If the information obtained by the XR25 requires electrical continuities to be checked, connect bornier Sus.
1228.
Bornier Sus. 1228 is a 55 track base with a printed circuit on which are 55 copper coated surfaces, numbered
from 1 to 55.
Using the wiring diagrams, the tracks connecting the components to be tested can be easily identified.
IMPORTANT :
• All tests using bornier Sus. 1228 must be carried out with the battery disconnected.
• The bornier is only designed to operate with an ohmmeter. Under no circumstances should 12 Volts be
applied to the test points.

DESCRIPTION OF THE FAULT-FINDING PHASES
The process described below is to be carried out in all cases of faults.
XR25 FAULT-CHECKING
This phase is the essential starting point for any intervention on the vehicle.
There are several constraints to the treatment of the bargraphs :
- A priority in the order of treatment when several bargraphs are illuminated.
- The interpretation of a bargraph depending on whether it is constantly illuminated or flashing .
1 - Order of priority
A series of illuminated bargraphs corresponding to the sensors with the same 12 V or having the same
earth, indicates a fault in this source. These priorities are dealt with in the "NOTES" section of the
fault-finding of the bargraph concerned.
2 - Input / output fault bargraphs
a) Illuminated :
The fault is present : treat the fault following the method described in the "INTERPRETATION OF XR25
BARGRAPHS" section.
b) Flashing :
Note the bargraphs displayed on the XR25.
Erase the memory of the computer and attempt to re-illuminate the bargraph: ignition on, idle speed
(or at starter speed) or by means of a road test (the "NOTES" section in the fault finding for the
bargraph concerned may help to determine the conditions under which the bargraph will illuminate).
If the bargraph has re-illuminated (fixed or flashing) :
The fault is present once again. In this case, treat the fault bargraph.
If the bargraph has not re-illuminated, check :
- the electrical lines which correspond to the flashing fault,
- the connectors of these lines (for rust, bent pins...).
- the resistance of the component found to be faulty.
- the cleanliness of the wires (insulation melted or cut, friction..).
NOTE : If the customer complaint does not correspond to the fault bargraph which is flashing
(example : Air temperature sensor fault bargraph flashing, but no customer complaint) ignore
this memorised fault and erase it.
3 - No bargraphs illuminated
If no bargraphs are illuminated on the XR25, carry out a status and parameter check. This may help in
detecting a problem.

XR25 CHECKING STATUSES AND PARAMETERS
The status and parameter check is aimed at checking the statuses and parameters which do not illuminate
any fault bargraphs if they are outside of permitted tolerance values . This phase allows :
- Faults to be found without the illumination of fault bargraphs which may correspond to a customer
complaint (example : absence of no load information causing an unstable idle speed).
- The correct operation of the injection to be checked and the risk of faults appearing shortly after the
repair to be eliminated.
This section contains fault-finding for statuses and parameters, under their test conditions
(example : fault finding for # 01 ignition on and fault finding for # 01 engine running).
If a status does not operate normally or a parameter is outside of permitted tolerance values, consult the
fault-finding page indicated in the "Fault-finding" column.
XR25 CHECK CORRECT
If the XR25 check is correct, but the customer complaint persists, the problem must be dealt with through
customer complaints.
Treatment of customer complaints
This section has fault charts, which suggest a series of possible causes of the problem.
These lines of enquiry must only be used in the following cases :
- No fault bargraph appears on the XR25.
- No faults are detected during the checking of statuses and parameters.
- The vehicle is not operating correctly
POST-REPAIR CHECK
This operation is a simple check of the repair (by a command, or by an XR25 command mode ...).
This makes it possible to check that the system upon which the intervention has been carried out is correct
electrically.
It is an introduction to the road test.
ROAD TEST
A road test is essential in order to guarantee the correct operation of the vehicle and to test the quality of the
repair. Its role is to make sure that no faults occur (or will occur) when driving.
In order to be significant, the road test is subject to special driving conditions.
