Hi dominic I would like to help you out. Please have a look at this thread, maybe its what you looking for http://citroenc3owners.com/diesel-citroen-c3/changing-the-diesel-fuel-filter-t102.html

The petrol pump is in the fuel tank and to gain access you lift the back seat and then the metal cover which has four screws holding it down ,the big plastic ring is unscrewed to remove the sender unit which contains the fuel pump

either remove it and repair it or fit a new one ,in the bottom of the socket on the back is a thin link connection and they melt for fun so either solder it across with something or renew it ,air pumps are renoun for burning this link out

motor possible short /dead spot or over heated

I am totally wrong here no doubt but this fault sounds like a bad connection on a multiplug harness somewhere under the bonnet in the engine compartment

I had the same problem.when I used my main key my car wouldn't start and I got the message "anti theft faulty". The key and the remote still unlocks and locks the doors and turns the lights on/off but it just wouldn't start my car. I was able to start my C3 by using the spare key. The main key is still faulty and if used brings up the same message.

key worn or switch worn

The most likely location for it is up under the front, left wing between the front wheel and the bumper. You might need to take the wheel arch liner out to get to it. If it's not there check the wheel arch on the other side. Another common location is behind the front bumper mounted on the bodywork crossbar between the radiator and the front grille.

These locks don't work like traditional mechanical locks. It's just spinning as the lock and key are designed to do it if a wrong key is used. Original keys can become too worn to engage the mechanism inside it making it spin the same way. Try these basics. Do you have a spare key you could try? Is there a key slot in the passenger side door you could try? Could you get to the driver's seat through the side or rear doors? Have you tried spraying a fine oil into the lock to lubricate it. *NOTE* Do NOT use WD40 as it is not an oil. I would suggest something like GT85 or 3in1 spray.

I have posted an instructional video on how to locate the diagnostic ports and reset your error code. Please note: fault code F40A is recorded when the oil level has not been measured, or when the temperature of the engine coolant is higher than the set threshold. Please be sure to check your fluid levels as low oil or coolant could result in the engine over-heating and burning important gaskets resulting in irreparable damage.

Disconnect your battery! Remove the old wite from the battery supply end to the far end. Replace it in the reverse order connecting the battery supply end last. Reconnect your battery.

It's due to discharged battery. Charge it using external charger or use jumpstart cables.
