They sell them at this place: www.ecutools.com but I don't think your
98 model is covered. You can get fault codes without the engine light
coming on.

You might want to try this: http://www.peugeotdiesel.com/ECU_Faults.html

My recommendation is to disconnect and clean the battery terminals.
Plus leaving the battery off for 5 mins plus will also reset the ECU.
Then start up and take the vehicle for a good run. Might be solved as
simply as that.
