The ECU of the Renault Clio is, for those who do not know, the electronic control unit that manages the engine operation. When it is determined that it is the cause of malfunction, provided it is not broken and therefore needs to be replaced, you can try a total reset to restore its correct operation.

What needs to be done is very simple, in practice we need to open the engine hood, locate the car's power supply battery and disconnect one pole of it. We wait a few seconds and reconnect it, then try the car and make sure everything works.
