[stevemc]

i have a 99 110 hdi lx,my bsi unit is causing lots of faults ,mfd panel aways on,loosing speedo and tacho,etc ,etc
if i buy one from the same model can i just plug it in ,or does it have to be programmed by peugeot ,or can anyone do it
thanks

Have you tried re setting the bsi there is a link to the website on here but dont know how to put a link to it

[stevemc]

tried a reset ,but did not help ,i am getting more faults everyday

BSIs cannot be reprogrammed, so if you want to use a 2nd hand one you'll need the engine ECU, possibly other bits too

yep as mjb says, and you'll need the immobiliser chip from the key to the donor 406 otherwise you wont be able to start your engine, i swapped my bsi over to put cruise control in, however you may end up with additional miles on the clock as a result

Steve,I sympathise.Hve a look at my ignition probs.Seems this is "common".Who manufactured this piece of crap anyhoo?Best of luck and hope yours is NOT needing replacement.

BBA reman can repair your original bsi usually, if they cant, they can virginise a used one to be programmed into your car using peugeot planet, they are probably your cheapest option to get your car running again
