Hi Guys ,

I drive a 2000 Renault Clio . Tonight both indicators & the central locking failed .

I have a warning light on the dash advising me to contact the dealer .

Does anyone have any idea what might be the problem & can it be fixed ? because I really love this little car for getting around .:)


Thank you

    Check the drivers manual - see if they are on the same fuse ?

    might just be a relay, check your hand book to see if the indicators and the central locking are connected in the fuse box

    Possible but you'll only find out by checking wich one and replacing it.

    Clio's aroiund that age were known for having dicky hazard light switches. We used to replace quite a few.

    However, that wont solve the locking problem.

    Grab handbook and check fuses.

    In the meantime, assuming you have read the Highway code you can continue to drive without indicators ;-)
  • Can you still lock the car doors with the key?

    Do the hazard lights work?
    You can't be lost if you don't know where you're going.

    I managed to lock the doors but had to do it manually . The hazards lights are not working at all either :)

    My educated guess then would be the hazard switch, try & get 1 from a breakers yard if you have 1 close to save forking out alot of money from a dealer & hope that the switch you et works. lol

    How are you going to dohand signals driving in the dark?
