peugeot 206 hdi 2.0 hdi 01 headlights stay on smart wipers do not work?

I have just replaced the sensor behind the rear view mirror which i hoped would solve the problem.When wipers are switched on they will only work intermittently,but,when ignition is switched on the sidelights come on and when started the headlights stay on,best of all disconnecting the sensor makes no difference - HELP!

Hi

The rain / light sensor needs to be set up to the cars BSI unit before it will work correctly.

Your car runs a CAN - VAN multiplexing system which is controlled by the BSI unit ( cars computer brain ) which in turn is software driven.

Take it to a Peugeot dealer with all the keys & blue security code card & get them to set the new rain / light sensor up & download the latest BSI / ECU software while there at it.

Where you 100% sure it was the rain / light sensor at fault in the first place?

It could have been an issue with the BSI unit, software of COM2000 unit.
