ABS and SERV lights on on my sisters 1.2 16v heap of junk and it's worrying her because she's a girl.
What can I use to find out which ABS sensor is playing silly buggers? Got a bluetooth OBD thing and Torque, works with MultiECUScan for my Alfa but what's the renault thingy?

Be worth checking the front abs rings if you have nothing to read it with, they are prone to rusting up and cracking. Not saying it won't be a sensor but it's easy enough to check.

Cheers Joe, I will check that. Comes on and off so that might be the issue. It's just had a clutch and this problem has started :sigh:

Not a lot on the Renaults.
I don't think I'm over your way anytime soon either sadly. A few decent readers can get into the ABS.
Check the front rings for starters, as said they often crack etc.

Airbag and Serv light is an airbag fault, usually the pretensioner wiring under the seats.
RSTuner is what you need, but it's not cheap.

If you want the genuine diagnostic product it's called CLIP
And it's stupidly expensive. But if your ever anywhere near me I'll scan it in work no problemo.
If not. Just go to a garage. A normal snap on scanner will be able to scan it

Just check the wires under the seats first. Stupid fault on the Clio.

This is ABS not Airbag boys
It seems the rings on the driveshafts are the likely cause. She's off on holiday on Sunday so I'll look next week.
