Renault trafic cut out when it’s raining

[Seannorm]

Hi I’m look for a bit of help iv a 2007 Renault trafic 2.0 115 that has cut out when it’s wet damp weather it is not the injectors as they are bone dry and the scuttle has been sealed if it’s left for a few days in the garage to dry out it runs perfect I only have a cheap scanner and it’s bringing up po335 who’s is crank shaft sensor which I have replaced but still no difference any help would be appreciated

You bought a French van, what were you expecting?

Could be a broken wire letting damp in, the code you describe is a generic code and can be caused by a number of faults since the code is generated by the powertrain control module. causes could be as diverse as crank position sensor, broken cambelt, damaged cable not connecting, bad connection affected by damp, plus several more. in your case you can rule out the cambelt, and the sensor, I'd go for the connection.

Go round the vehicle cleaning the earths to engine, engine bay, chassis and battery.

Where is the ecu located, i know some vehicles have issues with water ingress to ecu which requires a new ecu.

Where abouts are you?
