Richness
For the catalytic converter to operate correctly, adjust around richness 1.
The richness regulation controlled by the upstream sensor which ensures a richness of around 1.
The upstream sensor supplies a voltage according to the image of the average engine richness: the voltage supplied
to the computer represents a Rich-Lean signal.
For the upstream sensor to be operational very rapidly, it is heated. The heating works only when the engine is
running. It is deactivated at speeds above 84 mph (140 km/h) or when the engine is under load.
The downstream sensor is also heated. The command does not activate immediately after starting the engine. It is
activated when the engine is running and has reached its operating temperature. The downstream heating sensor is
deactivated at speeds above 84 mph (140 km/h) or when the engine is under load.
Torque management
The torque structure is the system for managing engine torque. The torque structure is required for certain functions
such as the electronic stability program (ESP) or sequential gearbox (BVR).
Each computer (ESP, BVR) sends a request for torque via the multiplex network to the injection computer. This
intervenes between the torque requests received and the driver's requests (made via the pedal or the cruise control/
speed limiter function). The result of this intervention is the torque setpoint to be applied. Using the torque reference
value, the structure calculates the throttle position reference value and the ignition advance and if the turbocharging
function is present, calculates the turbocharging solenoid valve reference value.
Engine coolant temperature management
Engine cooling is performed by one or two fan assemblies (depending on the vehicle equipment). The injection
computer requests the UCH to actuate them via the multiplex network.
To provide cooling when the engine is running, activation of fan assembly 1 is requested if the coolant temperature
exceeds 99˚C and is deactivated when the temperature drops below 96˚C.
Fan unit 2 starts when the coolant temperature exceeds 102˚C and stops when it falls below 99˚C.
With the engine off, only GMV1 may be activated to provide the anti-percolation function (if engine is stopped when
very hot). The anti-percolation function is active with the ignition off for a determined period. During this time, fan
assembly 1 is activated if the coolant temperature exceeds 100˚C and is deactivated when the temperature drops
below 95˚C.
If the engine temperature exceeds the warning threshold of 118˚C, the injection computer directly commands the
coolant temperature warning light to illuminate or requests this action from the instrument panel computer via the
multiplex network, until the coolant temperature drops back below 115˚C.
As well as managing the engine, the injection computer handles cooling requirements for the air conditioning and
sequential gearbox functions.

1. OPERATING SAFETY
Activation of the warning lights
The SIM32 injection system manages the illumination of three warning lights according to the severity of the faults
detected, to inform the customer and to assist with fault finding.
The injection computer manages the activation of the warning lights on the instrument panel. These warning lights
illuminate during the starting phase and in the event of an injection fault or engine overheating.
The warning light activation commands are sent to the instrument panel.
Warning light illumination principle
When the ignition is switched on, the OBD (On Board Diagnostic) warning light is illuminated for approximately
3 seconds and is then extinguished.
If there is an injection fault (severity level 1), the SERVICE warning light is illuminated.
It indicates a reduced level of operation and a limited safety level.
The user must carry out repairs as soon as possible:
–motorised throttle valve,
–accelerator pedal potentiometer,
–inlet manifold pressure sensor,
–computer,
–actuator feed,
–the computer power supply,
–turbocharger pressure sensor (for D4FT 780).
For faults requiring the driver to stop the engine quickly, the severity level 2 warning light is illuminated.
If a fault causing excessive exhaust gas pollution is detected, the orange OBD warning light engine symbol is
illuminated:
–the light flashes if the fault could lead to a risk of destroying catalytic converter (destructive engine misfire). If this
happens, the vehicle must be stopped immediately.
–the light is permanently illuminated if the emission control standards are not met (pollutant engine misfire,
catalytic converter fault, oxygen sensor fault, inconsistency between the oxygen sensors and a fuel vapour
absorber fault).
Mileage travelled with fault
The parameter PR106 Mileage counter fault warning light illuminated displays the mileage covered and
illuminates one of the injection fault warning lights: fault severity level 1 (amber) and 2 (red). The parameter
PR105 Mileage counter OBD fault warning light illuminated displays the mileage covered and illuminates the
OBD warning light.
This counter is reset to 0 using the diagnostic tool via the command RZ001 Fault memory.

