A technical advice about BSI Citroen and Peugeot

Model: Citroen Citroen Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, we are given a technical advice regarding the BSI of Citroen. First of all, let's clarify what the BSI is: it is the box that contains the fuses inside the passenger compartment. This unit is responsible for communicating with all the onboard electronic units, such as ABS, air conditioning, engine management, and allows the operation of various devices according to the user's requests. The advice given by the youtuber is that, when faults occur intermittently - which is the worst situation because it is difficult to diagnose them - very often the problem is due to cold soldering on the BSI terminals: therefore it is important to check the integrity of the cold soldering on this component, which can cause very unpleasant damage.
