trafic van problem

Unread post by geordie »

1.9 dci 100hp van,cut out whilst driving and will not restart although turns over freely and appears to have diesel to the fuel rail....thinking injectors not getting signal to operate.Thinking this is a similar engine to other renault vehicles albeit with a differant power output so does anyone know where to start with solving the problem as don't want to change loads of parts until it's sorted.
thanks in advance.

hi, 2 possable causes to start with , the uch or main control unit of the vehicle sits behind the steering colume and quite often has drinks that sit in the cup holders spill down onto it , the other coman problem is corrosion in the wiring loom behind the n/s/f head light, you have to remove the front panels to remove the head light , once you have done this inspect the wiring going down to the engine you may find it broken, hope this helps , Antz..
