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:
–make sure that the battery is properly charged to avoid damaging the computers with a low load,
–use the appropriate tools.
7. CLEANLINESS ADVICE TO FOLLOW WHEN CARRYING OUT OPERATIONS ON THE HIGH PRESSURE
DIRECT INJECTION SYSTEM
Risks relating to contamination
The system is highly sensitive to contamination. The risks associated with contamination are:
–damage to or destruction of the high pressure injection system and the engine,
–a component seizing or leaking.
All After-Sales operations must be performed under very clean conditions. This means that no impurities (particles a
few microns in size) should be allowed to penetrate the system during dismantling or get into the circuits via the fuel
unions.
The cleanliness guidelines must be applied from the filter through to the injectors.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 COMPULSORY TO COMPLETE A FAULT FINDING LOG
EVERY TIME A FAULT FINDING PROCEDURE IS PERFORMED

Fault finding – Cleanliness guidelines
I - RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH CONTAMINATION
The high pressure direct injection system is highly sensitive to contamination. The risks associated with
contamination are:
–damage to or destruction of the high pressure injection system,
–components jamming,
–a component leaking.
All After-Sales operations must be performed under very clean conditions. This means that no impurities (particles a
few microns in size) should have entered the system during dismantling.
The cleanliness principle must be applied from the filter to the injectors.
What are the sources of contamination?
metal or plastic swarf,
–paint,
–fibres:
–from cardboard,
–from brushes,
–from paper,
–from clothing,
–from cloths,
–foreign bodies such as hair,
–ambient air,
–etc.
II - NOTES TO BE FOLLOWED BEFORE ANY OPERATION
Check that you have plugs for the unions to be opened (set of plugs available from the Parts Department). The plugs
are single-use only. After use, they must be discarded (once used they are soiled and cleaning is not sufficient to
make them reusable). Unused plugs must be discarded.IMPORTANT
Cleaning the engine using a high pressure washer is prohibited because of the risk of damaging connections. In
addition, moisture may collect in the connectors and create electrical connection faults.
IMPORTANT
Before any work is carried out on the high pressure injection system, protect:
–the accessories and timing belts,
–the electrical accessories, (starter, alternator, electric power-assisted steering pump),
–the flywheel surface, to prevent any diesel from running onto the clutch friction plate.

Fault finding – System operation
System outline
The high pressure injection system is designed to deliver a precise quantity of diesel fuel to the engine at a set
moment.
It is fitted with a 112-track BOSCH EDC16 C3 type computer.
The system is comprised of:
–a priming bulb on the low pressure circuit,
–a diesel filter,
–a high pressure pump with a built-in low pressure pump (transfer pump),
–a high pressure regulator mounted on the pump,
–an injector rail,
–a diesel fuel pressure sensor built into the rail,
–four solenoid injectors,
–a coolant temperature sensor,
–a cylinder reference sensor,
–an engine speed sensor,
–a turbocharger pressure sensor,
–an accelerator pedal potentiometer,
–an EGR solenoid valve,
–an atmospheric pressure sensor integrated into the injection computer,
–an air flow sensor with an air temperature sensor,
–a turbocharging pressure limitation solenoid valve,
–a motorised damper valve.
The common rail direct high pressure injection system works sequentially (based on the petrol engine multipoint
injection).
This injection system reduces operating noise, reduces the volume of pollutant gases and particles and produces
high engine torque at low engine speeds thanks to a pre-injection procedure.
The high pressure pump generates the high pressure and transmits it to the injector rail. The actuator located on the
pump controls the quantity of diesel fuel supplied, according to the requirement determined by the computer. The rail
supplies each injector through a steel pipe.

