Has it ever worked? How long have you had the vehicle?
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Hi There.
Everything was working perfectly until Monday. I connected my trailer to the car. While checking that everything worked. I noticed that the indicators were not working. I tried disconnecting the tailer cable to see if I had not put the socket in correctly. I then noticed that my car indicatores were not working at the back. The front and the mirror indicator was blinking, but very fast. On checking the rear of the car I noticed that the rear bulbs were flashing. also very fas, bit very dim. As if they were only getting a few volts.
On hgetting into the car I then noticed that my navi had a blank screen other than the analog clock,
I switched the engine off and back on again. Checked the Navi/radoi and found that I got the Renault logo on my display then nothing for a while, then the clock again. The Radio does nothing at all.
I found a fuse at the rear of the car had blown. Replaced this and the indicators worked again until yesterday. I drove off from home put the indicators on to turn and found that they wwr flashing fas and only at the front as before.
Pulled every fuse from the fuse box behind the glove box and found that every one was ok. Still no indicators at the back and no Navi/Radio.

Did you find any solution to this? Our Navi screen went completely dark a few years ago and still is. No clock no thermometer. At night time some back light can be seen, but still black screen
