Citroen SEDRE can not be activated

Post by lancia58 »

Hi

I installed Citroen SEDRE ( 2014 ) and DocBackup. The DocBackup runs OK , but the SEDRE does not. Both are activated by internet explorer on Windows 10 that is 32 bit. When I run the SEDRE the small icon on the left of the task bar blinks for several seconds ( as it should ) and than the internet explorer is activate asking a permission to close the current internet tab ( as it should ) , but after clicking the yes ( permission to close the current internet tab ) nothing happens . Activating Windows 10 task manger sows that the SEDRE process is alive but does nothing ( the CPU % and Memory % for that task is 0 ). I did another try and when the internet explore is activated and asking the permission to close the current internet tab I copied the URL ( from the internet explorer ) to Google Chrome. With this I got the entry internet window to SEDRE but when trying to view anything I got an error or a blank internet page. In both Chrome and Internet explorer I disabled "Pop up blocking" but it didn't help.

Has anyone experienced this problem ? Any advise of how to sort this ?

Thanks Zohar

You need to enable compatibility mode for the "site" (localhost or 127.0.0.1) in Internet Explorer as it is not compatible with modern versions of IE without compatibility mode.

Hi Simon

Thanks , enabling the compatibility mode and installing the SVG Viewer sort the problem.
The only problem I got is when trying to explore the

1) "Diagnostic connector" I got the message "The file d3bzc0v1_0.sgm is not available: "
2) "General location of earths I got a blank window
3) "Passenger compartment relay location" I got the error "The file d3bzbxp0.sgm is not available:"
4) "Relay location under the bonnet " I got "The file d3bzbwp0.sgm is not available: "

I guess the above is a bug in the SEDRE and these files were not installed.

I was exploring part of the diagrams but in order to use them I need the legend of the device in the diagram. Do you know where can I find the legend in SEDRE ?


Thanks a lot for your help

There are a lot of diagrams missing on the early Xantias unfortunately.

Its an MKII make year 2000 , so I guess it is not an early Xantia. BTW MK 1 is not supported at all. I tried the tools but it provides information such as where to find the RPO number the VIN" number wiring color codes

Thanks

If you are having issues - have a look at the guide I put together on various codes here on the Forum Wiki:
https://www.frenchcarforum.co.uk/wiki/E ... ring_Codes

The codes are listed alphabetically.
