STOREDMOTOR THERMAL PROTECTION
DEF: Operating temperature too high
NOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to stored faults:
Apply this fault finding procedure even if the fault is stored.
Notes:
This fault does not indicate a system failure, but indicates overheating either of the
Electric Power-Assisted Steering (EPAS) motor or of the computer during repeated
manoeuvres.This fault may appear after the steering wheel is moved repeatedly
(parking) and causes a gradual reduction in steering but the fault warning light does
not come on.
Use the diagnostic tool to check the conformity of PR129 Motor power (60 A) and PR130 Motor power (45 A)
(zero in absence of PR001 Torque applied to steering wheel).
Contact the Techline in the event of any nonconformity.
Check the conformity of the computer and steering column (45 or 60 A) in relation to the table below:
Left-hand drive Right-hand drive
Torque sensor wiring harness blue black
Motor wiring45 Agreen black
Motor wiring60 Ablue grey
45 A 60 A
Computer label yellow white
In the event of a nonconformity, consult "RENAULT NET" to repair the vehicle according to the technical vehicle
definition.
Disconnect the battery then allow the electric power-assisted steering to cool down.
Reconnect the battery, clear the faults, start the vehicle and check the operation of the electric power-assisted
steering by turning the steering wheel full lock to the left or right.
The fault should not recur in the next 30 seconds.
If the fault recurs as present or stored, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRDeal with any other faults.
Clear the stored faults.
Check that the EPAS is working.

DEF: Open circuit, short circuit to earth or short circuit to + 12 V
NOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to stored faults:
The fault is declared present after having started the engine and turned the steering
wheel from lock to lock, then returning it to the centre.
Notes:
This fault causes:
Loss of the "active return" function with no fault warning light or Beep.
Use the Wiring Diagram Technical Note for New Twingo.
With + after ignition feed off, check the connection and condition (possible wiring damage) of the connector of
component 502 and its clips.
With + after ignition feed off, check the connection and condition (possible wiring damage) of connector E and its
clips of component 583.
If the connector is faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair, Wiring:
Precautions for repair) repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Visually check the condition of the wiring harness of component 583 (for possible wiring damage).
If the connection or connections are faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair, Wiring:
Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace the steering column.
With the connectors of components 502 and 583 disconnected: check the continuity and insulation of the
following connections between components 502 and 583:
●Connection 109F
●Connection 109Z
●Connection 109X
●Connection 109I
If the connection or connections are faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair, Wiring:
Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace the steering column.
Check the condition of the tabs of the connections of component 502.
Contact the Techline in the event of any nonconformity.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRDeal with any other faults.
Clear the stored faults.
Check that the EPAS is working.

PROGRAMMING THE STEERING WHEEL ANGLE SENSOR
NOTESNote:
Deal first with DF038 Angle sensor.
Special note:
Every time the ignition is switched on, status ET020 is NOT PROGRAMMED.
Programming is performed automatically each time the vehicle is driven.
Drive the vehicle, then switch off the ignition and check that status ET020 is PROGRAMMED.
If status ET020 remains NOT PROGRAMMED after the vehicle is driven, carry out the fault finding procedure for
fault DF038 Angle sensor.
