    Cat-N 197, is anyone interested/can give advice

    My Clio 197 has just been Cat-N'd, and I am unsure how to proceed with the insurance company. I know that people may be interested in it for breaking/parts but I can't seem to find a listing of one that is like this to get a price for it, is anyone interested and got an idea of a price they may...

    Multiple electrics not working, possibly same cause but struggling to find it.

    Still trying to find time (and the tools) to get in there to have a look, moving house and looking for work is taking most of my time at the moment. I'll let you know when I've had a look and what I find in there.

    Multiple electrics not working, possibly same cause but struggling to find it.

    The dealership is the last option as I am not a millionaire, I only mention it as it has been happening for quite a while now and I am unsure where to go next, I am going to continue to investigate and hopefully, I/we can resolve this without me having to fork out a fortune for a dealership to...

    Multiple electrics not working, possibly same cause but struggling to find it.

    Cheers for all the advice, it sounds like if I touch the alarm it will start going off every ten minutes which I don't want to happen, I haven't the money at the moment to take it to a dealership to fix it if anything happens so I am going to put up with it at the moment while continuing to...

    Multiple electrics not working, possibly same cause but struggling to find it.

    The battery has been suggested to me before, so I tried charging the old one for ages with no change, so I brought a brand new one and still no change (the battery I got was this one Exide Premium 075 Car Battery (61Ah) - 5 Year Guarantee). Yesterday I reseated the multiplug to see if there was...

    Radio and display dead!

    Did you get any further with this issue? I currently have a 197 where the radio works but the display panel and the stalk controls don't. I was wondering if they could be related.

    Multiple electrics not working, possibly same cause but struggling to find it.

    Found it and it looks pretty good to me, no sign or corrosion or snapped wires, pictures attached, I have taken it apart and reseated it to see if it makes any difference to the alarm and the fuel gauge as I found a circuit diagram that shows it has the fule gauge signals and the engine...

    Multiple electrics not working, possibly same cause but struggling to find it.

    Hi, I have multiple electric issues with my Clio 197 that I have a feeling could be related but I'm struggling to find it. They are, alarm goes off all the time when locked, it does four beeps when opened so I think it's some thing to do with the ignition, as the manual says four beeps (or...

    Car turns over but won't start

    I'll check tomorrow, it's a small buzz I think isn't it. It did go a while ago and I had to have a new one in so I hope it's not that again

    Car turns over but won't start

    Apologies if this is a repeat question, I have looked but can't find anything specifiec to my problem. I have been having trouble with the battery, so I placed a new one in the car. The car now turns over but will never fire or start. I think this could be related to a immobiliser issued due to...

    Radio beeping, not asking for code

    Thanks, that is possible as I couldn't see the screen for a while and I was messing around with the wheel on the steering wheel to see if I could get it to display to the screen somehow. I will leave it on for a while with the sound down to see if that works.

    Radio beeping, not asking for code

    Thanks for taking the time to reply. I have the code and I have previously entered it. It is just this time it is beeping every five seconds but not asking for the code. I will try to take a video and upload it somewhere so you can see what is happening. Do you know if there is a way to force...

    Radio beeping, not asking for code

    Good shout, I will go and get one in a bit and post it. If it helps it's a Cabasse Auditorium, 6 CD changer in the dash and the amp under the seat type, I think it's standard for the Clio 197's.

    Radio beeping, not asking for code

    For a long time, the screen on the dash was not displaying the radio information after I had to disconnect the battery. This morning I have turned the car on and it is working again but the radio is beeping every five seconds. I have heard this can be because the radio needs the code entering...

    Electrical problems!

    Amazing thanks, I will have a look over the weekend when I get some time. I have replaced the key fob batteries, one of mine works okay the other seems to have a weak signal so I am going to look into that as well. I cleaned the scuttle panel out the other week and it had made it better for a...

    My alarm keeps going off and I have been told it could be due to the multi plug needs cleaning. Can you give me any more info on how to find the mulit plug, is it under the passenger side at the front of the car, or at the back seats. Any help much appreciated. Going to have a search for it...
