ALP 6 Radio reception faults
Poor radio reception.
Does the radio "scan"the stations in FM mode?
NO
Does the sound cut out for < than 1 second from
time to time in FM mode?
Does the radio crackle?
NO YES
The vehicle is in an area of poor reception.
YESFault external to the radio (transmitter
synchronisation).
YESThe vehicle is in an area of poor reception.
The radio takes longer to find an adequate
transmitter.
Disable AF in Expert mode.
With the vehicle outside and in an area with
good reception, test the reception level in the
radio's fault finding menu.

permanent and on all stations.
Is the fault permanent?
YES
Check the continuity and insulation of the wiring
between the radio and the aerial amplifier. Carry
out the tests on the aerial.

Is the test OK?
YES
Replace the radio.NOWithout moving the vehicle, compare the
level with that of a Long Wave station.

*SDVC: Speed-dependent volume control.
ALP 7 The volume does not increase with the vehicle speed.
The SDVC* function does not work.
Check the radio configuration (Expert mode).
Set the “SPEED” curve to 5 and run a test when
driving at a speed greater than 48 mph (80 km/h).
Does the volume vary?
YES
The fault has been rectified.
Reset the control to: CURVE 2.
NOCheck the signal on connection 47F
(See Wiring Diagrams Technical Note New
Twingo, code 261) with a multimeter in the
frequency meter position or with an
oscilloscope.
The frequency should change with the speed.
Does the signal frequency change with the
speed?
NO YES
Replace the radio.
The fault is linked to the speed signal
(see 38C, Anti-lock braking system,
conformity check).
