Fault finding – Introduction
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 procedures (this manual):
–Assisted fault finding (integrated into the diagnostic tool), Dialogys.
Wiring Diagrams:
–Visu-Schéma (CD-ROM), paper version.
Type of diagnostic tools:
–CLIP
Type of special tooling required:
3. RECAP
Procedure
To run fault finding on the vehicle's computers, switch on the ignition in fault finding mode (forced + after ignition
feed).
Proceed as follows:
–Renault card in the card reader (keyless vehicle scenario 1, standard, not hands-free and scenario 2, top of
the range, hands-free),
–press and hold the Start button (longer than 5 seconds) with start-up conditions not fulfilled,
–then connect the diagnostic tool and perform the required operations.
To cut off + after ignition, proceed as follows:
–disconnect the diagnostic tool,
–press the Start button twice briefly (less than 3 seconds),
–check that the + after ignition feed has been cut off by checking that the computer warning lights on the
instrument panel have gone out. Vehicle: Scénic II

SPECIAL TOOLING REQUIRED
Multimeter
Elé. 1681 Universal bornier
Note:
The left-hand and right-hand xenon bulb computers are powered when the dipped headlights are lit. Fault finding
procedures can only be carried out on them after the ignition has been switched on in fault finding mode (+ after
ignition imposed) and the dipped headlights are on.

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 after the
+ after ignition feed has been supplied (without acting on 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 notes 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 faulty component,
–The condition of the wiring (insulation melted or cut, chafing, etc.).
Conformity check
The aim of the conformity check is to check statuses and parameters that do not produce a fault display on the
diagnostic tool when they are 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.
Notes about the conformity check for the air conditioning system
All variables (statuses and parameters) and commands required for the air conditioning function are divided into four
sub-functions:
–the COLD LOOP sub-function, which groups together all the information required for producing cold air,
–the USER SELECTION sub-function, which groups together all the information relating to the user's requests
(buttons pressed, warning lights, etc.),
–the HEATING sub-function, which groups together all the information required for producing warm air,
–the PASSENGER COMPARTMENT VENTILATION sub-function, which groups together all the information
relating to ventilation, distribution and air distribution within the passenger compartment.

ALP 1 No dialogue with the computer
NOTESNone.
Try the diagnostic tool on another vehicle.
Check:
–the connection between the diagnostic tool and the diagnostic sensor (wiring in good condition),
–the connection between the vehicle's diagnostic sensor and the diagnostic socket (cable in good condition),
–the injection, engine and passenger compartment fuses.
Check for + 12 V battery on track 16, and + 12 V after ignition feed on track 1 and an earth on track 5 and
on track 4 of the diagnostic socket.
Repair if necessary.
Disconnect the connector from the climate control computer in order to check the insulation, continuity and
the absence of interference resistance of the following connections:
Climate control computer 12-track connector:
Track 11 + before ignition (see the vehicle wiring diagram)
Track 10 + accessories feed (see the vehicle wiring diagram)
Track 6 Earth
Track 7 Track 6 of the diagnostic socket (CAN H)
Track 1 Track 14 of the diagnostic socket (CAN L)
Repair if necessary (see the vehicle wiring diagram).
AFTER REPAIRPerform a complete check using the diagnostic tool.
