Flat Battery causing computer errors (1 Viewer)

[Campers@Leisure]

Hi, I have a problem with warning lights coming on after a flat battery on autosleepr Lancashire 2013. I have seen a post by Kool Kroozer dated 3rd Jan 2015 with the same problem, wearing EDB failure ABS Engine management light on speedo not working, but he doesn't say how he fixed it.
I have been to Peugeot dealer & they reset it, but next day it's come on again, any body know how to resolve this ?

Do you know what the fault code was?

@Kool Kroozer may be able to answer the OPs question.

You can tag ppl and they get a an alert so he/she may/may not come along and give you the answer

Yep as you know i disconnected my battery to charge it up as it kept going flat while in storage (but the way around it is solar and a battery master) I drove past a peugeot dealership while out in the peak district and told them the problem i was having and they reset it for me there an then, but when i drove up the road for half an hour and turned the engine off for a coffee break - when we decided to continue after starting the engine all the fault lights came back on again (fkin crap) I then booked it in with my local dealer, they then diagnosed i needed a new clock cluster which would cost in the region of £800, but as it was a new van it was done under warranty... I asked when picked it up if it was a more up to date cluster or just a replacement ? I was told it was a replacememnt, so the poor buggers who now have our van will probably be in the same situation as we/you and many others ... To be honest i am glad i have a Renault pulling our house, no electrical problems like on the fiat ducatos and no mods have to be done to get the rain water to drain away as it should when it hits the scuttle under the windscreen.. I am pretty sure i read either on here (FUN) or on the internet that someone sent their clocks away to a company who did the repair for about £300 ish and gave a lifetime guarantee or somethink similar to that effect.

Cartronix at Waterlooville repair the cluster for £150 with lifetime warranty, I had mine done there. I dropped my off it was ready a couple of hours later, they will take the cluster out for you.

Cartronix seems the way forward C@L... One thing i would certainly guarantee is that by buying a new cluster will be a waste of money IMO - It will only happen again, i dont know what mileage your van has but ours was 12 months old from new with about 7k on the clock, personally think its pretty poor of citreon/ducato/fiat to keep churning this crap out full well knowing the parts will fail as its an on going problem - yet do fkall to correct it !

Been doing it for years.....remember juddergate.

Took a long time for them to admit there was a fault.

Severe juddering in reverse gear, up a gradiant usually.
The original fiat response was to rev it higher in reverse.
Then they eventually admitted a fault and came up with modified rubber engine/gearbox mounts.
Search 'juddergate' in the search box.

And a lower reverse gear.
Only appeared to affect some vans, my last Hymer (2008) was fine but because of the stigma over it I phoned Fiat and said it juddered and had the mods done, just in case it caused problems at sale time.
