we're talking about an inductive magnetic sensor here. as everyone on here should know magnetic strength is affected by heat (ever had a brushed motor "go off" when the can gets hot?) weak magnet = weak signal. weak signal thru poor connection = no signal.
no signal = no running
i'm just trying to get the point across that this has been such a common problem that a modified part/s have been released to permanently resolve any issues!
the newer sensors have better thermal protection & have been modified to give a stronger more reliable signal
for a while people were just replacing the sensors for the fault to remanifest itself further down the line due to corrosion/loose connections in the wiring
by replacing both the sensor & wiring you are prety much guaranteed a permanent repair
Mark has found the same thing with some Ford parts so its not a Renault specific situation/fix
like i said early on
do it once
do it right
