Hi
Only the red LEDs light up, nothing else. I don't know what the cable is for, sorry, but i can tell you that there should be two wires to connect.
Regards
Paul

i think someone once got a cd changer from ebay but it came from a phase 2 megane and he had a phase 1... i think the cd changer has white/blue illumination and the rest of the dash was red!

Mine's a Phase 2, so it's got white illumination, maybe the phase 2 changers were the only ones that lit up.

Hey, Hilly! It's dark, so just had to go & see!
My 57 Phase 2 has a Comfort Pack - includes 6CD Changer. It has the red pinpoint lights lit when it's in use, but also all the white lights come on with the sidelights. Whole centre console lit up like Xmas tree!
If you 'build your own Renault' on Renault website there are 2 6CD Changers. Basic is 4x15W In dash 6 Disc multi-changer £350. The snazzy one has MP3 compatability, £550. Perhaps your 3 pin bit suggests you have the £550 job
