Question about the 16VT console #1551007 29/09/2015 19:11 29/09/2015 19:11

Yann Unregistered Y	Hello, I have a question about two buttons on the 16VT console. The aircon and the air recirculation ones. Should the light illuminates whenever the buttons are pressed ? Even if the aircon doesn't work ? Or only when the headlights are on ? They don't light up when I press them... Thanks !

Both buttons have a green light which comes on when pressed with the ignition on. 16VT and X1/9 1500 + e208 Peugeot We must all do our part for the planet. I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using. I even unplugged my own.

Both buttons illuminate when switched on but it is also necessary to have the fan switched on to activate the aircon. The headlights make no difference Hope this helps

Yann Unregistered Y	Thanks for the information guys. Must have a connection problem somewhere, and/or broken lights.
