Kadjar Terminal 15 Ignition Error

I'm having a strange issue with my 2019 Renault Kadjar diesel. I'm getting an error indicating an interrupted Terminal 15 ignition positive. The engine won't start, and the error memory confirms the fault. From what I've gathered, the likely cause is a defective cable or plug connection. I've checked the battery terminal and starter solenoid, but everything seems fine there. Could it be a relay switch issue? Has anyone experienced this before?

Sounds familiar. I had a similar problem with my Kadjar. Check the wiring harness near the ignition switch. Could be a loose connection or a damaged wire.

Thanks for the quick response. Could you be more specific about where exactly to look for the wiring harness and what I should be looking for in terms of damage? Any particular wires known to cause this issue?

Honestly, tracing it yourself can be a pain. In my case, it was a chafed wire bundle near the steering column. I'd suggest taking it to a workshop. They'll diagnose it properly and fix it right.

Thanks, I appreciate the advice. I took it to a workshop, and you were right. It was indeed a damaged wire in the harness. The repair cost me 95€, and the car is starting fine now.
