Where to Find the Legal VIN on a Peugeot 206

Model: Peugeot 206 MK 1 - Years 1998-2012
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, find out where to locate the legal Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on a Peugeot 206. The legal VIN is not the one found on the plate located on the driver's side of the windscreen. That plate is called the "courtesy plate" and is only used until the vehicle is registered for various movements. It is also not the metal plate found on the driver's door frame: that is the plate used by the factory when the vehicle leaves production. The legal VIN is actually stamped onto the chassis with punches, and for our vehicle, it is located on the rear door frame on the passenger side.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
