    It was me who found and first documented the home button reset. I've found it to be 100% effective, although infrequently required. Never had to perform a fuse pull.

    Our 2017 Zoe's touch screen had stopped working, and then the R-Link kept powering back up after the car was locked - we came back from a week's holiday to a 0% traction battery and associated errors (we'd left it sat on the drive with about 75% in 7 days before)! Nearly resigned to a Renault garage trip, but the trusty 'press the home button as fast as you can' trick worked for us - a full reset has made the touch screen work again and all is powering down (and staying off!) as it should! Thank you once again Matt (and other users who have passed on the home button wisdom!)!!

    Thanks for sharing the fix. Yesterday evening discovered that the dashboard was still on (sort of idle mode) and RLink system was showing the time. I could switch it on with the “volume” button, but then I discovered that the touchscreen did not work. Long story short, moved the car to our charger (must be weird for the neighbours, as I was moving cars in the middle of the night🤣), charged the car. This morning the car was fully charged. Pressed 5 times (quick sequence) the home button on the RLink and voila, the RLink was working again. When I locked the car, the dashboard switched off. Now wait if the auto lock will activate (locked the car with the remote last night)

    thats interesting that when you pull the fuse you dont have to put a code in to get the r-link radio to work again . In my wife's Clio mk4 when you disconnect the medianav radio by fuse or from the 12v battery you have to input a 4 digit code to get the radio working.

    DAB reception has failed on our 2018 ZOE, Renault dealer tried replacing the aerial base booster electronic unit but that didn't work, now they say its the head unit, Renault Dealer Earranty (carcase plan) have chosen to have my unit refurbished, so we qill be without the head unit for about 2 weeks, is it OK to use the ZOE without the head unit in place? Any issues you can think of?

  • @giubaca
    @giubaca 4 года назад

    To correctly disconnect the 12v battery: open the bonnet and all doors are shut (not locked), wait 20-30 minutes (anyway more than 15...). In this time the vehicle will go into 'sleep' mode. Now simply disconnect the negative terminal (in one move! Avoid double touching the terminal) . At this stage the vehicle should be completely dead like absolutely nothing will come ON.
    In this stage is safely to remove/replace the 12v battery or disconnect the main safety plug from HV battery.
    You should not disconnect the 12v battery before vehicle goes into 'sleep' mode

    DAB reception suddenly became very poor, local Renault dealer diagnosed aerial base signal booster, BUT that didnt fix priblem, now they say its the head unit (screen bit is fine, so they must mean the silver box behind it that looks like a radio box. CarCarePlan have agreed the head unit can be replaced with brand new.
    My local dealer says the dash has to come out to replace it?
    I understood it was pull off central display surround, undo connector, undo 4 bolts remove screen & silver box, undo connectors, snd remove the screen & silver box, then separate the 2 components.
    Is that how you understand it?

    • @GoGreenAutos

      Corrosion holds them on tight. Kick it or lower it gently back onto the tyre (without the bolts in) to unstick it. Or if its really stuck, you need to use a long bit of timber as a lever.

    Our zoe has recently started saying battery charging impossible. It has been into Renault a couple of times where they have done some kind of reset and they have also done a full computer reset but then it only charges once after and reverts to not charging. The garage said it might be the hardware and we will need to replace the terminal at a cost of £1500! Car is 2014. Terminal doesn’t appear damaged and the problem only started after the garage had done a service on her. Any ideas?

    • @GoGreenAutos
      @GoGreenAutos  3 года назад

      When it doesn't charge are you at home? If you have an earth rod in the ground, empty a bucket of water over it, so the ground around the earth rod is wet. Wait 2 minutes and then try the Zoe again. If it then charges, then you need to improve your earth connection with a second rod or a longer rod to reduce the resistance of the earth connection. The Zoe is sensitive to this.

      Need more info. Which battery have you replaced? The 12V aux battery? The radio security code is on a sticker on the back page of your owners manual. Zoe's don't normally require you to enter a security code if you disconnect the 12V battery, but I suspect that is your problem.

    Please can someone knowlegdably tell me two things re my 2020 Renault Zoe Iconic, as follows:
    1) when I got into the car today the screen said there was 196 miles range left but even though I then drove just 2 miles and parked, the figure had i n c r e a s e d to 213...???????
    2) on the door pillar the manufacturer says that tyre pressures should be 38 front and 33 rear. However, KwikFit, who after all are tyre specialists, insist on 33 all round...????????
    I'm so konfused on both points that that's why I've spelt the word beginning with a letter 'k!'

    • @GoGreenAutos
      @GoGreenAutos  3 года назад

      The range on the display is always an estimate based on many factors, with recent driving history being the main one. So if today, you're driving more economically than yesterday, the range meter can go up as it as you drive.
      KwikFit are no experts - just fitters! I don't have a Zoe here currently so can't check, but the tyre pressures are normally higher on the rears than the front. But anyway, go with what the label says, not what KwikFit say.

    I’ve driven a lot of cars, and I’m currently using a Renault Koleos as a hire car and it is by far, the worst most broken car I have ever driven. Do not buy one of these utter pieces of shit.

    That's only a Windows phenomenon, that you need to reboot your computer.
    I am using Ubuntu Linux on my desktop PC and I never need to reboot it. Rebooting is just a Windows thing, other operating systems don't need to reboot, because they are coded properly.

      You are correct about LInux, but both Android and IOS users are advised to reboot their phone/tablet/computer regularly. Don't know what's inside the R-Link ;-)
