NETWORK CONFIGURATION
NOTESThe configuration is detected with the ignition on.
It can be launched from the multiplex network test results screens.
The tool displays the UCH and/or airbag computer configuration.
Configuration involves the following steps:
–Select the computer to be modified.
–Select the multiplex network diagram version.
The version number increases with each change to the multiplex network wiring in this vehicle.
This information is available in the global vehicle base.
Choice of computers in the vehicle present on the network
The following computers are always fitted to the vehicle:
–Injection
–Protection and Switching Unit
–ABS
–Steering lock (cannot be support fault finding with the tool)
–Instrument panel
–Passenger Compartment Control Unit (UCH)
–Electric power-assisted steering
–Airbag
+ the vehicle options:
–Automatic gearbox
–LPG
–Climate control
–Control and Communications Unit (cannot support fault finding with the tool)
–Automatic parking brake
–Driving School Unit (cannot support fault finding with the tool)
–Discharge bulbs
–Parking assistance
WARNING
A computer connected to the multiplex network but not registered in the computers containing the multiplex
network configuration will not be checked in the multiplex network test.
Adjust the configuration by declaring any missing computers as present in the UCH or airbag computer or both.
Relaunch the multiplex network test after modifying the configuration.

Diagnostics - Dealing with faults
FAULTY SEGMENT
NOTESFirst check that the computer at the end of the faulty segment is properly
supplied (earth, + battery, + accessories or + after ignition).
Always check that the computer is operating correctly.
Important: the tool may not be able to pinpoint the faulty segment(s). It then suggests
several segments that could be faulty. In this event, repair the segment nearest to the
diagnostic socket.
Isolate the faulty segment by disconnecting both ends of the segment. Check the condition of the connections.
Check the continuity of the Can H and Can L lines between the two connectors of the isolated segment.
Refer to the Help with finding short circuits section for computer and connection track allocations.
Perform the necessary operations to ensure the continuity of the two lines (for example, replacing the wiring).
Make sure the computer present in the vehicle is compatible with the Scénic II and that the data it is producing
is correct.
Reconnect the segment.
Carry out a new multiplex network test with the diagnostic tool.
Is the segment still declared faulty?
NoEnd of fault finding.
YesAre there other faulty segments?
NoRepeat the multiplex network tests to check the continuity and
insulation of the Can H and Can L lines between the end of the
faulty segment and the diagnostic socket.
YesApply the same procedure to each segment.
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a new multiplex network test with the diagnostic tool.
Clear the stored faults on all the computers connected to the network.
Deal with any other possible faults.

FAULTY COMPUTER
NOTES–Make sure the computers installed in the vehicle are the correct type and are
compatible with Mégane II.
–Check the power supply to the computers (earth, + battery, + accessories or + after
ignition).
Make sure that the computer wake-up mode is in full working order on the vehicle and properly assimilated
by the computers.
The wake-up mode is:
–timed power supply: UCH, instrument panel.
–+ accessories: Protection and Switching Unit, air conditioning control panel, radio, Control and
Communications Unit.
–+ After ignition: Injection, ABS, airbag, Electric Power Assisted Steering, Automatic transmission, LPG,
Steering lock, Roof control unit, Driving school unit, Automatic parking brake, Parking assistance.
–+ After ignition + dipped headlights: Xenon bulbs.
WARNING
Dialogue with the Xenon bulbs is only possible with + after ignition and the dipped headlights on.
–Switch to computer diagnostics mode.
Test of communication with computers.
⇒No communication from computers to diagnostic tool: see Fault Finding Chart 1
No communication with the computer or computers not communicating with the
diagnostic tool.
Check the connections to the computers and for no open circuit. Repair if necessary.
⇒Computers that only produce partial information when identified:
Check in the Workshop Repair Manual or Global Vehicle Base to see that the computer
really is compatible with Scénic II.
Make sure the CLIP diagnostic tool update is recent enough to handle Scénic II faults.
If after these tests no irregularity or open or short circuit has been detected, contact your Techline.
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a new multiplex network test with the diagnostic tool.
Clear the stored faults on all the computers connected to the network.
Deal with any other possible faults.

NOTESVehicle computer power supply for diagnostics:
Vehicle card in card reader.
Press and hold (over 5 seconds) the start button in the absence of start conditions (for
example: selecting a gear).
Connect the diagnostic tool and perform the required operations.
WARNING: The dipped headlights must be switched on to power the Xenon
headlights.
Try the diagnostic tool on another vehicle.
Make sure the tool version is more recent than CD-ROM No. 32.
Check:
–The connection between the diagnostic tool and socket (connection and cable in good condition).
–The computers' power supply.
–The engine compartment and passenger compartment fuses.
Make sure the CLIP sensor is properly fed by tracks 16 (+ 12 V), and 4 and 5 (earth) of the diagnostic socket,
indicated by the two red diodes on the sensor lighting up.
Make sure that the CLIP sensor is properly connected to the computer's USB port.
Make sure that the CLIP sensor is communicating properly with the vehicle's computers; this is indicated by
the two green diodes on the sensor lighting up.
green diodes red diodes
CAN Vehicle power supply
ISO Sensor power supply
Use the diagnostic socket to check the following tracks:
track 1 + After ignition
track 16 + Battery
tracks 4 and 5 Earth
Repair if necessary.
Check line continuity and insulation:
CAN H (diagnostic socket track 6)
CAN L (diagnostic socket track 14)
With a multimeter, make sure that the voltages at the diagnostic socket terminals are:
–2.5 V between CAN H (track 6) and the earth (tracks 4 and 5)
–2.5 V between CAN L (track 14) and earth (tracks 4 and 5) (average values)
See the Help with finding short circuits on the network heading in this section for how to detect short
circuits in the vehicle's multiplex network.
Check the continuity, insulation and for absence of interference on the K line of the diagnostic socket
(track 7).
