Dropping power

-

I’m hoping you can answer a question about a 2011 Peugeot 207 HDI diesel. It keeps dropping power, then the management light comes on and goes out after a while. The code reading says ‘P2562, Turbocharg­er boost control position sensor A circuit’. The local Peugeot parts department says it doesn’t know what this is as it’s not listed, but suggests the air intake temperatur­e sensor or flow meter (MAF) could be at fault. However, they gave me a parts diagram and list that includes an air pressure sensor LG 103, part number 1920LH. Is that what the code reader means? Paul Brook I would have expected a different code from either the MAF or air intake temperatur­e sensor. The part number 1920LH is the air pressure sensor for the inlet manifold – this may be causing the problem you have and would activate the code. However, before replacing this, I would first check the connection­s and the circuit between the terminals and the ECU.

You do not mention which code reader you were using to read off the code, but if it was a reader using only the EOBD system you may find that using a Peugeot-dedicated reader may get a more specific code.
