Zoe Cruise Control Failure

Alright, fellow Zoe drivers, I'm pulling my hair out here! My 2021 Renault Zoe, electric of course, is giving me grief. It's clocked 177901 km, and suddenly the cruise control is dead. Nothing! The dash throws up an error, which I scanned and it basically says the cruise control is kaput. I'm guessing it's a dodgy connection somewhere, maybe a cable or plug gone bad. I've checked the brake lights – they're fine. I even had a peek at the throttle position sensor, but that looks okay too. Anyone else had this happen?

A 2021 Renault Zoe experienced a cruise control failure, displaying an error message. The issue was suspected to be due to a faulty connection, possibly a cable or plug. Suggestions included checking the clock spring and fuses. Ultimately, a mechanic identified a loose plug as the cause, resolving the problem.

Did this summary help you solve your problem?

I had a similar issue with my Zoe. Cruise control just packed it in. Did you check the clock spring? That's a common culprit. Also, have you ruled out a blown fuse? Sometimes it's the simplest things.

Clock spring, huh? Interesting. I hadn't thought of that. Where exactly is that located, and is it something I can check myself without needing, like, a whole engineering degree? And which fuse should I be looking at specifically?

Yeah, the clock spring is behind the steering wheel. You'll need to remove the airbag to get to it, so maybe best leave that to a workshop unless you're really confident. As for the fuse, check the manual – there should be a diagram. But honestly, given the error code and symptoms, I'd bite the bullet and get it looked at professionally.

Thanks! I was hoping to avoid the shop, but sounds like the clock spring is a bit beyond my comfort zone. I took it to my local mechanic, and you were spot on! The error memory pointed to a defective connection. They found a loose plug. The bill came to 95€, which I think is reasonable. Thanks again!
