Video tutorial

In this video, we see how the youtuber identified the problem with his 2006 Citroen C3, hoping to help anyone who may have had a similar issue with the same car. If the Eco mode is activated on this model and the car doesn't start, we can access the fuse box located in the engine compartment, above the battery cover.

The problem was solved by examining the various fuses, and we specifically identified fuse number 5, which is for the fuel pump and may have burned out for some reason.

This causes the EcoMode light to come on, but simply changing this fuse will restore the car to its functionality.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
