3. REMINDER
PROCEDURE
To run fault finding on the vehicle's computers, switch on the ignition in fault finding mode (forced + after ignition
feed). Run the self-test procedure for the UPC internal relays and fuses using AC016 Electrical supply circuit
test.
Depending on the type of vehicle equipment, proceed as follows:
To cut off the + after ignition feed, proceed as follows:
Faults
Faults are declared as either present or stored (depending on whether they appeared in a certain context and have
disappeared since, or whether they remain present but have not been diagnosed within the current context).
The present or stored status of faults should be taken into consideration when the diagnostic tool is used following
the + after ignition supply being switched on (without operating the system components).
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 on these lines (corrosion, bent pins, etc.),
–the resistance of the component detected as faulty,
–the condition of the wires (melted or split insulation, wear). WARNING
Switch off all unnecessary consumers:
–Radio navigation system.
–Switch the passenger compartment ventilation speed to 0.
–Switch off the interior lights (forced off).
With the vehicle card in the card reader, press and hold the start button (+ 5 seconds) outside starting conditions,
connect the diagnostic tool and carry out the required operations.
Press the start button twice briefly (less than 3 seconds); check that the + after ignition feed has cut (computer
indicator lights on the instrument panel go out).

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 dealt with by
Customer complaints.
A summary of the overall procedure to follow is provided on the following page in
the form of a flow chart.

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.
Continuity, insulation and 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.

5. FAULT FINDING LOG
You will always be asked for this log:
–when requesting technical assistance from Techline,
–for approval requests when replacing parts for which approval is mandatory,
–to be attached to monitored parts for which reimbursement is requested. The log is needed for warranty
reimbursement, and enables better analysis of the parts removed.
6. SAFETY ADVICE
Safety rules must be observed during any work on a component to prevent any damage or injury:
–check that the battery is sufficiently charged (see TEST3 Battery status test),
–use the appropriate tools,
–do not touch the xenon bulbs.
–do not work on the COSLAD system when it is in operation, the voltage is greater than or equal to 20,000 V. IMPORTANT IMPORTANT
Any fault on a complex system requires thorough fault finding with the appropriate tools. The
FAULT FINDING LOG, which should be completed during the procedure, enables you to keep
track of the procedure which is carried out. It is an essential document when consulting the
manufacturer.
IT IS THEREFORE ESSENTIAL THAT THE FAULT FINDING LOG IS FILLED OUT EVERY TIME IT IS
REQUESTED BY TECHLINE OR THE WARRANT RETURNS DEPARTMENT.

Procedure to follow for modifying these configurations:
●Establish dialogue with the UPC.
●Select the repair mode menu.
●Select the configure menu.
●Select line VP004 Vehicle parameters.
●Select the line corresponding to the vehicle equipment from the drop-down menus.
●Confirm the configurations selected and then click on validate.
●Switch the ignition off and then back on for the configurations to be recognised by the computer.
●In the configuration reading menu, check that each configuration has been performed.
