Peugeot 208 touchscreen problems

Car: Peugeot 208
Variant: 1.2
Model Year: 2013

Categories: Electrics, ECU, Warnings & Lights

Every now and then my touch screen remains off when I turn the ignition on. I´ve tried taking out the 20A fuse and put it back in again. Sometimes that´s enough but sometimes it won´t start at all so I have to drive in silence without radio :( Then when I try again next time it works. I´ve tried buying new fuses but it doesn´t make any difference. Every day is like a lottery, you never know. I´ve had this car for about a year but the problem just started like a few weeks ago. Do you got any idea what the problem is and what I can do to fix it? x

Check your car battery voltage , if low it can cause this type of problem on a lot of cars until a run often allows the alternator to boost the battery a little

Allright, thank you I will try that. So for this I need to buy a multimeter? And literally just by driving around, the battery should charge up a bit and the problem could possibly be solved ?

If you cant borrow one , this or similar is always handy to have . A lot of fast fit centres usually test batteries but driving to one boosts the battery , Always best to check after car lying overnight and prior to starting

Alright perfect, it´s probably best to buy one so I´m always prepared in the future. Thanks for the help!
