Light on the dash....

[ColinG]

I've never seen this before, had the car out of the garage just for 10 mins in the driveway, it was sitting running.. Jump in and this light is on the dash..

After stopping and restarting it's gone, car seemed to be running fine?!?!

I believe it's something to do with the cats. Common if you have an aftermarket exhaust.

 

[ColinG]

Isn't that usually the engine shaped light though??

It's an electrical fault. Googled and it came up with multiple things, injectors, pedal sensors, battery connection, coil pack...

Did you say coil pack? Highly unlikely.... Lol!

Its Renault's cover all light. Even the symbol used is from a diesel!
Throttle body is a favourite on other lesser Clio's or bad connection on throttle potentiometer. Never anything easy IME. Lets hope it don't come on again.

Renault should branch out and fit one of those "cover all" lights to women, at least then men know, that there's a fault, when the light comes on, for any of the following:

You have no idea at all, what the argument / fault is about?

You attempted to plug in your diagnostic stick, to find you misread the fault code, and your not getting your leg over tonight.

The light comes on, your thinking the best, it's a new pair of shoes (coil) , but no your wrong again, holiday to Disney USA with kids (engine &. ECU.

If you put that light on a woman, it would always be on.

Weird, my starter went last week and that light came on.

Interesting replies, I went back out last night and left car idling, 10 mins later no light, running fine, went a very short drive and all was perfect... Bizarre!!

It's Cat D.

I believe it's something to do with the cats.

It looks like you've got a 'Tabby' but you should really have a 'Long Haired Persian'!!!