a) The computer:
Determines the value of injection pressure necessary for the engine to operate correctly and then controls the
pressure regulator.
Checks that the pressure value is correct by analysing the value transmitted by the pressure sensor located on the rail.
Determines the injection duration necessary for supplying the correct quantity of diesel and the moment when
injection is required; controls each injector electrically and individually after determining these values.
The flow injected into the engine is determined by:
–the duration of injector control,
–the rail pressure (regulated by the computer),
–the injector opening and closing speed,
–the needle stroke (determined by a constant for the type of injector),
–the nominal hydraulic flow of the injector (specific to each injector).
The computer manages:
–idling regulation,
–exhaust gas flow reinjection to the inlet (EGR),
–fuel supply check (advance, flow and rail pressure),
–the CMV control via the Protection and Switching Unit (centralised coolant temperature management function),
–the air conditioning (cold loop function),
–the cruise control/speed limiter function,
–pre-post heating control,
–fault warning lights via the multiplex network.
The high pressure pump is supplied at low pressure by an integrated low pressure pump (transfer pump).
It supplies the rail, the pressure of which is controlled by the fuel flow actuator (MPROP) for charging, and for
discharging by the injector valves. This compensates for pressure drops. The fuel flow actuator enables the high
pressure pump to supply the exact quantity of diesel fuel required to maintain the rail pressure. This component
minimises the heat generated and improves engine output. In order to discharge the rail using the injector valves, the
valves are controlled by brief electrical pulses which are:
–short enough not to open the injector (passing through the feedback circuit from the injectors),
–long enough to open the valves and discharge the rail.

b) Multiplex connection between the different vehicle computers.
The electronic system fitted in this vehicle is multiplexed.
This enables dialogue between the various vehicle computers. As a result:
–the activation of the fault warning lights on the instrument panel is performed by the multiplex network, with the
vehicle speed sensor on the gearbox deactivated,
–vehicle faults are displayed by the multiplex network,
–the vehicle speed sensor on the gearbox is not needed.
The vehicle speed signal on the instrument panel is transmitted by the ABS computer via a wire connection, then
sent out on the multiplex network by the instrument panel. The vehicle speed signal is used mainly by the injection
computer and the airbag computer.
Some vehicles have adopted a sensor for detecting water in the diesel fuel, located in the filter. If there is water in the
diesel fuel, the orange "Injection and pre-post heating" warning light will come on.
The system can inject diesel fuel into the engine at a pressure of up to 1600 bar. Before each operation, check that
the injector rail is depressurised and that the fuel temperature is not too high.
You must respect the cleanliness guidelines and safety advice specified in this document for any work on the high
pressure injection system.
Removal of the internal parts of the pump and injectors is prohibited. Only the fuel flow actuator, the diesel fuel
temperature sensor and the venturi can be replaced.
For safety reasons, it is strictly prohibited to undo a high pressure pipe union when the engine is running.
It is not possible to remove the pressure sensor from the fuel rail because this may cause circuit contamination
faults. If the pressure sensor fails, the pressure sensor, the rail and the five high pressure pipes must be replaced.
It is forbidden to remove any injection pump pulley bearing the number 070 575. If the pump needs to be replaced,
replace the pulley.
Supplying + 12 V directly to any component in the system is prohibited.
Ultrasonic decoking and cleaning are prohibited.
Never start the engine unless the battery is connected correctly.
Disconnect the injection computer when carrying out any welding work on the vehicle.WARNING
The engine must not operate with:
–Diesel fuel containing more than 10 % diester,
–petrol, even in tiny quantities.

c) Hosted functions:
Air conditioning management assistance:
In the case of vehicles with climate control, the EDC16 system has the option of deactivating the air conditioning via
the UCH, under certain conditions of use:
–when requested by the driver,
–when starting the engine,
–if the engine overheats (in order to reduce the power the engine has to supply),
–when the engine speed is kept at a very high level (to protect the compressor),
–during transitory phases (such as demands for high acceleration when overtaking, anti-stall and start-up) These
conditions are only taken into account when they do not occur repeatedly, to prevent instability in the system
(erratic deactivations),
–when certain faults appear.
Cold loop air conditioning management:
The air conditioning is the cold loop type and its management shared between several computers.
The injection computer is responsible for:
–authorising cold requests according to the refrigerant pressure, the engine coolant temperature and the engine
speed,
–calculating the power absorbed by the compressor (from the refrigerant pressure),
–requesting operation of the GMV, from the UPC, according to the vehicle speed, the refrigerant pressure and the
engine coolant temperature.
The driver requests the air conditioning to be switched on by means of the ventilation selector coupled to a switch.
The cold air request is authorised or denied depending on the pressure measured. If this pressure is outside the
operating limits, the cold loop program is not activated.
Management of the damper valve:
The damper valve currently has three functions:
–the valve closes in order to block the passage of air towards the cylinders to shut off the engine. The aim of this is
to stop the engine as quickly as possible and to reduce instabilities as the engine is switched off.
–"valving" function depending on the engine operation: the damper valve closes by a few % to create a ''venturi''
effect at the EGR valve passage section.
The aim of this is to accelerate the air flow of EGR gases and to reduce the emission of pollutants.
