Right firstly I need to understand the problem so lets start at the beginning for beginners. When you put the key in the ignition and turn it to position II (all power lights on), what is the "state" of the red immobiliser LED:
Flashing @ 1hz
Flashing @ 4hz
Solid (then OFF after 3-5seconds)...
LoLz - it's a myth mate it needs diagnostics to see what's wrong first.
It's very rare the SERV light comes on alone though about sounds like someone has tampered with it to hide something.

The radiators aren't massively pricey no, I believe about £64 for a non-genuine Nissens unit but the pipes I'd try and find second hand as try will cost a fair bit more new from Renault.
Look for vehicles being broken or give Josh/Kat a call at Renparts

Not entirely true... Different vehicles have different specs. Some have xenons, some have rain/light sensors and the UCH's are configured to each individual car. If you put a UCH to a car that it's expecting say a rain sensor on and it doesn't have one then boom, there's a configuration...
A bit yes... Now you've got to diagnose the electrical circuit to the pump as its either the controlling side or the supply side that's at fault.
Starting at the pump end work backwards and inspect the wiring loom for damaged wiring (trapped, crushed, exposed/shorts) and be sure to check all...
More likely to be corrosion at the terminals tbh but there's no harm in swapping the clicky bits to. Jut make sure there's no nasty nasty green stuff when you pull the old relays out.
Deffo a wiring related fault there with the H02... Low voltage and heater function will be caused by the same thing, no power and as you've found out simply changing the sensor will be of no use.
I'd wager all your faults are down to a faulty loom or poor earth hiding somewhere.
He's always in work... I hear his recent track car build did bloody well yesterday at Donnington to.
Dan will equally be able to sort you out so I guess it boils down to location, location, location
Personally I'd say you need Fred to hook you up. I'm not a tuner but I believe he does the GT cams fitted with new belts for £900 then you just need the remap.
That's where I'm at with my thinking now Gaz because the scope traces show no faults what so ever and I just cannot replicate the fault.
The only fault logged was the knock sensor but that wouldn't cause a stall and failure to restart condition. I also suspect it's got the wrong plugs fitted so...
Yeah they're right but it's actually for the LHD Cup vehicles which really suffered with rubbing issues in the drivers inner arch liner area. I've fitted a few myself for this very reason... I believe the short loom is around £27 now and It's much quicker to run 5 new wires than it is to strip...
