farty, i will try to upload a better pic tmrw yes i checked all the fuses at the end of the dashboard and non were blown. i even put in a couple of 7.5a fuses in the blanks incase i misplaced a fuse when re fitting it but the problem only got solved when i replaced the above 15a fuse in engine so im just thinking if that is related to egr circuit too. lol yes its my own car, my parrot bluetooth kit was playing up so i removed the stereo and the heater console to check for loose wires , thats why one of those screws fell into the cigarette lighter 12v

Farty..thanks for reply in this pic i removed the blue 15A from the two fuses located at the top that are alone from the rest hence why i thought it was a spare. its below the green one according to my handbook its f17 assuming iv got version b which it says is for Horn. but looks like cigarette lighter was attached to it too my car is registered july 2012 cffb engine code if it is the egr..can they be cleaned or is it the usual dpf/egr delete job which ive been quoted £350 for. iv seen a replacement used egr on ebay which the seller lists are 76k miles and in good working order. for £25. I dont want to just leave it and it crops up again leaving me stranded I added some Forte diesel turbo/egr cleaner to fuel and took it for a run. so far its been ok

hi, sorry to jump on this thread, but i found it via a google search i have the exact same issue. 2012 skoda superb 2.0 tdi done 130k miles i blew a fuse in the engine bay few days ago 15a by dropping a screw into the cig lighter plug which shorted it (i was removing the stereo)....the car wouldnt start so i replaced a fuse in the engine bay, with what at the time I thought was a spare 15a but realised 2 days later when my 12v and horn wasnt working I parked car up to check all fuses to find the one for the horn...not realising i had pulled it out 2 days earlier to use lol. The two in the fuse box looked separate so i thought they were spares. anyway..went to start car and it wouldnt start just turning over. called rac out and they said it was the EGR. car started with easy start...kept revving it. but would cut out again. managed to get it home by keeping it revved. and then it cut out again. This morning...after reading this thread...i thought id put a couple fuses in empty spaces. One of them being...the one i took the 15A out of 2/3 days earlier. My horn started to work and car started without much effort. no warning lights and drives ok. not in limp Any ideas fellas...could the EGR fault have been related to the horn fuse or is it completely seperate and could the original poster tell me what the issue was please thanks in advance, look forward to response
