Clio temperature readings

I'm having trouble with my 2020 Renault Clio Hybrid. It has 235652 km on it. I'm getting weird temperature readings, the check engine light is on, and the engine is slow to warm up. It looks like the cooling grille is restricted. Has anyone else had this?

I've got a Clio, but not a hybrid. I had a similar problem, and the restricted airflow was causing temperature issues. Have you checked the fuse box? Sometimes there's a fuse for the cooling system.

Thanks! Can I check the fuse box myself, or should I take it to a professional? I'm not great with car electronics.

Checking fuses is usually straightforward. The fuse box is in the engine compartment or under the dashboard, with a diagram. If you're not comfortable, take it to a workshop. Better safe than sorry! They can diagnose it properly. The workshop told me this could cause engine overheating.

Appreciate it! I brought it to my local shop, and a fuse was defective, like you thought! Total repair was 52€. Thanks; you saved me time and headaches!
