Seeking Advice on Troubleshooting Lighting System Issues in 2019 Renault Arkana

Warning light in the speedometer of the vehicle

Error in the lighting

Hey everyone, my 2019 Renault Arkana has started showing some weird issues. The error seems to be in the lighting system, and there's also a warning light popping up on the speedometer. I'm suspecting it could be a defective bulb, but not completely sure. Anyone ever faced a similar problem or got any pointers on how to troubleshoot this? Would appreciate any insights about your experience getting this fixed at a workshop. Thanks a bunch!

Hey, I ran into a similar issue with my 2017 Renault Koleos. I should note, I'm no car expert but I've had some experience dealing with these kind of issues. Turns out, for me, it wasn't the bulb but a defective cable connection to the lamp, including a few warning lights popping up like in your case. Cost me about 180 euro at my local workshop to get it sorted. Could it be the same for your Arkana? But hard to tell without seeing the car. So, any other info about the symptoms or changes you've noticed in the car's behavior would help to give a better diagnosis. Hope this helps!

Thanks for the quick response! It's interesting to know about your experience with the Koleos. To add, the issue seems to get worse when driving at night or in low-light conditions. And I guess my Arkana's behavior has been pretty much the same except for this. Btw, the last service was done when the car was at 70758 km, with no issues raised then. I'm keeping my fingers crossed hoping it's nothing serious. I'll look into your suggestion about the defective cable. Appreciate your help!

No worries, happy to help out! Given the symptoms you mentioned and the fact that it seems worse in low-light conditions, it could indeed be a connection problem like I had with my Koleos. It might be an intermittent fault hence why it wasn’t picked up during the last service. In my case, the service guys initially overlooked it because the warning light would turn off at times. So it's definitely worth getting it checked out. If it is a defective cable, it shouldn't be a major repair or cost too much. Let me know how you get on! Best of luck with it!

You've been such a great help! That intermittent issue could be possible in my case as well. I'm gonna head to the workshop tomorrow and get this checked out. I'm hoping for it to be a minor issue like you said. Will definitely let you know about the progress. Cheers for your help!