Injection computer:
The injection computer manages the entire system.
Its role is to define the engine optimum operating mode and to inform the driver (via the instrument panel, information
display, and buzzer) and to communicate with the other computers.
Fuel vapour recirculation solenoid valve:
The fuel vapour absorber works like a ''sponge'' for petrol vapours and enables gases coming from the tank to be
collected.
Upstream oxygen sensor:
This sensor measures the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas.
The voltage supplied to the computer by the sensor indicates the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas - a rich
mixture or a lean mixture - and a program is adopted accordingly.
Downstream oxygen sensor:
This sensor measures the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas.
The voltage supplied to the computer by the sensor indicates the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas - a rich
mixture or a lean mixture - and a program is adopted accordingly.
Pinking sensor:
The sensor detects engine knocking and sends its electrical signal to the injection computer.
Oil pressure sensor:
This sensor measures the engine oil pressure.
Turbocharger:
The turbocharger is used to supply the engine with more air.
Turbocharger pressure sensor:
This sensor indicates the pressure at the turbocharger air cooler outlet before the damper valve.
Ignition coil:
This acts both as an energy storage battery and a transformer. It generates high voltage ignition pulses and the
energy required to ignite the mixture.
Motorised throttle valve:
The motorised throttle valve supplies the engine with varying mixtures of fuel and air according to the load required.
This electronic control detects the position of the accelerator using a sensor (potentiometer) to inject the mixture.

Defect modes
Motorised throttle valve
In defect mode, the motorised throttle valve can assume six different statuses.
ET564 Defect mode type 1
This type groups together the faults that prevent the throttle from being controlled.
It causes the throttle control to be stopped: the throttle is in its safe position. By depressing the pedal, it is possible
to modulate the torque by cylinder cut-off and advance in order to keep the vehicle running.
The ESP, cruise control/speed limiter and automatic/sequential gearbox systems change to "defect mode". This
defect mode is always accompanied by the Type 2 defect mode.
ET565 Defect mode type 2
This type groups together the faults preventing the system from controlling the air flow modulation.
The associated defect mode limits engine speed by cutting off the injection (limiting engine speed to 2400 rpm at idle
speed and to 3500 rpm in other gears).
ET566 Defect mode type 3
This type groups together faults allowing you to deduce that the system has lost the accelerator pedal signal, but still
controls the air flow modulation (motorised throttle servo operational). Defect mode is associated with a constant
pedal setpoint for each gear ratio. The vehicle speed can vary by changing gear.
Suggested speeds on a flat road:
–12 mph (20 km/h) max in 1 - st,
–21 mph (35 km/h) max in 2 - nd,
–27 mph (45 km/h) max in 3 - rd,
–39 mph (65 km/h) max in 4 - th,
–below 54 mph (90 km/h) in 5 - th and 6 - th.
ET567 Defect mode type 4
This type covers faults that affect the motorised throttle valve monitoring system, the pedal and the turbocharging
circuit (for D4FT 780) or for faults for which there is a viable safety operating mode for the system.
The associated defect mode is a limitation of the throttle opening according to the engine speed. This results in the
speed being limited to below 66 mph (110 km/h) in 5 - th and 6 - th gear and giving the impression of a "soft"
accelerator pedal.Note:
This defect mode is an effect which occurs due to a fault, but does not necessarily originate from the throttle valve
itself.

2. PROGRAMMING
Flywheel target programming
(To be carried out when replacing or removing the TDC sensor).
The coolant temperature must be over 35˚C.
–Carry out an initial deceleration with injection cut-off (feet off the brake, accelerator and clutch pedals) between
3500 and 3000 rpm, in 3rd gear for at least 5 seconds for manual gearboxes.
–Decelerate a second time with injection cut-off (feet off the brake, accelerator and clutch pedals) between 2400 and
2000 rpm, in 3rd gear for at least 5 seconds for manual gearboxes.
Check the programming with ET089 Programming flywheel target: Performed.
Programming the throttle end stops
After replacement of the computer or the motorised throttle valve, with the ignition on, wait 30 seconds so that the
computer can program the Upper and Lower limits and then switch off the ignition and wait 30 seconds for the end of
the "Power Latch", so that the computer can store the programmed limits. Check the programming with ET051
Programming throttle stops: Performed.
Programming the alcohol level (only for vehicles running on Ethanol or E85 fuel)
Fuel recognition is carried out by observing the drift of the richness controller.
This can only be performed if the mixture regulation is looped (ET300 Mixture regulation).
Programming procedure:
–start the engine,
–wait for the engine coolant temperature to reach 75˚C and then check using the parameter PR064 "Coolant
temperature",
–run the engine at 1500 rpm for a period of at least 5 minutes,
–check that the programming has been carried out using status ET671 Alcohol level programming and
parameter PR743 Estimated alcohol level in tank,
–the programming is saved when the ignition is switched off. Note:
After replacement of the throttle valve run the command RZ005 Programming to erase any recorded
programming.
Note:
When the injection computer has not recognised the fuel composition, operation is faulty.
