Injection warning light
13
OPERATING PRINCIPLE OF THE DIESEL INJECTION WARNING LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
On switching on the ignition, the diesel injection fault warning light is illuminated. It extinguishes as the en-
gine begins to run.
•Fault in a component of the injection assembly
Faults in the following components may cause the warning light to illuminate :
- injector with sensor
- advance solenoid valve,
- engine speed sensor ,
- load lever potentiometer,
- pre-postheating (according to version).

Pre-postheating control
13
The pre-postheating function is controlled by the
computer, which controls the preheating plug re-
lay housing.
1) Ignition - Preheating
The preheating process is divided in two
phases :
a) Variable preheating
This is dependent on the coolant tempera-
ture, on the battery voltage and on alti-
tude (internal computer sensor) when the
ignition is switched on (the preheating
warning light illuminates).b) Fixed preheating
After the preheating warning light has
extinguished (variable preheating), the
plugs remain fed for 8 seconds before the
engine is started.
2) Starting the engine
During the action of the starter motor, the
four plugs are fed continuously.
3) Engine running - Postheating
The postheating also may be divided in two
phases:
a) Fixed postheating
After starting the engine, the plugs are
supplied simultaneously for a period of 10
seconds.
b) Variable postheating
Variable postheating begins when fixed
postheating ends. The time during which
the plugs are fed (continuously) depends
upon :
- the coolant temperature
- the engine speed ,
- the load (load potentiometer on pump
lever ).
Maximum preheating limit (battery vol-
tage lower than 9.3 volts and altitude hi-
gher than 2 000 m).
Minimum preheating limit (battery
voltage greater than 10.5 volts altitude
lower than 350 m).

Variable postheating may be interrupted :
- permanently, if the coolant temperature is >
60°C,
- temporarily , if the unit receives full load
information for more than 3 seconds; the
function is established once again if the
engine returns to idle speed or low load,
- temporarily again if the battery voltage is
>16 V; the function is restored if Ubatt
< 15 V.
In all cases, the total duration of the postheating
function will never exceed 3 minutes.

If there is a fault with one of the components listed below, the computer enters "defect mode", which means
that replacement values are used to ensure engine operation.
