A new automotive application article about a hesitant Renault Megane is available.
Intermittent problems in cars can give garages a hard time, especially when their only diagnosis device is a fault code scanner and no codes are stored in the car. A garage deals with a 1998 Renault Megane 1.6 L with K7M engine with a dual fuel system, both petrol and LPG. Every now and then, the engine hesitates, both on petrol and on LPG. The garage performs some measurements and replaces the ECM, to no avail. Using an automotive oscilloscope the search was continued and the culprit was found.
