MULTIPLEX NETWORK CONFIGURATION
For the
CAN Vehicle network:
The tool displays the UCH and/or Airbag configurations.
The Configuration screen consists of two tabs for displaying and modifying the:
–The first tab, Multiplex network configuration, indicates the multiplex network version and the list of computers
defined as present on the multiplex network.
–The second tab, Configuration of computers which support fault finding, indicates the relevant diagram
number, and the list of computers defined as supporting fault finding with the RENAULT tool.
First repair the computers containing the multiplex network configuration (Airbag and UCH) in order to
display the screen with the multiplex network configuration diagram for the vehicle on which fault finding is
being run.
For the
CAN Multimedia network:
The tool presents the configuration of the A2/A3 display.
The Configuration screen consists of two tabs for displaying and modifying the:
–The first tab, Multiplex network configuration, indicates the multiplex network version and the list of computers
defined as present on the multiplex network.
–The second tab, Configuration of computers which support fault finding, indicates the relevant diagram
number, and the list of computers defined as supporting fault finding with the RENAULT tool.
NOTESThe configuration is entered with the ignition on; apply the forced + after ignition
feed procedure (see Introduction).
It can be run from the multiplex network test results screens.
WARNING: the network version number is 1.
This is the diagram version which changes each time the multiplex network wiring is modified on this vehicle.

Fault finding – Configuration88B
First repair the computer containing the multiplex network configuration (A2/A3 display) in order to display
the screen with the multiplex network configuration diagram for the vehicle on which fault finding is being
run.
Here is the list of computers according to the radio equipment:
Radio R1-08:
–Radio R1-08
–A2 display
Radio R2-08:
–Radio R2-08
–A3 display
–Multimedia connection (C-box)
IMPORTANT
A computer connected to the multiplex network but not declared as being among the computers containing the
multiplex network configuration will not be checked in the multiplex network test.
Correct the configuration by declaring the missing computer as present in the computer or computers containing
the configuration.
Start the multiplex network test again after modifying the configuration.

Check first that the computers storing the configuration (Airbag and UCH) are
correctly supplied:
–check for earth on connection NAP, and for +12 V supply on connection AP25 on
component 756.
–check for earth on connections MAM and NAM, and for +12 V supply on
connections AP7, AP43, BP3, BP6, BP15, BP19, BP49 on component 645.
BETWEEN 70 ΩΩ Ω Ω
AND 110 ΩΩ Ω ΩFor each connection 133B and 133C, check that there is no interference resistance
and then check that there is no short circuit to earth or to the + battery feed.

FAULTY SEGMENT ON THE MULTIPLEX NETWORK
NOTESFirst check that the computer at the end of the faulty segment is properly powered
(earth, + battery, + accessories or + after ignition).
Always check the computer conformity.
IMPORTANT
It may be that the tool cannot exactly determine which segment(s) are faulty. It will then
suggest several segments that could be faulty. In this event, repair the segment closest
to the diagnostic socket.
Isolate the faulty segment by disconnecting both ends of the segment. Check the condition of the connectors.
Check the continuity and insulation of the CAN H and CAN L lines (connections 133B and 133C) between the two
connectors of the isolated segment.
Refer to the vehicle's multiplex network diagram for the allocation of tracks on the computers and connections.
Perform the necessary operations to check the continuity of the two lines (for example, replacing the wiring).
Make sure that the computer present in the vehicle is compatible and that the data it is producing is correct.
Reconnect the segment.
Carry out the multiplex network test again using the diagnostic tool.
Is the segment still declared faulty?
NOEnd of fault finding.
YESAre there other faulty segments?
NO
Repeat the multiplex network tests to ensure the continuity and insulation of the CAN
H and CAN L lines (connections 133B and 133C) between the end of the faulty
segment and the diagnostic socket.
YESApply the same procedure to each segment.
