Could be the stop solenoid

Hi I did a post on this a while back which highlighs the issues
http://dispatchexpertscudo.org.uk/forum … 2378#p2378

I fitted a Fiamma 200d bike rack, and hang 2 bikes of the back, which works out at about 28kg + 9kg for the rack. My main worry was stressing the narrow bits around the window, so I filled the inside with expanding foam to stiffen it all up. It's all worked well with no signs of damage after more than 15,000 miles with the bikes.

As for the spare wheel, I thought long and hard about it, and decided that I could do without. My theory was that the typical punctures are repairable with tyreweld or the gooey rubber plugs, coupled with a pump (built into the starter pack). Of course there is no fix for a shredded tyre, but its less likely, and I'll just roll with it - treat it like any other catastrophic failure.

I would have no problem buying one of these if I didn't already have a Ring RPP135 battery pack.
Bulky as it is, it has a built in tyre pump and a small inverter.

The name of the part is - rear door striker.
Last time I looked the part for my 2002 1.9d was
916422

From what I understand the solenoid plunger sits in diesel. I'm thinking that dodgy fuel (we are traveling in the Balkans at the moment) may be a factor, though I did change the fuel filter before we left. I wonder if some additive for cleaning injectors might help?

Did you ever get to the bottom of this?
Mine refused to start the other morning - no smoke and not even a kick. I reseated any connectors I could see around the fuel filter area and primed until hard. One last go and it started up.
It may have been coincidence but the evening before I drove through torrential rain with flash flooding. There was water in the engine bay - the felt above the aux belt area was damp.

Your 3 way fridge will draw something like 10A@ 12v continously. This would give about 5 hours on a 100Ah battery. Really the 12v input is only to keep an already cold fridge cold, when travelling between sites.
If your split relay does not have 12v aux/fridge out then you would need a seperate 12v 30A relay switched from the van 'engine running' relay which is easy to get from the glovebox fusebox.

Hi,

I've been meaning to post some info on this, so sorry for the long reply.

I assume that the key looks like this

Probably the easiest/cheapest way for you would be to get a secondhand key from eBay, and call a few Auto locksmiths to see if they can program the remote. Alternatively I've seen some people volunteer to reprogram on the citroen/peugeot forums - but you would need to have the vehicle PIN (see below) to do this.

The circuit boards never come up on eBay, but second hand keys do (Xantia/Xsara seem to be most common)- expect to pay £10-£15.

Unfortunately it's not a simple matter to program these

There are two types of key, the older IR key (I think these have a red LED on the key), and the newer RF key.
The only way to program the RF key is with the Peugeot/Citroen Lexia 3 diag interface - eBay ~£50.
The software that comes with these PP2000 is usually a hacked mashup that takes a lot of faffing about to get working (only runs on XP/ or XP virtual machine)
Once it is installed you will need the van pin code, which would have been on a card with the van docs - something like "JBS2". If you don't have the code there are people that can lookup the code for $25 - search for "citroen pin from vin"
Once all of this is working the scary part is that you have to reprogram all the remotes & transponders at once.
So if it screws up, you can be left with nothing.

Incidentally the transponders are one time programmable, so a when virgin key is programmed the first time, it is paired to the van - after that the transponder will only work with that vehicle. So getting a second hand key, means that you will need a new virgin transponder as well. Unfortunately different transponders seem to be in use. In my case (2002 van) I could read the transponder markings, which were PCF7931AS transponder ID33 however the guy I bought the key blanks from stated "A Philips ID33 (T5) transponder chip was used on the Peugeot Expert from 1997 to 2001. It then changed to a Philips Crypto II (T14)". The remotes are hard coded, and can be reused on different vehicles.

Getting the key cut requires a code eg  5064613, but online key cutters are able to work this out from a good photo. The key blade type is SX9 and the number for the blade (inc. transponder ID33) is 9926FG.

On my 2002, the main link popped out half way up a mountain in Spain - no gears at all. The socket on the link was made of plastic, which disintegrated. Even with the plastic bit missing the link could be tied back down with a tie wrap. The main problem was getting to the the link - I'd say it's impossible without getting it up on a ramp.
Incidently the new link design was slightly different, with a metal rather than a plastic socket.
