FRONT WIPER PROTECTION
NOTESSpecial notes:
Only apply the checks if the status is ACTIVE or BLOCKED.
If the status is ACTIVE, this indicates that after a wiping request, the Protection and
Switching Unit has detected abnormal operation for more than 6 seconds
(constrained or blocked).
If the status is BLOCKED, this means that the total duration of intermittent pauses is
greater than 2 minutes.
The status returns to INACTIVE as soon as the UCH requests another wiping setpoint
(wiper control adjusted, or request by the rain sensor).
Use Wiring Diagrams Technical Note for Mégane II or Scénic II.
Make sure that nothing is mechanically blocking the movement of the wiper arms (blades stuck, condition and
assembly of the wiper mechanism linkage and that there are no objects that could impede the movement of the
mechanism).
Check that the wiper mechanism is not seized.
Repair if necessary.
Check the condition and connection of connectors CT1 and CN on the Protection and Switching Unit,
component code 1337.
If the connectors are faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair,
Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the connector, otherwise replace the connector.
Check the condition and connection of the windscreen wiper motor connector, component code 212.
If the connector is faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair,
Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the connector, otherwise replace the connector.
Check the insulation, continuity and the absence of interference resistance on the following connections:
–14M between components 1337 and 212,
–14L between components 1337 and 212,
–14K between components 1337 and 212.
If the connections are faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair,
Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.

REVERSE GEAR ENGAGED
NOTESSpecial notes:
Only apply the checks with the ignition switched on and when no faults are present.
Use Wiring Diagrams Technical Note for Mégane II or Scénic II.
5- and 6-speed manual gearbox
Check the condition and connection of the connector of the reverse gear switch, component code 155, the
manual gearbox neutral/reversing lights sensor, component code 1109, and UPC connector MN,
component code 1337.
If the connector is faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair,
Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the connector, otherwise replace the connector.
With the ignition on and reverse gear engaged, check for + 12 V on connection codes H66P and AP11 of
Protection and Switching Unit connector MN, component code 1337.
If the connection is faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair,
Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Check the insulation, continuity and the absence of interference resistance on the following connections:
–AP11 between components 1337 and 1109,
–H66P between components 1337 and 1109.
Reverse gear engaged:
–between AP11 and H66P on component 155.
If the connections are faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair,
Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.

STARTING CONDITIONS MET
NOTESSpecial notes:
Apply the checks if the status is at STATUS 1, STATUS 2 or STATUS 3 or YES, with
the ignition on.
STATUS 1
The UCH is preventing the Protection and Switching Unit from activating the starter.
Run fault finding on this computer (see 87B, Passenger compartment connection unit, UCH Vdiag No.: 44, 48,
4C, 4D, 4F, 50).
STATUS 2
The injection is preventing the Protection and Switching Unit from running the starter.
Run fault finding on this computer (see 13B, Diesel injection and 17B, Petrol injection).
STATUS 3
The automatic gearbox computer is preventing the Protection and Switching Unit from running the starter.
Make sure that the selector lever is in position P or N.
Run fault finding on this computer (see 23A, Automatic gearbox).
YES
If the conditions are met and the starter does not operate, see 16A, Starting - Charging, Starter.
If the fault is still present, contact your Techline.
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.

ALTERNATOR THERMAL FAULT
NOTESSpecial notes:
Apply the checks if the status is PRESENT with the engine running.
Switch off the engine.
Check the general condition of the alternator:
Make sure that there are no foreign bodies that could impair the alternator cooling.
Clean the alternator if necessary.
With the engine stopped, let the alternator cool down with the bonnet open for at least 1 hour.
Start the engine with the bonnet closed.
Switch on the main beam headlights and the electrical heated rear screen.
If the status becomes PRESENT again, replace the alternator (see MR 364 or MR 370 Mechanical, 16A,
Starting - Charging, Alternator: Removal - Refitting).
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.

BATTERY VOLTAGE
NOTESSpecial notes:
Check that all of the electrical consumers are switched off:
–Passenger compartment blower unit stopped.
–Radio off (and Radio navigation system if fitted to the vehicle).
–Interior lights off.
If fault DF013 Voltage regulation is not present (or stored):
With the engine stopped and no electrical consumers operating for 5 minutes.
Check the battery, see TEST3 Battery status test.
If fault DF013 Voltage regulation is present:
With the engine running at idle speed, and electrical consumers activated:
–Dipped headlights and side lights.
–Electric heated rear screen.
–Passenger compartment blower unit in maximum position.
Check the consistency between the battery voltage measurement from the multimeter and the value of PR004
