Thank you very much for sharing this info! Helped me out a lot! For people who have problems finding the plastic replacement part: Take a good look at the other side. The handle for your screen whipers has the exact same part. You could swap them. Screen whipers dont have the problem when turning the steering wheel! Cheap fix, works great!
Thank you very much sir , today i fixed my peugeot 206 indicator (Dav Comm 2000) after watching your DIY video. It was a little tricky to remove the Indicator Switch from comm body but i did it with patience. Now it is like a new!!!! SO MANY THANKS!!!!!
Brilliant tutorial. Including taking off the steering wheel, and re attaching it, took around an hour. It's amazing what Peugeot would charge you for that, when I bought the plunger and spring off E.Bay for £1.99.
What a STAR, you are. Patience 'to burn'! Thank you for inspiring me to open and repair my faulty lights contacts in the unit. Fingers crossed. WOW!! Qld, Australia
Just done this job on a 307 with the assistance of this vid. Easy to miss that when removing the actual switch stalk, that the pathetic wiring for it must be freed from it's two little guide hooks,, to avoid straining it when the stalk suddenly comes out of the main assembly. Good video, thanks. Alternative methodology for repetitious Peugeot/Citroen problems of this type involves paraffin and matches..
i did this and the cable has just pulled right out of the indicator stalk...anyone know how to open the stalk itself so i can plug the cable back in please?
@@bibana06 It was the final straw for me, the car had other issues too so i scraped it. I did think of cutting the stalk down it's length and then glueing it togther again. It's a bad design imho.
@@ncmarkham Honestly, I was in a total state of rage After that and about to do the same. But I may finally have reconnected the wire using an endoscopic camera and a mikado (a small piece of wood lol). To do this job, I had to dissemble the end of the switch whith the connectors that look like small fingers then re assemble it. I will test it and let people know if it worked.
Thanks for the video. Note when clipping the case back together wedge the "copper" spring contacts back (eg with Lego blocks) so the two pins on the other (circuit board) side don't go behind the spring contacts.
Great video, gives me confidence to tackle my Comm 2000 on my 406 Coupe but problem with windscreen washer not working after checking pump and fuse I think due to switch problem
Sorry I missed the last part of your comment or I would have replied sooner. In my experience the only place I have found a problem with the washer is at the pump itself, the connector to the pump or the wiring to the pump. I would disconnect the pump and see if there is 12v at the connectors then put 12v across the terminals to see if the pump runs. Share your experience and let everyone know how you get on. Good luck.
iv got the same problem on my 307 (floppy). a new comms unit is the best part of £200 nfw. just found the part you replace on ebay by chance so im going to give it a go, fingers cross that it will work. thanks for the vid.
Thanks so much for this. Sorted the problems with indicators on my 206. A few bits of it are quite fiddly, I think I struggled with the same bits as you!
Thanks, I've spent hours on the problem. When the pump stopped working 6 months ago I checked the fuse which was OK so immediately jumped to the conclusion it was the pump so bought a new one without checking it and the old pump turned out to be OK. I checked the supply voltage at the pump terminals with somebody holding the stalk and it showed 4V but since then it shows zero voltage. The wiring is very difficult to work out since I goes into a very thick harness. I read up on forums that it could be a bad connection in the Comm 2000 but have doubts since when you pull the stalk the wipers sweep 4 or 5 times as they should so presume the contact is being made unless there are 2 separate contacts which was why I planned to open the unit and check. I'll certainly update what I discover but it won't be until next month since I'm working away at the moment.
I would be inclined to check the wiring connectivity first. There are too many variations in the wiring diagrams. If you let me know the build code (the number on the drivers door pillar). Some have a relay in the engine compartment fuse box and some use the BSI under the main fuse box. You need to know what one you have
Great video but note that on reassembly of the switchgear the terminals for the airbag will go to the wrong side of the little short circuit tabs unless they are pushed over as the cover goes on. Probably easier to take them out and replace them. if nothing is done the connectors will not go in properly and certainly won't connect!
any idea why the boss in the centre of the comms unit locks when you turn it fully round please. mine has done this and i cannot release it to put it back on the car.
