I'm not good at this, so my friend helped me with three days .Although download software to the device,it still not worked. If you need to equipment number, I can send you.Thanks for any help. :yuck:

That will almost certainly pirated software at that price. If so, it is bound to be "flakey"!!

Lexia-3 is just for Citroen's AFAIK ... you need to use PP2000 (peugoet planet 2000) on your pug ... I don't think they work across the two makes .... you do use the same cables!


Don't try the internet download to update your software if it came from China ... that's only available for the dealers and registered garages. It will work out you have a cloned version and corrupt the software.

Just use the copies from the CDs included with the interface cables or download them from another friendly peugeot forum site via rapidshare (they are not difficult to find via google!)



I'm not expert as I've only just got my cables and pp2000 but I manage to update the bsi on our hatchback to get the rear speakers working (the Style model doesn't come with them as standard so I fitted some myself but then the radio/bsi doesn't recognise them). I also managed to get it to work on AM ... something my dealer didn't do when they swapped out the radio cassette for a radio cd in 2003! :roll:
