Be careful with Yoz2a - i used to drive an automatic car and was curious about learning to drive a manual - Yoz2a said he would show me so i went on a test drive with him and he disguised his c0ck as a manual gear shifter and sat in the centre console

Its your UCH BIC - independant ECU / fuse board, situated under the dash on the passengers side of the car. Its directly above the bonnet release handle. Pull it out of its bracket and undo all the terminals and reconnect them. Retry your electrical ancileries - that should cure the fault. If...

The numbers have to be precise - renaultspecs1@btconnect.com
Theres a little clip holding it in - just give it a really good tug and it will pop out ( oo er )
Once you have it out unplug all connectors and disconnect your battery - reconnect it after 30 minutes - it should cure the problem. If not a new UCH will be required

The throttle body is a very common fault for malfunctioning ( FBW type ) change it under warranty and you shouldnt have any more problems. Also try disconnecting the battery and letting all the power drain out of the electrical system and then reconnect it - i had the same problem on my 172 and...