There is no need to change it is enough to remove the bow stretch well and then not put into place so that plastic hard way. When you put it out and then let him put his arm signaling.
thanks bunnybr, I will have a go at this myself now you have shown me how. I have to admire how you manage not to swear at the fiddly tabs (or did you edit out the cusses?☺)
Hi very good video👍 I have Renault trafic and the controls look exactly the same. My indicators are working absolutely fine it's my high beam won't stay on I've checked all fuses and relays and this is my next step this video, does full beam also use this little plastic part or is that just for the indicators?
I think I might need to use this guide. My left indicator isn't working. Some times it works and some times it doesn't. The hazards work fine though. I'm guessing there isn't a connection on the stalk switch?
We did this same process for my COM2000, Peugeot 307 2002 year model. Everyrhing works fine with the indicators/wipers. However after putting everything back together, the car refuses to start. Starter motor activates normally but it wont start. We read diagnostics with OBD and PP2000 and it doesnt give any error codes. How ever at the COM2000 tab it shows "Key status: Missing" even when the key is inside the ignition. Do you have any ideas whats causing this issue?
Great video, but the damn wire plug fell out of the indicator stalk and I have no idea how the hell I'm supposed to get that back in, it's completely invisible and the stalk assembly will not come apart without causing major damage. Stupid, stupid design, made to fail and £7.99 for 1 tiny plastic part really is shafting people!
@@ncmarkham I had the same problem today. How did you guys fix it? is it possible to only buy a stalk? If I search on internet it looks like i need to buy the complete unit. I was so close and then i noticed the wire was out of the stalk.... probably you guys had the same feeling :P
@@bartsteenman7618 My car wasn't starting too well in the mornings and this was the final straw so i scrapped it. The cheapest way is to cut the stalk open with a Dremmel (rotary tool), put the plug back in and then glue it back together. I tried to buy another stalk from a local scrapyard but it was slightly different and wouldn't work.
Hi, I have a 206 1.4HDI Peugeot built 2005. Whenever turn the ignition switch on, it will start the low beam lights also, regardless that the switch for the lights is OFF. And same time I can not signal left/right. All this will come to normal if the lights switch in on the Parking position(can use direction indicator signal lights, low and high beam lights). Yes I can drive like that, BUT, already renewed 2 batteries because of forgetting to switch off lights before leaving the car :) . Have no problem with the wobbly direction indicator lights handle. Can you help ? Looking forward to your reply, Thanks
Hi! Thank you for the video! I also did it the same way and become good. A small plastic was bought on eBay, perfect. Again, thanks, greetings from Hungary!

Hi if u could answer a question for me please.My 307 has this problem of floppy stalk but also I only have low beam lights won't switch to high beam ,the lights on dash change from green to blue as if they are switching but don't. will this repair fix this also?
Hello,It's really helpful your video and clear. I have the same pb as your, could you give me the name or the link where I can buy the plastic tip?Thanks againBrs
My Citroen Xsara Picasso has the problem where the the indicator works for one or two flashes and then stops and the headlights turn on. This does not happen when the headlights are on already. Do you think this is caused by the same part failure, or is it a different problem? Thanks in advance.
Can you help me. I accidentally rotated the clock spring thing and now when I turn my steering wheel there is some rubbing noises like two plastic parts rubbing in each other. I'm not exactly sure if that is the reason for this noise, but I also almost opened the clock spring, before finding this video, because I wasn't sure how to open the dav comm. Great tutorial anyway! Thanks!
I dont think rotating the clock spring would cause any issues. You can rotate it to the end of its play and back the other way. If memory serves me it is 9 full revolutions end to end. The important thing is it is returned to the middle 4.5 revolutions, assuming the steering started off straight. Does the comm unit make the noise off the car or is it only when on the car. Wire routing. Horn contacts. seem the most likely candidates. Unless there are any broken plastic bits when taking it off or back on.
@@bunnybr Hi! I fixed it but now there is another problem. I lost my horn. I had to manually wind up the clock spring cable and now my horn does not work. Please if you have any idea what is wrong, tell me.
