Renault Clio 1.2,Jaguar
Hi,
I'm having problems with my Clio, it is mainly OK to start but about on average once a week it wont start, by that I mean ignition lights etc OK but no starter motor action at all. I've had the crank case sensor replaced about a week ago as it had the problem of turning the engine but the cutting out before firing. It is now getting a pain in the **se. I,ve put a wire under the bonnet so that in an emergency I can hot wire the solenoid but this is not satisfactory as my wife refuses to use it. I'm quite handy but I don't know where to look for the problem. I assume it's either the wiring to the ignition switch, the Ignition switch itself, a relay (if there is one), or just a wiring fault.
Is there anyone who can either help with the diagnosis or perhaps tell me where the wiring comes from to the ignition switch then where it goes from there to the solenoid.
Hope someone on the Forum can help,
Regards,
Dave
