Fault code on my dash display

[rickywilly]

I need a little help from someone in the know ,my Trophy's devolped a faut code on the little dash display. looks like a p (ish) Something like 'P---.
What is this, a nomal mechanics obd reader doesn't pick up any fault, but the renault display says otherwise?? Can anybody help me? :?

Hi not sure if i can help but it would be interesting if you posted up a picture of this as iv never seen this happen myself. Also the eobd reader wont rear codes from your dash/instrument cluster, thats all stored on another control unit, do you have a snap-on kit you can get hold of or something along these lines?

I haven't got any sort of code reader e.t.c but i found this image off the net as it's far quicker than finding out how to re-size images lol. This is exactly the same error as mine, apart from the 'h' showing, mine hasn't got that just the t, not 'p' as i mentioned above :?

t mean an injection fault has been detected for a minimum of 4 seconds.

Had any problems with a misfire or anything like that?

I haven't a clue what this is, but i have found that my Trophy has stalled a few time recently at junctions etc, after dipping the clutch from 2nd gear to come to a stop. I haven't noticed a misfire, but it does hunt a bit on tickover.

Ricky, It may be worth trying to reset the dash.

Keep the computer stalk pressed in while turning the key to engage the electrics (not switching the engine on but the position before if you understand me).

this puts the dashboard into a self check mode. after a minute or so, switch off the ignition and go for a drive to see if the fault comes back. if it does, get it into a decent specialist.

Thanks for the advice, just to update you, i've reset the dash like you said, and touch wood the cars been fine, driving fine with no more codes. But... my cruise control and limiter don't register on the dash when turned on, they work, but the green and amber lights dont activate on my dash display when they're on, why they've started to bugger up i do not know.
But i can live with that i think, i'll put it down to another french electrical 'quirk'.

hhm, have you recently had it remapped?

 

[rickywilly]

I have cue, and it's really only started doing it since then, most things returned to normal, after a while. What can i do about the cruise control?

 

[Cue]

I suspected as much, this is common with remapped cars - it's to do with the EMS reprogramming. I had it when mine was done - I honestly can't remember the cure though, but there is one. Speak to Paul at RS Tuning, iirc he talked me through how to reset the CC light.

Thanks Cue, i'll get in touch with him and update the situation on here when i've got the cure.
