Lexia / PP2000 / Diagbox Warning

by GiveMeABreak » 29 Jul 2018, 15:57

Because there have been a few recent cases where people have bricked an ECU and left their car potentially inoperable using Diagnostic tools, here's a little common sense guide that may be useful.

Note: L3 = Lexia 3 , PP2K = Peugeot Planet 2000 , DB = Diagbox

Here are some basic points to take note of to try and avoid the potential doom and...

Hi to all interested in buying a Lexia (I'm one)
Not sure if this has been linked to before but if the sellers' claims are true about PCB quality it might be interesting:

10% off would bring the price down competitively. BTW I'm no expert on Lexias whatsoever and I have no connection with this seller.

Last post

Engine speed sensor on a 1.9TD is on the engine 'rear' flange, on the back side - it picks up the signal from the flywheel. It's brown IIRC and secured by a single 8 or 10mm hex bolt. Not that far up, above the inboard end of the OS driveshaft. You'd need it on ramps to get to it.

Troubleshooting radiator fans '99 Xantia

by veroni » 31 Jul 2018, 15:43

First post

The radiator fans on my 1999 Xantia aren't working, and neither is the AC. The fuses and temperature gauge seem to be working. Removing the brown temperature sensor plug when idling does not lead to the fans spinning up. Perhaps I'd have to check the relays.

Has anyone got any tips on how to locate the issue?

Last post

There are a group of relays on the front between the fans that control them, there is also a Bitron unit under the nearside headlamp, also check conduit running across the front end below radiator for broken wires.

Really - I wouldn't bother with Lexia stand alone cersion - it has not been supported independently from Diagbox for a long time.
Can you simply not clean up your system and install Diagbox - it may be a lot easier as Diagbox does all the launching of PP2000 or Lexia or Diagbox dependng on the vehicle automatically.

Yes, because on some newer versions of Diagbox it uses the wireless / network adapter hardware code for activation purposes. Not having it on can cause constant activation nag screens, making it really impossible to use.

Did anyone have any problems buying a cheaper Lexia 3

by Rosanbo » 21 Apr 2018, 23:21

First post

I am thinking of getting a Lexia 3.

It would be good to have a sticky post on this board about what version is the latest version and what versions have gone before. And what year they changed. Pictures of the assembled article with leads and pictures of it connected to a car and being worked with. Explaining what leads come in the kits and what...

Ok, great, I only need to get one with OBD2, I wouldn't be going anywhere near leads like that.

Has anyone here tried FAPlite -android software? Any recommendations on (preferably slim and cheap) bluetooth dongle that works with it?

Last post

Got hold of the OBD adapter only to find FAPlite doesn't support my ECU.

I downloaded FAPlite not long ago and I'm pretty sure it listed all the ECU's supported in the description on the play store, so if you didn't check your car was supported then..... ?

None of these 3rd party solutions do everything that a Lexia 3 does so you'd always want...

C Crosser Diag Communication Problem

by bkod » 09 Apr 2018, 19:35

First post

Hello there.
I have a similar problem with lexia trying to cooperate with c-crosser... No dialogue with any of the ECUs at all... ELM327 can read faults no bother. Lexia works fine with C4. Google told me that c4 and c-crosser use a different transmission protocols. Any suggestions what to do? Look for a fault in c-crosser's diagnostic socket or...

Last post

Unfortunately new optocouplers haven't resolved remaining communication problems.
I will probably try to replace the relays with a set of decent ones.

Hi All. Well after reading many threads, I am confused. I have installed Diagbox 6.01 in a laptop with XP running, then I had many troubles activating it. After about the 5th attempt I got a message "activation sucessful. I tried to run it in lexia mode on my Xantia, there was no dialogue with any ECU,s. I tried to run it on a new Peugeot...

Last post

I have solved it. Myself.
I have found a file PSA Interface Checker Install by...guess who...starts with scary.. and if you start up Diagbox and then minimize it and run this program you can downgrade your reader temporary to a lower version (it will be upgraded again when you start Diagbox next time) - I had 4.3.0 and tested 4.1.6 and it worked...

Hello all I'm trying to track down my issue regarding the Fuel Access Flap Open on the dash , looking into this deeper after buying a Lexia 3 ive noticed today a P0420 code saying ..Differential Exhaust Pressure Signal.. when I look into the pull down menu it says , Particle Filter Overload, is this the DPF , or the Cat...

Thanks

Last post

If there are any fault codes associated with the emissions or engine, the Engine ECU probably will not allow it. This is so it can protect the engine and its components. A manual regeneration takes a toll on the engine and is not recommended very often, as it really shouldn’t be needed with the additive system, so long as the vehicle is not...

Getting the hang of Diagbox

Hi, new to the forum and just purchased a copy of Diagbox. Eventually managed to get it all loaded and working on an old laptop running Windows XP so will be more or less standalone in that respect. Have had it connected to my C5 Estate 163 Nav 2010, found it worked under the X7 variant. Came up with a shed load of fault codes, some I knew about...

Last post

Hi Ronnie, yes Diagbox works fine with Windows 7 - That's what I use all the time. Again, make sure you take a copy of your licence file once installed as it will likely be different for the partition on which you install it.

As for the post 7.62 versions, there has been incremental loss of telecoding features, as PSA move more and more to...

Is this 'full chip'?

Last post

The lack of the 10k resistor is known to cause communication issues with CAN systems (depending on model), but there are a stack of chips, relays and Optocouplers that are not found in the full kits - something the Chinese makers did to reduce costs - which is often why they are much cheaper that the full kits. It becomes more of a problem on...
