So I am really now thinking of sourcing the part myself and have another garage fit it as I'm not very handy.
This job is a fiddly faff but not difficult, no high torque fittings to overcome, no working under the car. From memory an 8mm, a 10 mm socket plus a torx fitting is all that's needed.
It is imperative that each connection is put in the same place on the new unit - and there is enough slack in the cable to do them one at a time - but otherwise it's is a pretty straightforward task to complete.

However if doing this replacement yourself, you do need to be thoroughly careful to ensure that you mark ALL the cable connections correctly to the exact locations
good advice, unless original connections were bad.
I've sourced a new BPGA module in the hope of fixing overactive economy mode/battery drain but this video has the two connectors to the module the other way around to mine...
Hallo Marc,ich besitze einen Peugeot 308 SW T9
MK II ,1,2 Allure 3 Zylinder,bei dem das BPGA defekt ist!
Laut Peugeot muss ein neues Modul angelernt beziehungsweise neu programmiert werden.
Ich habe nun hier im Tread gelesen das es bei manchen Modellen nicht notwendig ist!
Mein Fahrzeug hat die FIN:VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]
Erstzulassung 05/2016
Kannst Du mir sagen ob bei diesem Auto Plug and Play funktioniert?

Hello Marc, I own a Peugeot 308 SW T9
MK II, 1.2 Allure 3 cylinder, which has a faulty BPGA!
According to Peugeot, a new module needs to be programmed or reprogrammed.
I have now read here in the thread that this is not necessary for some models!

Can you tell me whether plug and play works with this car?

Hi, I ordered the part from eBay but it arrived with different serial number.
Mine is 9800223680
They delivered 9811475080
It should fit properly or I need to send it back and get exactly the one with same serial number ?
Hi there, my car has come up with the battery charge fault and the AA are pointing to the BPGA too, just wondered whether you could check my VIN and tell me if mine needs configuring or whether it is plug and play? Thanks very much!
Im new to the forum since Im having a hard time locating whats wrong with my wifes car, a Peugeot 308 SW II 1.2 THP 130, 131hk, 2015 and she is getting upset with me, since Im claiming I will fix it.....
Ive read all the posts in the thread, and it sounds like the BPGA is the fault with my Peugeot 308 as well.
When the car unlocks, the mirrors doesnt fold out all the time, and when this happens, the car is completely dead when pushing the "start" button. Sometimes it takes 30sec and sometimes it takes several minutes for the car to come alive. But then all of a sudden the car comes alive, mirrors comes out and it starts just fine. Ive also have a service light coming on occasionally saying that the foglight is faulty. This message goes away when you flip the light on and off manually. And the car also never goes into eco mode at a red light stop. Changed to a new battery some months ago, so that shouldnt be the error.
Any thoughts or suggestions regarding this matter? Is replacing the BPGA unit the way to move forward here?
Hi there Paul
I bought the battery brand new some months ago, and it only took a week or two and problem was back. So I havent had it tested, but I would still say it is in good condition. Any thoughts?
