4. FAULT FINDING PROCEDURE (continued)
Wiring check
Fault finding problems
Disconnecting the connectors and/or manipulating the wiring harness may temporarily remove the cause of a fault.
Electrical measurements of voltage, resistance and insulation are generally correct, especially if the fault is not
present when the analysis is made (stored fault).
Visual inspection
Look for damage under the bonnet and in the passenger compartment.
Carefully check the fuses, insulators and wiring harness routing.
Look for signs of oxidation.
Tactile inspection
While manipulating the wiring harness, use the diagnostic tool to note any change in fault status from stored to
present.
Make sure that the connectors are properly locked.
Apply light pressure to the connectors.
Twist the wiring harness.
If there is a change in status, try to locate the source of the fault.
Inspection of each component
Disconnect the connectors and check the appearance of the clips and tabs, as well as the crimping (no crimping on
the insulating section).
Make sure that the clips and tabs are properly locked in the sockets.
Check that no clips or tabs have been dislodged during connection.
Check the clip contact pressure using an appropriate model of tab.
Resistance check
Check the continuity of entire lines, then section by section.
Look for a short circuit to earth, to + 12 V or to another wire.
If a fault is detected, repair or replace the wiring harness.

Fault finding - Role of components
Role of main components
–Display: displays various multimedia system data such as the station selected, time, CD listing and satellite
guidance information.
–Steering column control: allows the various system functions to be used via the steering wheel control.
–Speakers and tweeters: relay the sound from the multimedia system into the vehicle.
–CD changer: enables compact discs to be loaded and music to be relayed to the
receiver.
–AM/FM aerial: receives radio signals from various transmitters.
–GPS aerial: receives various data transmitted by satellites.
–Radionavigation computer: controls various multimedia system functions depending on the user's requests and
transmits audio information in the vehicle via the speaker
(see 86A, Radio).
–Cartographic map DVD: loads maps into the navigation computer.
–AM/FM aerial amplifier: improves the reception of AM/FM signals.
–Multimedia network interface unit: enables signals to be exchanged between the "vehicle" and "multimedia"
multiplex networks. This computer is involved in activating the multimedia system (see 86D, Multimedia
network interface unit).
