Renault Modus

[jpspeed]

Hi, Side lights on drivers side have stopped working on drivers side, checked bulbs, they worked but changed them anyway. Still nothing? Found fuse box in engine bay but cant find a diagram, could it be something in there or maybe the column stalk? Checked all fuses in glove box - all fine and checked electrical contacts and cleaned them

Earth connection between lights and car bodywork?

run a wire from a good earth point to the bulb casing see if you get a light.

It appears that the lighting fuses are in the engine bay fusebox. If it's only sidelights that are malfunctioning I'd suggest starting with the lowest rated fuses (5A) and working through methodically with a tester.

Are you sure the standard fuses are not inside somewhere?
Renaults have them everywhere .. My runabout for now (Megane Coupe) has one inside (interior services) One main one for main maxi fuses/relays in engine bay cubby box .. and another one with maxi fuses on other side of engine in plenum by battery.
Look for a symbol like a small torch buld .. and a R-facing arrow. That would be RH side lamps. LH carries instrument usually, so I take it yours are still on!

The Renault Forums site that Toureman linked to is worth bookmarking if you own a Renault. there's not much you can't find out there.

Hi albags,

It's hard to keep track of the threads and posts on the Renault Forum with over 100,000 members!

Thanks for the help, i will give it a try!

[jpspeed]

You might get a reply on the forum where you posted.
It should be pretty easy to trace .. that problem really.
Just work backwards through the loom layout and colours.

Easy for someone that knows what they are doing maybe!!!

OK if you have a problem with your modus people tend to think that you will have some understanding of cars ,
Most problems can be just googled like the forums or YouTube or a simple answer like where the fuses are will be in your user Manuel /handbook .

You need to know to use a. Multi meter to check continuity /ect if you want to work on one of these because they have lots of electrical problems !
