What to do if we have filled up our Renault or Dacia but the indicator does not show it.

Model: Dacia Duster HS, MK 1 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Instrument cluster

Let's see what the procedure is to solve the fuel gauge problem on a Renault or Dacia car that we have filled up, but the gauge does not show it. Turn the key, hold down the rev counter button on the dashboard, turn the key to start the car, check that all the warning lights come on, wait for the needles to rise and perform the self-test, and then the lights will gradually turn off. Release the key only after the check system is complete. Now the fuel gauge should correctly show the full tank. This procedure forces the system to recalibrate the gauges and reset the incorrect readings from the fuel sensor.

How to Open the Bonnet on the Lancia Y

To open the bonnet on this vehicle, follow these simple instructions: first, open the driver's door and locate the lever positioned just below the dashboard, marked with an image of the vehicle with the bonnet open. Pull this lever towards you until you hear a "click" indicating the bonnet is released. Next, exit the cabin and stand in front of the bonnet to disengage the safety catch and complete the opening. To do this, slightly lift the bonnet, locate the yellow lever underneath, and pull it to the left to fully release and open the bonnet.
