Thanks Ryan for this detailed explanation. For the past year and a bit, I've been to several mechanics with this same fault on my C4 Picasso and it's not been resolved. Now, I have an idea!💡💡
Thank you, had this fault for some time when car was last serviced they said it randomly occurred but not engine problem, had new battery went dead after three days tried to charge it but kept getting error on charger so took new battery back got another lost charge again but does change up but now when lock car dash panel stays lit saying press brake to start it seems to have gone bloody mad
Hey I have c4 Picasso diesel I have this fault engine need repair it Effect power engine too weak and changed sound of the engine CN you advise please ?
Great easy to follow video, im having an issue with my citroen C4 1.6 diesel hatchabck 65 plate, when i turn the key to the on poistion the display shows the "electical circuit failure:have the vehicle rapired" warning, and beeps 3 times the service light also appears on the dash. The car starts and drives fine. I tried to check battery volts yesterday but volt meter was playing up, so i just disconnected the positive terminal, left it for a min or two and reconnected, warning went away and i reset the service light by holding the mileage counter down method. Then i starated the car, everything looked good. Turned it off and started it another two times, all fine. I then locked the car and went in for tea, came out about two hours later put keys in turned them to the set position before starting engine, warning came back as did the service light. So im not sure whats causing this? Ive got an OBDR reader and looked but it showed no faults? Any ideas? cheers
My citroen c4 thp with EGS gearbox is showing this "Status of the starting authorization coming from the engine ECU PROHIBITED" and this "Starting authorisation coming from the gearbox ECU: NO" preventing the car from starting. Can you suggest to me what is the problem. Thanks
... another option would be to charge the battery. Its likely this is a start stop car making short journeys and alternator has insufficient time to charge battery
Hi I’ve got a Citroen C4 Picasso 2014 when i start the car its not going to the gear and it is showing the gearbox faulty and I have to leave the car running for 30 minutes and then the car will work and I change the gearbox oil and it still doesn’t work what should I do ? Pls help
Very interesting and like you say listening to the engine cranking you’d say the battery was good 👍 like how the car is giving us a heads up I need a new battery.
Although it sounded like it cranked ok, I could hear a very slight difference when it had the jump pack connected. Just shows how important a good battery is these days. Least you saved the customer from future pain further down the line too!
Hi, i have 2016 c4 grand picasso that has started showing bat charging fault, belt is in place, i suspect its a alternator but maybe youll know if theres anythink else that can couse this on this car?
I have the same issue with my Peugeot 308 get the EML engine fault repair needed it then disappears and the service indicator light comes on drives absolutely fine the fault code I got from the garage says configuration fault took it to Peugeot and they spent half a day on it and didn’t have a clue
Why would you disable the stop/start system? There's an obvious issue with the battery so why not just replace the battery like we have done and be done with it? The battery will only cause further issues down the line regarding starting from cold etc.
Because this system try to save the life of battery and charge the battery only 80% from full because for start stop need low voltage on battery when car stay on traffic lights or junctions
@@patasevs your incorrect. The vehicle has a BMS sensor on the negative terminal which measures voltage and current and allows for maximum charge capacity of the battery therefore it will charge upto 100% The stop/start system does not operate with the SOC of the battery below 75%
@@Spooksaliens0192really is this true? I am getting this fault in my 2016 grand Picasso about 30 seconds into my journey but sometimes it turns red and tells me to stop. And once it juddered to a halt
Brilliant diagnostic by the mechanic. Really impressive.
Well done, thank you for a detailed explanation of a could have been detrimental engine fault, there are a lack of honest people especially mechanics.

Brilliant video. Very informative 👏
Awesome work Ryan 👌🙌
Nice work Ryan 👍 always worth doing a quick battery check when doing diag work, can cause alsorts of weird faults.
Good video. I’ve been there with this issue on a mini. I wasted an hour pissing about. Thanks for taking the time.👍

Effect power engine too weak and changed sound of the engine
CN you advise please ?
What could it be if there is a loss of power and acceleration?
My car is saying the same, but I have changed the battery but the fault warning is still saying, can you please help me

I’m having the same problem. Had the battery changed and still problems. Did you manage to sort yours out?

Good information here, cheers
Interesting thanks. Mine is doing the same thing at the moment.
would this work if i connected to another car battery and draw power from that?
Great info , often we go to deep 👍
I've got exactly this. Replaced the battery but the fault is still coming up! How do you clear it? No codes.
I have that same problem. I replaced a new battery and installed software on the vehicle, but it continues. Did you find a solution?
... another option would be to charge the battery. Its likely this is a start stop car making short journeys and alternator has insufficient time to charge battery
Is it ok to drive though ti get to a garage?

Yes, quite surprising how well the vehicle starts considering the large drop.

I checked the voltage while its running and off and while it runs it shows only 11 volts but of its 12.5
I had a new battery fitted 3 months ago and this is also my issue with the engine light please help!!!
i think you need to tell your car that ita new battery.
Great Ryan, thanks for diagnose a interesting fault on a Citreon, I am got same problem, please are able to check my battery thanks
I had the same issue. Start stop wouldn’t work put car would start all the time. Had battery replaced and now I have the same issue as in the video
Fantastic
My car doing the same eco comes and the code shows up when off the code disappears
I want to buy, C4 grand space Tourer. 2018 petrol 1.2 pure tech. Does anyone knows how the engines are ? I have sone negative reviews.
Is that the maxisys 908p your using
Yes indeed
Nice one
Had that problem with my C4 Picasso, And a injection thing didnt work. 900 euros on repairs😱 700 euro labour 200 euro the problem
The same happened to mine. I hate this car now.
Crazy...
Hope my car is the same

just need fully disable start stop system with lexia becouse this system hold the battery not 100% charge
Why would you disable the stop/start system? There's an obvious issue with the battery so why not just replace the battery like we have done and be done with it? The battery will only cause further issues down the line regarding starting from cold etc.
