To cut off the + after ignition feed, proceed as follows:
–disconnect the diagnostic tool,
–press the start button briefly 2 times (less than 3 seconds),
–confirm that the forced + after ignition feed has been cut off by checking that the computer indicator lights on the
instrument panel have gone out.
Faults
Faults are declared as either present or stored (depending on whether they appeared in a certain context and have
disappeared since, or whether they remain present but have not been diagnosed within the current context).
The present or stored status of faults should be taken into consideration when the diagnostic tool is used following
the + after ignition supply being switched on (without acting on the system components).
For a present fault, apply the procedure described in the Interpretation of faults section.
For a stored fault, note the faults displayed and apply the notes section.
If the fault is confirmed when the instructions in the Notes section are applied, the fault is present. Deal with the fault
If the fault is not confirmed, check:
–the electrical lines which correspond to the fault,
–the connectors on these lines (corrosion, bent pins, etc.),
–the resistance of the component detected as faulty,
–the condition of the wires (melted or cut insulation, wear).
Conformity check
The aim of the conformity check is to check data that does not produce a fault on the diagnostic tool when
inconsistent. Therefore, this stage is used to:
–carry out fault finding on faults that do not have a fault display, and which may correspond to a customer
complaint.
–check that the system is operating correctly and that there is no risk of a fault recurring after repairs.
This section gives the fault finding procedures for statuses and parameters and the conditions for checking them.
If a status is not behaving normally or a parameter is outside the permitted tolerance values, consult the
corresponding fault finding page.
Customer complaints - Fault finding chart
If the test with the diagnostic tool is OK but the customer complaint is still present, the fault should be processed by
customer complaint.
A summary of the overall procedure to follow is provided on the following page in the form of a flow chart.

NOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to stored faults:
The fault is declared present after the battery is disconnected.
Check that:
–there is a + 12 V before ignition feed on track 1 of the electric power steering black 2-track connector,
–there is an earth on track 2 of the electric power steering black 2-track connector,
–there is a + 12 V after ignition feed on track 8 of the steering column assembly black 8-track connector.
If there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for
repair), repair the wiring, otherwise change the wiring.
Configure the computer using command SC001 Computer calibration, in line with the equipment and vehicle
type.
If the fault is still present, without customer complaints, the EPAS is secure.
If the fault is still present and the assistance level is severely reduced, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a road test followed by a complete test with the diagnostic tool.
