Kadjar fuel filter heater problem

Experiencing a fuel filter heater issue on my 2016 Renault Kadjar diesel at 98685 km. Getting reduced engine power, poor response, higher fuel consumption, and uneven idling. Suspect it's a cable or plug connection. Anyone else seen this?

Kadjar owner here. I had similar symptoms, though mine was a bit more intermittent. Did you check the fuel line?

Fuel line visually inspected, but no obvious damage. Did your issue present in the same manner? Trying to figure out if it's worth fixing myself or taking it to a workshop.

Yes, same symptoms. Eventually, the engine nearly stalled in cold weather. I’d advise visiting a workshop. Trying to fix it is time-consuming and not guaranteed.

Understood. Thanks for the advice. Took it to the workshop, 95€ for swapping the defective cable. Fuel consumption seems normal again.
