Clio 1.2 51 Mk2 Ph2
hey i need some clio expert advice
I have spent 2 days trying to identify and solve my starting problem with my renault clio ph2 mk2 1.2 8v.
Basically i try to start the car up and it doesn't crank at all so my first test was the battery which seemed fine but i replaced it anyways with a brand new one under warranty, but this still hasn't solved the problem.
i placed a multi meter on the battery and tried to crank the car but still nothing and the battery still reads 12v doesn't drop voltage what so ever.
i the tested to see if i was getting a good earth on the starter which i was and tested to see if there was a constant 12v feed to the starter motor which there is.
my attention then went to the switched live on the starter which is controlled by the ignition which i was getting a 12v feed when i tried to crank the car still no joy.
my next presumption was that the starter was goosed so i went and replaced it with a brand new one........ still no joy!
after all this i was getting really really feed up so started doing some searched and seen that the crank sensor could be at fault so i took it out and cleaned it ( it wasn't even that dirty tbh) still nothing
i then noticed people saying there was loos connections on the "uch" at the passengers footwell so i had a wee look and checked they where all fine
sorry for the long spew of information but i thought i would give all the information that i could for someone out there to help me cause i am honestly stumped and cant figure this one out and really need my car back![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
ps when i try to start it all the lights are on and the battery and the stop light flicker i will post a video of this
