any of the fuses.
I spent all night and again this morning checking them all one by one. I rang Chris a minute ago and he's checked them all one by one and so we are waiting on an auto electrician to make an appearance later to find out what's causing the problem.

I just spoke to a peugeot mechanic who just used the words BSI and multiplex in the same sentence and I am now sh*tting myself and wondering if I can ask my Mum if she minds me getting a 2nd mortgage out.

Oh no :(

There's fuses and relays on the BSI itself isn't there? Maybe...?

An alternative to a new BSI is to nick a BSI, ECU and locks from a scrapper as someone else here has done that I think.

If it's a BSI to be honest I'm going to be pretty fecked off, maybe someone upstairs is telling me in a none too gentle voice to throw in the towel before it all ends in tears.

I would have thought that if the BSi was playing up then so would some other stuff?

Isn't there a bunch of connectors under the drivers carpet which can get worn/wet - these are the feeds for the light clusters, windows and all kinds I think. Might be worth a look?

Hello Mr. Welton 8)

I will have a look at them next, just got off the phone to a peugeot mechanic who reiterates after speaking to a peugeot electrician that it's got to be one of the fuses, at the very most some wiring burnt out but he's positive it's a fuse and has recommended changing every single fuse (taking a pic first so I don't screw it up) and putting a 5 amp even in the ones that didn't have one just in case either me or Chris or Dave have moved one over by accident.

P.S. I didn't post in the other thread because I was a bit shocked at the time when I read it but I hope you are ok now (I still can't put into words what I mean and it sounds pretty lame after what you went through but you know what I mean mate).

Ook.. forgot to tell you all what it was..
The original connector which had a pin melted was cleaned up by mechanic with flat bladed screwdriver. Unfortunately the lights were on and so was the ignition. As the blade touched bare metal it didn't blow any fuses but instead shorted the lights on the back, so they got a sparky in to take a feed from the other rear cluster apparently. Whilst Martin the sparky was at it he helpfully repaired the lack of a boot interior light, which had been a pain for years, every time I put the holder back in the hole it used to arc. All done for the bargainous price of a tenner.
Obviously at some point I need to get a new piece of harness and rear bulb holder but for now it's doing it's job so it can wait til the New Year.
