In this video, you can see a simple way to fix a problem affecting Renault Clio, especially the IV version: the headlights work strangely or do not work at all. The issue may be caused by the relays responsible for this function, located in the fuse box situated in the cabin, between the steering wheel and the driver's door, at the bottom of the dashboard.

These are relays 1-2-3. Relay number 1 does not directly affect the external lights, but the YouTuber suggests removing them and then putting all three back in place.

This way, you should resolve the issue with the lights not functioning properly.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
