Is it an air flow fault?
NO
Is it a heater performance fault?
NO
Check that the air recirculation flap does not remain closed when in the recirculation position. On the diagnostic
tool, status ET062 "Recirculation flap position" should display OPEN (the flap can be seen by removing the
windscreen frame).
Repair if necessary (apply the fault finding procedure for fault DF021 Recirculation motor circuit).
Is the fault still present?
YES
Carry out a conformity check of the temperature sensors
(internal, external and engine coolant temperature).
Depending on vehicle equipment, check that the interior air
temperature sensor micro-turbine is working correctly (if it is
faulty it may cause the measurement to be incorrect).
Replace any faulty components.YES

ALP 5 No passenger compartment ventilation
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check using the
diagnostic tool.
Special notes:
The 2 x 5-track intermediate connector is located on the LH side of the distribution /
ventilation unit (behind a plastic cover) and the passenger compartment fan control
module is located slightly higher up, below the heater matrix pipes.
Check that the fusesare in good condition.
Using the diagnostic tool, check that the passenger compartment fan
control setting given by the computer varies from 0 to 100% by checking
parameter PR019 Passenger compartment fan PWM setpoint
(refer to the interpretation of this status).
Does the value vary?
YES
Check that the control voltage (PWM) (modulated control voltage) of the passenger
compartment fan power module varies between 5 and 12 V (from 0 to 100%) by
measuring between track 6 of the module's 6-track connector and earth
(connector connected).
Note:
The check procedure is given in the Help section.
Does the voltage vary correctly?
NO
Check the insulation, continuity and absence of interference resistance on the
following connection:
Air conditioning computer 18-track
connector
track 7
Repair if necessary.Power module 6-track connectortrack 6
With the ignition on, check for +12 V accessories feed on track B1 and an earth on track B5
of the black 2 x 5 track intermediate connector (screwed to the base of the console).
Repair if necessary.

(seal under the bonnet separating the engine compartment
from the windscreen aperture).
–Drain valve on the radiator tank fitted and in good condition.
Repair if necessary.
Is the fault still present?

NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check using the
diagnostic tool.
Pressurise the cooling circuit.
Is there any coolant leaking into the vehicle?
NO
Check that the evaporator drain ring is not blocked
(under the body).
Repair if necessary.
Is the fault still present?
YES
Check that the scuttle panel (under the windscreen frame) is not filled with water.
If it is, check that the drain valve is fitted to the scuttle panel and is in good condition.
Replace the valve if necessary.
Has the customer just washed the vehicle?
YES
Explain to the customer that when washing the car using a
hose pipe, the water jet must not be left for too long on the air
inlet in the scuttle panel (on the bonnet).

ALP 13 No control panel lighting
NOTESOnly refer to this customer complaint after a full check of the multiplex network
and the air conditioning with the fault finding tool.
Special notes:
With the ignition on, the control panel screen is permanently on but the panel buttons
only light up when the sidelights are switched on.
Note:
If the external temperature sensor is faulty, the climate control computer is
switched on 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on (this allows a fault to be
identified as fault finding cannot be performed on the external temperature sensor
by the UCH).
Is the fault common to other components (instrument panel,
multifunction display, electric window buttons, etc.)?
YES
Switch on the ignition and switch on the side lights to check
there is a 12 V supply on track 6 of the brown 12-track
connector (PPH2) of the Protection and Switching Unit.
Is there a 12 V supply?
YES
Check the connection and the condition of the connectors at the air conditioning control panel
output.
Repair if necessary.
Check the insulation, continuity and absence of interference resistance on the following
connection:

Using the diagnostic tool and the conformity
check in this document, check that the lighting
rheostat is working correctly using parameter
PR122 Night-time lighting level.
Does the parameter vary?
YES
Is the fault still present?
YES
Contact your TECHLINE.
NO
NO Use the diagnostic tool to check the
instrument panel (which is providing the 0 V
rheostat controlled information).
If fault DF037 "Instrument panel lighting
rheostat" is present: apply the associated fault
finding procedure (see corresponding
section).
If no faults are present or stored: run fault
finding on the multiplex network (the 0 V
rheostat controlled signal is reaching the air
conditioning control panel on the multiplex
network).

ALP 14 Air conditioning noises during operation
NOTESOnly deal with this customer complaint after a full check with the diagnostic tool
(fault reading and configuration checks).
Check that the computers involved in the air conditioning function (Injection, Protection and
Switching Unit, UCH and Air conditioning control panel) are correctly configured.
Reconfigure if necessary (see 62A, Air conditioning, Configurations and Configuration reading).
Check that:
–the compressor fitted to the vehicle corresponds correctly to the engine (see MR 370 Mechanical, 62A, Air
conditioning, Air conditioning: Parts and consumables for the repair).
Replace the compressor if necessary (see MR 370, Mechanical, 62A, Air conditioning, Compressor: Removal
- Refitting).
–the compressor is correctly fixed (see MR 370 Mechanical, 62A, Air conditioning, Compressor: Removal -
Refitting).
Check the condition of the compressor belt and check its tension. Replace the belt if necessary (see MR 370
Mechanical, 11A, Top and front of engine, Accessories belt: Removal - Refitting).
Check that the intermediate pipes, condenser and dehydrator reservoir are correctly fitted.
–Check the mountings and brackets of the components.
–Check the contact between and proximity of the components.
(see MR 370 Mechanical, 62A, Air conditioning, Air conditioning: List and location of components).
Check the correct operation of the cooling fan assembly or passenger compartment fan assembly and
condenser:
–check the electrical supply of the fan using parameters ET007 High speed fan assembly control, AC009 Low
speed fan assembly and AC010 High speed fan assembly (see 62A, Air conditioning, Conformity check,
Cold loop sub-function).
Check the quantity of refrigerant (see MR 370 Mechanical, 62A, Air conditioning, Air conditioning: Parts
and consumables for the repair).
If the quantity of refrigerant is:
–Greater than the manufacturer's information, recharge according to the manufacturer's values (see MR 370
Mechanical, 62A, Air conditioning: Draining - Filling).
–Less than the manufacturer's information, check for leaks (see MR 370 Mechanical, 62A, Air conditioning,
Refrigerant circuit: Check).
If the fault is still present, replace the compressor (see MR 370, Mechanical, 62A, Air conditioning,
Compressor: Removal - Refitting).
AFTER REPAIRPerform a complete check using the diagnostic tool.
