Has anyone had the same prob?
My car is 7 months old. About 3 months after i got it, the electrics gained a mind of their own. The dials go to Zero when driving and go back to normal once the car has been started again. The interior alarm often goes off for no reason. Sometimes if you turn off the car engine and take the keys out, the dash board lights up and a few of the warning signs come on with the 'Stop and Petrol' lights flashing. You have to turn the car on again a couple of times and finally the dash will go off. The LCD on the radio told me the brakes had failed last week and yesterday it said the passenger airbag had deactivated. The car has been back to the dealer twice in the last week. They changed the battery as they felt it was fautly but has made no difference to the electrics. Any one have same prob or heard of this mess?? -- so fed up at this stage.
Thanks!
Rene :)

I had a simular problem with mine. Whilst you were driving along the computer would reset itself (the dials would go back to 0 and reset, the STOP light would flash and the passenger airbag would be deactivated). It was due the 6000 service so they told be they would look at it then. They told me they replaced something called the elctronic cluster something to do with the dashboard (not sure). They said it was a problem they had before with other 206cc's (another problem known!!!) and since then it has been OK (fingures crossed).

Good Luck :!:

Hi,

Did the dealer fixed your problem? Did it reoccur after replaced the electronic duster? I have my CC only for about a week and have the same problem :(
