i hate my car so much everytime it rains it looses all its power for like 3 seconds at a time then the power comes back and it just keeps doing this and i cant find out whats causing it. im pretty sure its getting something wet somewhere but i dont no what none of the main parts feel wet the only part thats low enough down to be getting wet looks like the coil

What engine? Take off your dizzy cap and give it a good coating in dw40 will protect it from the damp

clio 1.8 im pretty sure its not the dizzy cap getting wet as its at the back of the engine and it the water never gets up there but i will still give it a try

Are you on stock ECU? I can't remember.

yh i am

Well, could be a lot of things tbh, a on off problem is difficult to trace. In the Renault engine loom there should be a small fuse and relay box. One is the main system relay, the other is for the fuel pump. I've had issues with both in the past which would cause lack of fuel or lack of everything. Lack of sparks is anything HT, back to the loom and LT side of the coil to ECU. Or, the VR sensor (Crank sensor) when they get old can have a dislike for water, my old 1.7 one used to try and stop in fords...

iv got a see through box with all the fuses in is that what you mean?

Not the standard Volvo one on the bulkhead.

Did you do the electrics yourself, buy a loom from Adam or buy the car with the engine in? Do you have picture taking and putting up on the web facilities?

if it's only when it rains it could be the leads that are fault, try spraying water on them on a dry day to see if sparks are flying all over the place

i bought the car like it and yeah i can take pictures, tell me what to take a pic of and ill get 1

Ok, from the battery should be a 4ishmm red wire (may be red with white flash), Follow that to the fuse box. Where is the ECU? Indoors or on the inner wing

its on the inner wing

checked your CPS yet fraz? the guys wiring didnt look very water resistant to say the least so id go over everything with a soldering gun and some good heatshrink
