306 hdi just stopped working

Hi all
hope someone can help
i have owned a 2001 306 hdi estate for 2 years and its never skipped a
beat but went out last night in it
fuel light come on so went to petrol station, approx 10 miles away
got out put diesel in, checked in garage definetely diesel
put £25 in, went to start it and nothing, didnt even fire. tried to
turn over
anyone had same problem and how do i find out
today i have checked all fuses, i have not dropped key and tried spare
key
also had pipes off at filter and nothing coming through
i had timing belt, service, water pump done about six months ago
thanks

 

If you have no fuel coming through from the filter, then it is probably the
fuel lift pump in the tank. Can you hear it whirring when you turn the
ignition on?
Could be the pump itself has failed, or a relay supplying it with power.

 

See my reply to your other post. When you switch on you should be able to
hear the pump in the tank running although it is quite quiet. Another
possibility, although I have only experienced it with a petrol car, is that
by getting low on fuel you sucked up muck from the tank bottom that caused a
blockage.

 

no nothing, it was fine then 5 mins later nothing, not even trying,
checked all fuses but not going near relay, my friend said could be
relay as pumps rarely just shut down or a blockage as it was run down.
cheers and you know much about air locks and whether they have a
manual primer, cheers bria

 

had car in to have intank pump replaced, ran a dream for ten miles,
then shut down.
mechanic took car into peugeot for diagnostic (90 plus vat) for them
to tell me its an ecu fault or a wiring problem
they want £700 to replace ecu and it may not be that, then a further
£4/500 to check wiring and then they cant guarantee it will run right.
Please help at my wits end, found some 2nd hand ecu’s for £50ish but
how do i get them programmed, manchester area and any idea how much
thanks for your help and time
