First answer is check the chassis earth and i should have thought of that as i had a 02 plate sport that started and cut out and it was the negative (earth) lead that had come loose just nip both ends up with a spanner and try it again

As said by pulliptears too there is some sort of box that controls the electrics that can cause this and it's a bit pricey but still worth checking everything else before panicking.

A google of clio uch problem makes interesting reading

Yep Multi Timer, or UCH unit, as I said earlier its position in the passenger footwell puts it in direct line of water tracking down from the sunroof in older Clio's making it a very common, and rather expensive problem.

The car needs to be reprogrammed to I believe, making it harder to find an independent to do it. I don't know where you are Mandi, but I was fortunate to find an ex main dealer who still had the kit in Biddulph (Staffordshire) otherwise it would have been a lot more expensive.

Make a few calls and try some independents first, it was a few years ago when mine went so more places may have the kit now?

It is pricey, but Im happy to say its the only issue I have ever had with my little 99 Clio, he's just approaching 30k now and keeps plodding on

I will Pullip thank you . I really want the car roadworthy. It's ran for 7 years without a major problem and I'm kind of attached to it .:)

Same, my late Dad bought him for me so I'm a bit sentimental with him lol
I keep being told about how awful Renault are but have to say the Clio has been a dream really with very few issues. That said, he's off for an MOT on Saturday....I may be back here ranting

Good luck hun

You can pick up used units but you need to swap over a few bits and pieces there is a company near me who i use who specialize in clio's i think they charge between £100 - £160 depending on engine (what engine you got?) they will post it out with 3 months warranty.

I have seen fitting for around £50 too i will pm you some details later as i can't post links in here, First thing i would do is check the battery connections and all the relays etc before going down the worst scenario route.
