1. SCOPE OF THIS DOCUMENT
This document presents the fault finding procedure applicable to all computers with the following specifications:
2. PREREQUISITES FOR FAULT FINDING
Documentation type
Fault finding procedure (this manual):
–Assisted fault finding (integrated into the diagnostic tool), Dialogys.
Wiring Diagrams:
–Visu-Schéma (CD-ROM), paper.
Type of diagnostic tools
–CLIP + multiplex line sensor
Special tooling required
3. REMINDERS
Procedure
Scénic II ph2: To run fault finding on the vehicle computers, switch on the forced + after ignition feed.
Proceed as follows:Vehicle(s): Espace IV phase 2, Scénic II phase 2,
Trafic II phase 2, Kangoo 2
Function concerned: Multimedia
Special tooling required
Multimeter
Elé. 1681 Universal bornier
Switch on the forced + after ignition feed:
–with the vehicle card in the card reader,
–press and hold the Start button (longer than 5 seconds) with start-up conditions not fulfilled,
–connect the diagnostic tool and perform the required operations.
Switching off the forced + after ignition feed:
Press the Start button twice briefly (less than 3 seconds).
Ensure that the + after ignition feed has been cut off by checking that the computer warning lights on the
instrument panel have gone out.

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.
