To cut off + after ignition, proceed as follows:
–Disconnect the diagnostic tool.
–Press the Start button twice briefly (less than 3 seconds),
–See that the + after ignition feed has been cut off by checking that the computer warning lights on the
instrument panel have gone out.
Faults
The current status of faults must be considered when the diagnostic tool is used following switching to + after
ignition (with no action on the system components).
For a present fault, handle the fault according to the procedure listed in the section on Interpretation of faults in
Workshop Repair Manual 372 Section 87B Passenger compartment connection unit.
There is no stored fault on the tyre pressure monitor.
Conformity check
The aim of the conformity check is to check statuses and parameters that do not produce a fault display on the
diagnostic tool when they are 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 features the fault finding procedure for statuses and parameters, and the conditions for checking them.
If a status is not operating normally or a parameter is outside permitted tolerance values, you should consult the
corresponding fault finding page.
Customer complaints - Fault finding chart
If the check using the diagnostic tool is satisfactory but the customer complaint is still present, the fault should be
treated as a customer complaint.
A summary of the overall procedure to follow is provided on the following page
in the form of a flow chart.

Fault finding - System operation

Program no.: 350 and higher
Vdiag No: 48-4C-4D-4F-50
System operation:
–The valves are activated after driving at a speed greater than 12 mph (20 km/h).
–During driving, the valves emit signals every minute.
–The valves remain active for 15 minutes after the vehicle stops, then switch to standby mode.
–In standby mode, the valves emit signals only if they detect a pressure difference between two successive
measurements greater than 68 mbar or if the pressure difference since last emitting is greater than 68 mbar (due
to tyre cooling).
–The tyres are considered to be cold when the vehicle speed has been zero for 1h 45 min.
–The minimum time for detection of a leak is approximately 15 minutes.
–The message Pressure unsuitable for the speed is activated only if the vehicle travels at more than 102 mph
(170 km/h) (as an indication) for 3 minutes and the pressure on at least one of the tyres is 400 mbar less than the
recommended pressure at low speed. This message is inactive if the tyres are inflated to motorway pressure,
irrespective of the vehicle speed.
–Alert thresholds:
–over-inflated while cold =recommended pressure + 700 mbar
–over-inflated while warm = recommended pressure + 850 mbar
–under-inflated = recommended pressure - 400 mbar
–very under-inflated = recommended pressure - 600 mbar
–imbalance = difference in pressure between the left-hand and right-hand wheels on the same axle greater
than 500 mbar
–Tyre pressure monitor information messages for the driver:
–"PUNCTURE: CHANGE TYRE" + STOP warning light + highlighting of the wheel concerned on the
instrument panel display + buzzer.
–"ADJUST TYRE PRESSURE" + highlighting of the wheel concerned on the instrument panel.
–"INFLATE TYRES MOTORWAY" + highlighting of all four wheels on the instrument panel.
–"TYRE SENSOR INOPERATIVE" + clearing of the wheel concerned.
–"ELECTRONIC FAULT" + "Service" warning light + the wheels concerned disappear from the
instrument panel.
–Tyre pressure monitor information messages for a puncture with the PAX System:
–"PUNCTURE: REPAIR TYRE" + highlighting of the wheel concerned on the instrument panel.
–"PUNCTURE: SLOW DOWN" + buzzer (if vehicle speed > 48 mph (80 km/h)).
–"DRIVING WITH FLAT: X MILES REMAINING" (X decreases from 120 miles (200 km) to 0) + STOP
warning light when X = 0 + highlighting of the wheel concerned on the instrument panel.

No instrument panel display of tyre pressure on the SCENIC II.

IMPORTANT
CONFIGURATION INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND UCH
1
st case: If the instrument panel detects the tyre pressure monitor system programmed in the UCH but
not in its own configuration. The message ELECTRONIC FAULT appears, the four wheels
disappear on the instrument panel display, and the Service warning light comes on.
2
nd case: The instrument panel detects that the Tyre pressure monitor is programmed in its own
configuration but the UCH fails to respond to any requests from the instrument panel (not
configured in UCH). The message TYRE SENSOR INOPERATIVE will appear, the four wheels
will disappear from the instrument panel display and the Service warning light will come on.

NOTESNone
Try the diagnostic tool on another vehicle.
Make sure the tool update 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 computer power supply
–the engine and passenger compartment fuses.
Make sure that the CLIP sensor is fed by tracks 16 (+ 12 V), 4 and 5 (earth) of the diagnostic socket, which
can be seen by the two red warning lights on the sensor lighting up.
Make sure that the CLIP sensor is connected to the computer's USB port.
Make sure that the CLIP sensor is communicating properly with the vehicle's computers; this can be seen by
the two green diodes on the sensor lighting up.
Check the following tracks on the diagnostic socket:
track 1 + After ignition feed
track 16 + battery feed
tracks 4 and 5 Earth
Repair if necessary.
Check the continuity, insulation and absence of interference resistance on lines:
multiplex line H (diagnostic socket track 6)
multiplex line 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 the earth (tracks 4 and 5)
If dialogue with the UCH still has not been established after all the checks, contact your Techline.
AFTER REPAIRCheck that no faults are still present.
Check that the system is operating correctly.
