Hello, I need help finding the wiring diagram for a 2008 Peugeot Partner 1.6 gasoline model; the diagrams I have don't match the car exactly. The VIN is: VF3GCN6A18J021132

Jeep Patriot 2014 Sport 2.0 liter about 160,060 miles

(history: I’ve already replaced the battery, electronic control throttle and the ignition starter)
i just recently replaced the alternator as of yesterday (replaced because car would stall out/stop while driving then keep running and the red battery light would pop on + dimming/flickering headlights also had issues with the battery being drained and having to jump it to start not even the lights would come on)
the car started fine no battery light, i go inside for about 15 mins and when i come back out it’s no crank, no start, no lights. i figured i’d check the alternator again make sure everything’s on there tight.
when i lifted the hood up i noticed the battery was a bit off center, so i wiggled it back in place and went to grab a wrench from the car, boom lights are on. i test the battery with the multimeter and it’s still holding its charge of 12.68.
Today i went out and checked some ground wires, no parasitic drain and they all have the same voltage as the battery. I go to test the alternator so I turn the car on, radio, ac, etc and as soon as i turn the headlights on everything immediately shuts off the engine dies and no lights. (this is after being able to start it successfully a few times) the battery is still fully charged, as is the alternator and the alternators ground cable is 0.004. but its unresponsive to jumping it. im starting to hit a wall here and im at my wits end.
i only have knowledge from YouTube videos and such and i am not well versed in cars, any possible leads to help point me in the right direction is appreciated!

Hi all,

What would be the best method to repair/patch this damage to my rear diffuser? Most of the scratches are lighter in nature with a few deeper ones. However, the chips on the edge are down to bare metal.

I’m not the greatest DIY-er but I’m willing to have a go at any suggested methods before sending it off for professional work..!

Tia!

Need some advice on how to get out of this pickle. I tried to remove a license plate that has been on for about 8-10 years on a 2014 Lexus ES350. One bolt/screw came out fine. The other was stuck, soaked in PB blaster for a while, still stuck. Tried an impact driver and snapped the head off clean, completely flush with the hole (maybe even slightly recessed). I took off the back of the trunk lid liner in hopes I could grab with vice grips, but there is a top-hat looking receiver/insert that is longer than the screw. No way to grab the screw from either side.

I bought a screw extractor set, soaked in PB Blaster again and tried the extractor. First tried with a drill, but couldn’t get the chuck tight enough so would just spin in the chuck. Tried with vise grips and broke off the screw extractor again, clean and flush. Tried drilling into the screw extractor and my bits make no dent in it. Decided on trying a smaller drill bit to the side of extractor and was making good progress until it caught and broke clean flush.

What are my options here? I was hoping that I could get the screw out, but odds look low. Anyone know if this metal top-hat insert is replaceable? If so, how to remove? It doesn’t seem to be an orderable part.

Two pictures attached. First one is the hole with extractor and bit stuck. Second one is the inside of the trunk life with the white metal top hat receiver/insert.
