Modus sporadic errors warning lights

Hi, I have a 2006 Renault Modus diesel. I'm getting sporadic errors and warning lights. Audio and navigation systems sometimes fail, and the control units can become unresponsive. Error memory has stored errors. Mileage is 214543 km. Any ideas?

Oh my, that sounds all too familiar! I had nearly the same issue with my Modus, although I can't remember the exact mileage. When you say 'control units become unresponsive', do you mean everything just shuts down completely, or is it more like a temporary freeze? Also, did you already use an OBD-II scanner?

The systems temporarily shut down or become unresponsive. I haven't tried an OBD-II scanner yet. Was your issue similar, and what was the fix?

Absolutely identical! My CD player would just die mid-song, the navigation would send me to the middle of nowhere, and warning lights would flash like a Christmas tree! Seriously, though, it's probably the cable connection of the control unit; it's likely defective, especially the connection to the BUS system. You should take it to a workshop.

Thanks for the info! I took it to the workshop, and you were spot on. Defective cable connection to the BUS system. Repair cost 155€. Appreciate the help!
