This morning, I went to start the car and nothing happened except a clunk from somewhere on the passenger side front. All the warning lights and stereo display area were dead. Just the two warning lights (shift light and traction light) on the rev counter were lit :?
A quick check showed the battery was fine and it wasn't just a flat battery. The major fuses above the battery terminal were still fine.
I remembered someone previously mentioning fuses as a cause for non starting, so set about the glovebox fuse box, pulling and checking each one in turn ( a bit random, but the Renault fuse numbering is realy random or non existant). Theres a handy pair of tweezers on the back of the fuse cover for gripping the fuses
When pulling a 5 amp fuse in the middle of the fuse box, there was another clunk from somewhere, and the radio display came on when refitting the fuse (which wasn't blown)
The engine now started but the spanner warning, both airbag lights and the traction control light were all lit A mile drive, first checking the brakes were infact working and everything felt good, stopped the engine and restarted as normal
