 Renault Megane - 01 1,6 Argh! French electrics - idle problem - Dave
I was very careful when I did the DRL, as I didn't want to touch any of the existing electrics, what with it being French an' all. So the only place it touches is an ignition feed from a fuse in the engine fusebox that drives the DRL relay. The fuse was only removed with ignition off, and I connected a live feed to the battery without disconnecting anything. So in theory (!) there shouldn't be any electrical gremlings.

I though about a vacuum pipe, but if I pull out the plunger on the valve and reinstall, it won't idle, whereas if I push in the plunger, it ticks over really high. So in theory if there was a vacuum leak it would still idle with the plunger out. So I think it's basically busted.
