03 carbon cannister and accelerator problems - dsawyer1984
I have a renault clio 2003 03 plate dynamique with some crash damaged now repaired i fitted a new carbon cannister + evap valve but i think i may have a pipe missing, i have a pipe +wire loom plug on the valve on the top, but on the cannister i have only one pipe but looks like there should be 2 can any one help???

Also when i was running the engine up all was going good no air locks and fan cut in, after finishing this i turned the engine off for ten mins the on restarting the accelerator does not work at all can any one help???

Crash rebuilds are difficult to advise on as so many odd things can happen.

If the fly-by-wire has defaulted, check the brake pedal switch adjustment and if that's OK, you'll have to plug it in to see the various status readings in live-data.

Check to see when the brake lights function, or watch the status of the pedal position sensor change in live-data.
