Bargraph 5 LH flashing
Needle lift sensor circuit

The needle lift sensor circuit fault is present if the bargraph illuminates when the
engine is running. Use bornier Elé. 1332 for any operations on the computer
connector.
NOTES
Measure the resistance of the needle lift sensor at its connector.
Replace the injector with the sensor if the resistance is not approximately 105 ohms.
Ensure the continuity of the following connections:
- Between track 7 on the computer connector and track 1 on the needle lift sensor connector.
- Between track 3 on the computer connector and track 2 on the needle lift sensor connector.
Test the connections on the 2 connectors.
Fiche n° 60 1/2
Ensure the insulation of the connection between track 7 on the computer connector and track 1 on the
needle lift sensor connector .
Also ensure the insulation between the 2 lines on the needle lift sensor.
Also check the condition of the wiring between the sensor connector and the sensor.
If the fault persists after these tests, replace the injector with the sensor.
If the "needle lift sensor circuit" fault reappears, replace the computer (consult the "Aid" section for this
operation).
The "needle lift sensor circuit" fault may be connected to absence of injection at the cylinder with the
sensor.
Check the condition of the injector and its fuel supply.

1.dEF
This fault indicates that the advance corrector is seized, the injection pump has been incorrectly set or
there is a fuel supply fault.
It is taken into account when the advance noted by the needle lift sensor differs by more than 5° from the
advance value requested by the computer.
NOTE : If there is a fault where the advance corrector is seized, there will be a characteristic noise when
the ignition is switched on (irregular clicking of the corrector).
The fault is present if the bargraph is illuminated when the engine is
running.NOTES

CONT
- Check the condition of the fuel supply to the pump and the injectors (filter blocked, pipe kinked, air
leak, ...).
Check the type of diesel fuel used in extreme cold weather (a "summer " type diesel fuel may cause
this fault at -15 °C).
- Check the pump timing and check the tightness of the pump pulley.
- If the fuel supply and the pump timing are correct, replace the advance corrector.

Carry out a road test then check using the XR25.AFTER REPAIR
If the fault persists, check the fuel supply circuits (for the pump and the injectors).
If necessary, carry out a complete check of the engine (starter drive speed, pump timing, condition of
injectors, rocker arm clearances, compression, .....).NOTES
Chart 4STARTING FAULT (ENGINE WILL NOT START OR IS DIFFICULT TO
START) (warning light extinguished).
Only consult this customer complaint after a complete check using the XR25.
If no fault is shown by the XR25, ensure that the fault is not caused by a faulty immobiliser system.
Check the operation of the preheating system:
Start command mode G10*1* and check for a voltage at the plugs.
If the plugs are not fed, check the connection of the 3 track connector on the relay unit and the condition
of the 70 Amp fuse on the engine connection unit.

-+ 12 V after the fuel pump relay on track A of the oxygen sensor.
Repair if necessary.
The fault persists. Replace the oxygen sensor.
The fault persists! Replace the injection computer.
IMPORTANT: The computer has probably been damaged by an electric shock. The cause of the damage
must be found before fitting a new computer.

-Fault on fuel pump relay circuit.
-Other cases, which have not yet been noted, may well exist.
