Hello
Interested to hear if anyone is having electrical faults on RCZ 200. Ive had two problems in the last three months. The car is 2years4 months old. Not inspiring much confidence as car would not start. 1st problem a relay 2nd problem temperature sensor.
Water can get into the boot lid mechanism, it's a known fault that Peugeot have recognised. The whole of rear bumper has to come off to change the boot lid switch and make it water tight. :crazy:
If this occurs it can play havoc with the parking sensors, central locking goes bonkers, indicators would go into disco mode without using the stalk, even my radio had a life of it's own, switching on and off.
The car would start fine, but it wasn't very pleasant driving it as the boot would keep popping open, even at high speed
Electrics are a pain if they go wrong, it took ages for my dealer to pin point the fault.
Because my faults were intermittent my dealer thought it was my imagination, until I took it over to them just after it had rained, it was mad, the car had a life of it's own. :lol:
I later learned that Peugeot had found a fault with the seal on some of the Z's boot switch's.
I would suggest that if anyone's Z plays up electrically, it might be worth having the boot switch checked out, especially if you notice issues a few days after rain or washing. :eusa-think:
