Where's my BPGA?

Unread post by Paul-R »

Here's a question that I should know the answer to - but I don't. Hence why I'm asking.

Every query I put into a search engine comes up with this kind of picture showing the BPGA that's fitted to the Mk2 Peugeot 308.

But I don't have one of those in front of the battery. There's just an empty space there. Now it does make swapping the battery over a bit easier but I would like to know what's going on. I suspect that it's something to do with the fact that the 308 is an Active trim specification. According to the handbook this has an Eco fusebox. I think that it's Allure specification (and higher) that have the full fuseboxes fitted and that have this type of BPGA.

So, is my theory correct? And, more importantly, what do I have and where is it?

308 VIN VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] if needed (and if you can read it).

As you can see there's no BPGA there.

There is a small fusebox in roughly the same position but that only has three maxi-fuses inside.

I think they deleted it from later cars - or used a different design. Our 2017 C4 doesn't have one - just the fuse box as you have.

It's not a very late car, 2015.

What trim level is your C4?

Thanks, I didn't think so.

Ours is 'feel' trim - the mid spec at this age.
