    Xenon head light

    If its flickering i'd imagine it could be dampness getting into ballast, unless you have sealed it yourself? but if its flicking and bulb is getting bluer then its mre likely bulb is gna die imo

    Xenon head light

    Firstly plug passenger side lamp into driverside - this will indicate if its a fuse or not, if it works then... Try swapping ignitors n bulbs on the driver/passengerside, if that doesn't work... Try swapping the balasts...if that doesn't work... Buy a new headlamp

    sub wiring kit? anyone recommend a decent cheap one?

    RCA cables in vibe kits aren't that great, had a couple of these returned to the store as the terminals 'pop' off if pulled, and although a coaxial cable these never work well if fixed - for an extra £10 best go for the autoleads kit...

    Spray painting question (rattle cans)

    Lol re-read and does sound weird, solid colours are harder paints than metallics/pearls and do not require lacquering

    Stone chips near rear wheel.

    yeah, both sides of mines looks like they have been blasted by a shotgun, iirc i read somewhere about renault paint being quite soft, not worth a respray imo - not as noticable after a machine polish

    Spray painting question (rattle cans)

    Is the red solid or metallic? if solid then it won't need lacuqered as the paint is hard enough - thought Id check since the only 'red' i have seen for a clio is a solid

    headlight levelling??

    Ive not been flashed, but think my left xenon is slightly higher than right - so without starting another thread I thought i'd note it here to, possibly a similar cause, but above my knowledge to diagnose it

    I work in halfords myself and depending on how busy we are me a some collegues have been happy to assist customers to help diagnose some faults - but s'posse any help you get depends on the store and in particular the knowlegde of the audio fitters in that store. As for testing it, check the...

    I'd try swapping fuses just to double check - mines looked fine when i took it out, but when replaced with spare the dipped came on

    Xenon problem

    was where the ballast plugged into underside of headlight - seeminly the rubber isnt sufficient enough to resist water penetration, have u checked fuses? xenons are fused indepently - 15A fuse, 3 along top and second top row of fuse box iirc - would consult manual just incase though

    clio cigar lighter fault.

    u can just hold the multimeter on the inside of the cig socket, if this gives no readings then disconnect it at the back and test the individual wires, should be 12V & 0V

    headlight gone, not ballast, not bulb, not ignitor box. help?

    Fuse, each dipped xenon is individually fused - 15A iirc

    Does the standard head units have phone mute?

    Should do, but you will require a T-harness for fitting a kit (ie. parrot kits)

    Xenon problem

    this happened to mine, i originally thought it was bulbs so bought new ones, but when i fitted them and it still didnt work i discovered it was the ballast, the water in the connector confimed my thoughts - since then i have replaced it and been advised frm my local renault specialist to...

    Headunit keeps forgetting settings!

    +1 my thoughts too, noticed the yellow label on the wire and once zoomed in notes to be fitted directly to battery, there will also be a neg from the hu which will require earthing to the car (prob best not running it to the cig lighter tho, best finding a bolt on body work)