Thank you, very explanatory!! My problem (Peugeot 307 -08) is only that the turn signal does not make that clicking sound. Otherwise it flashes well. Maybe the switch tgear can be fixed. Where does the turn signal click come from inside this switch gear?
@@jack5611 Hi! No i never got it fixed. Too complicated to try do this on my own (this guy was very competent). I found a repairfirm in Sweden that maybe could do it. The cost would be 7000 SEK (=610 Euro). Given the the age and value of the car I found it unnecessary. I played along and ignored the silent turnsignal (which is not an issue in the yearly car inspection over here). Good Luck!
Had the same issue, fixed the stalk beautifully wit,h the tip here and a £1.79 part from China, but unfortunately after refitting I now have the airbag light illuminated! 😡
Check the connectors as I recall they can be connected but not live. You can test it by bridging the connector with a 3.3ohm resistor. If ABS light goes out that is the circuit.
I've got a problem with my comms on my 06 Picasso where I turn the lights to sidelights then after 3 second delay both sidelights and dipped beam on on . will this fix it
Instructions not clear and you failed to mention some key parts, witch made me fail and break the part. The metal "legs" , the tiny ones on the end of stalk, if you bend them just for a little, it's done, you will need a new one as you wont be able to bend it back like it was. The plastic that holds the stalk, if you force it too much, it will not hold the stalk again , it will fall . It doesn't explain the signal canceling , how not to screw that part . Lots of information missing .
Здравтвуйте, объясните мне еще вот такой момент. Никогда я раньше неразберал подрулевой перекючатель (стрекозу). Всегда считал что в стрекозе стоят проста микрики(переключатели, выключатели) каторые при воздействии на них дают команду БСИ, а БСИ приняв сигнал с стрекозы начинает управлять всем остальным. Дак вот, не совсем понимаю зачем в стрекозе целая схема состоящая из множества компонентов и микросхем?
For example: on AliExpress www.aliexpress.com/item/32994500333.html?spm=a2g0s.8937460.0.0.3b722e0eIBLhKf or you can try on Ebay with this french words "Peugeot Citroen Dav Com 2000 Commodo Souple Contact Clignotant Réparation" www.ebay.fr/itm/Kit-reparation-Com2000-Berlingo-Xsara-Picasso-206-307-406-Partner-commodo-phares/193171331604?hash=item2cf9e89a14:g:0y4AAOSwEDFdryCL
Hi, I gave stage problem on a 206, when car is started the headlights turn on without me switching them, however if I indicate the lights turn off. would this point to a faulty comms unit?
The symptoms seem very similar to my own. It should be easy to verify that it is the slack stalk that is causing the issue. Auto headlights come on when the car starts.
i did this and the cable has just pulled right out of the indicator stalk...@bunnybr or anyone know how to open the stalk itself so i can plug the cable back in please?

Have look at my other video "Steering wheel airbag removal to fix air bag light on a peugeot 406." This should give you all the information you need. Avoir oeil à mon autre vidéo "retrait de l'airbag du volant pour fixer coussin gonflable sur une Peugeot 406." Cela devrait vous donner toutes les informations dont vous avez besoin.
Hice una búsqueda en eBay de Peugeot DAV Comm 2000 Floppy Indicator Stalk Switch Repair Plunger COMM2000. Encontré algunos disponibles en China, pero estos pueden tardar mucho en llegar. Son baratos.
I have replaced the bit of plastic. however I have notice upon reinstalling into the car the indicators work but not clicking/ticking noise when indicator is on and also the airbag light is showing on the dashboard saying there is a fault :( any ideas :). thank :)
+Jeremi Roivas I reused the old spring as the plunger does not come with the spring. I hope you haven't lost yours. No idea where you would get a spring.
Hello. I have a similar problem in my com2000 Peugeot 206 oh the same model as it's shown in the video. Could you help me showing how to open de left harm of the terring column switch, the one that turns on the ligths? I want to change de data cable instead of changing the all harm. Thank you. Best regards, Carlos, from Portugal
I only have a right hand drive car.I do not think they will be different. is your indicator on the left hand side of the steering column. If it is, it will be the same part.
