Had the same problem and found this thread, Gave it the full Muckyman approach and just wanted to say how well it worked. So Simple Kontrol Crystals, cut and emptied teabag and filled with crystals, taped up teabag and then taped to inside of rubber cap and replaced on headlight unit Couldn't...

Mmmm - You have me doubting what I saw on the digs now but I am 90% sure thats what it said Apparently its a switch that sits behind the brake pedal somewhere. I could see on the screen that the diags knew the pedal was being depressed and released but we couldn't get the management light on...

Ended up swinging by a local renaultsport specialist (Chris @ Beaniesport) who with his somewhat more expensive diagnostics found a code and cleared the code . Brake Servo switch apparently! Took about 1 min to plug the machine in and clear the code, ran it around for around 15 mins and no EML...

all looks pretty solid and in place i was bale to use a length of dwell and ensure everything was pushed home. Just a thought but is it possible would the engine management system detected the new recon ballast and think there is problem?

Thanks - I'll take a look now although I guess i can't get to top of it where the connection is now everything is back on. I did wonder what that unit was, right at front on drivers side and did press the connection just to be sure. I may have dislodged it. Just my luck.

Got brave and busy this afternoon to sort a problem with xenon drivers side being temperamental Whipped the bumper off - no issues. Disconnected and removed headlamp - no issues Changed ballast for replacement bought online - no issues Reconnected connections to igniter, dipped and xenon and...
