Faults
Faults are declared present or stored (depending on whether they appeared in a certain context and have
disappeared since, or whether they remain present but are not diagnosed within the current context).
The present or stored status of faults should be taken into consideration when the diagnostic tool is switched on
after the + after ignition feed (without any system components being active).
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 instructions in 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 for these lines (for oxidation, bent pins, etc.),
–the resistance of the component detected as defective,
–the condition of the wires (melted or split insulation, wear).
Conformity check
The aim of the conformity check is to check data that does not produce a fault on the diagnostic tool because the
data is 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 complaints.
A synopsis of the general procedure to follow is provided on the following page in the form of a flow chart.

NOTESPriority in the event of a number of faults:
Deal with fault DF020 "Computer supply voltage" first, whether it is present
or stored.
Conditions for applying the fault finding procedure to stored faults:
Apply this fault finding procedure even if the fault is stored.
Notes:
This fault does not indicate a system failure, but indicates either overheating of the
Electric Power-Assisted Steering (EPAS) motor (160˚C) or of the computer (100˚C)
during repeated manoeuvres.
This fault can occur following repeated actions on the steering wheel (parking) and
causes a reduction in the steering assistance.
Check the conformity of the battery voltage and carry out fault finding on the charge circuit if necessary.
Remove the underside of the dashboard in order to gain access to the EPAS.
Ensure (carefully) that the EPAS is not still hot.
If the EPAS is still hot, let it cool for an hour before working on it.
Make sure that nothing in the EPAS environment can cause overheating (presence of components under the
dashboard, etc.).
Repair if necessary.
After leaving the EPAS to cool (PR008 Computer temperature and PR009 Steering motor temperature less
than 30˚C), clear the fault, start the engine and check that the EPAS is operating correctly by repeatedly carrying
out parking manoeuvres (turn the wheel slowly from the right-hand to left-hand lock positions).
Check that PR014 Level of assistance available = 100%.
If the fault is present once more or is stored after just a few manoeuvres, contact Techline.
AFTER REPAIRClear the stored faults.
Check that the EPAS is working.
Deal with any other faults.

In the event of an accumulation of faults, deal with the other present and stored faults
before applying the interpretation for this fault.
Conditions for applying the fault finding procedure to stored faults:
The fault is declared present after having started the engine and turned the steering
wheel from lock to lock.
Notes:
–This fault causes an absence of steering assistance or a loss of steering assistance
and also illuminates the STOP indicator light + Message or assistance is limited to
30% and the SERVICE indicator light + Message come on.
Disconnect the 2 black connectors from the EPAS computer.
Check the condition and conformity of the connectors and their clips.
Check the conformity of the electrical supplies (they must be equal to the battery voltage).
In the event of a fault, check the insulation, continuity and the absence of interference resistance on the
following connections:
8-track connector track 8 + 12 V after ignition
2-track connector track 1 + 12 V before ignition feed
2-track connector track 2 Earth
Repair if necessary.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.
