Why does my peugeot 205 diesel 1.8 GRDT not start sometimes?

I have the same model (205 grdt). I use one of those solar trickle chargers. Either a bigger one that runs to the back of the car or a smaller one that you can put on the dash board. No problems since. Also start the car WITHOUT the lights on first....
