    I've just bought 206 diesel(2002),when I turn the ignition key to start the
    car all the lights come up except the diesel sign and I can't start the
    engine,
    any idea please.
    PS: I have changed the plugs.
    Cheers

    Sounds like the relay for the heater plugs has gone. I had the same problem
    with my 205 K reg Diesel Turbo, replaced relay from scrapyard at a cost of
    £10 and been fine since.

    What you can do to check that this is the problem is connect a jump lead
    from the battery + to any of the glow plugs, ensuring it touches the metal
    part. Watch out for sparks when you connect and re-connect, nothing serious
    just a little arcing sometimes. If the engine does start, then disconnect
    the lead to stop it running the plugs still.
    If it does start then means it's definitley the relay.
