Electrical issues and fuse blowing | PEUGEOT

Hello everyone,

Six months ago, the fault occurred for the first time: all indicator lights came on while driving, message "ABS/ASR/ESP" defective, the engine does not accept gas and goes out, cannot be started afterwards.

Error list very long, all injection valves and ignition coils short circuit and at the same time no contact, both lambda probes defective and more.

The ADAC replaced the fuse F10 (30A), engine could then be started.

Workshop made various measurements, maximum current consumption at the battery 15A. Car then ran without problems until 4 weeks ago, same error. I replaced the fuse directly, car ran for 3 weeks. Last week same error, now the fuse blows immediately when trying to start again. The car has been reporting exhaust system defective with the error code P0170 for about 5 years, but without loss of performance. Error can be easily reset via OBD dongle and car scanner. Workshop (independent) has no direct idea, suspects defective lambda probe.

Perhaps one of you knows this problem?

LG, Andreas

The car was at the shop, an employee is from Peugeot. 5 minutes of troubleshooting, both lambda sensors shorted. 🙄😁 Thanks for the help, Andreas

    What is the F10 fuse responsible for? Looking for a short circuit or broken wire. A multimeter is the right tool…

    Hi, check the oxygen sensor heater (cable is grounded). Regards, Christian

    Unfortunately, only one solution can be marked as correct; both lambda sensors were defective. Thanks for the help, Andreas.
