PR001
INTERIOR TEMPERATURE
NOTESNone
The climate control computer receives the interior temperature signal through a wire connection.
Read the temperature signal when the vehicle is cold (in the morning) to check the conformity of this parameter
(without a thermometer). The interior temperature, the exterior temperature and the engine coolant temperature
should be practically the same.
Another way of checking whether this sensor is correct is to check the resistance value of the sensor according to
temperature: refer to the electrical specifications of the sensor in the Help section (at the end of the document).
If the temperature displayed by this parameter is implausible, apply the fault finding procedure for fault: DF007
Interior temperature sensor circuit.
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.

EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE
NOTESNone
The climate control computer receives the exterior temperature signal through the multiplex line via the UCH.
Read the temperature signal when the vehicle is cold (in the morning) to check the conformity of this parameter
(without a thermometer). The interior temperature, the exterior temperature and the engine coolant temperature
should be practically the same.
If the temperature displayed by this parameter appears inconsistent: carry out fault finding on the UCH
(see 87B, UCH).

COOLANT TEMPERATURE
NOTESSpecial note:
The climate control computer receives the engine coolant temperature signal through
the multiplex line via the injection system.
Read the temperature signal when the vehicle is cold (in the morning) to check the conformity of this parameter
(without a thermometer). The interior temperature, the exterior temperature and the engine coolant temperature
should be practically the same.
If the temperature displayed by this parameter appears inconsistent, carry out fault finding on the injection system
(see 13B, Diesel injection or 17B, Petrol injection).

ALP 3 Air flow fault
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check with the diagnostic
tool.
Check that the customer knows how to work the air conditioning system properly.
Is the passenger compartment blower unit
working?
YES
Check that the air circuit (cabin filter, scuttle panel grille, air vents and extractors etc.) is not blocked.
If necessary, repair, clean or replace the cabin filter (see MR 411 Mechanical, 61A, Heating, Cabin filter:
Removal - Refitting).
Check that the blower blades are in good condition (see MR 412 Bodywork, 57A Interior equipment,
Passenger compartment blower: Removal - refitting).
Check that the blower unit is correctly sealed. Also check that the air distribution ducts (right-hand and left-hand,
upper and lower) are correctly connected to the housing as well as the refrigeration pipe in the glove box (if the
customer complains about a feeling of cold air on the passenger's side).
Repair if necessary.
Check that the air recirculation flap does not remain closed when in the recirculation position. On the diagnostic
tool, status ET062 Recirculation flap position should display OPEN (the flap can be seen by removing the
windscreen frame). Repair if necessary (apply the fault finding procedure for fault DF021 Recirculation motor
circuit).
With the passenger compartment filter removed, put
your hand into the housing to ensure that the
evaporator is not obstructed and that there is no ice.
Is the evaporator obstructed?
NO
NORepair, see ALP 5.
YESRemove the evaporator and clean if it is
obstructed.
If there is ice on the evaporator, carry out
a conformity check on the temperature
sensors (interior, exterior and coolant
temperatures).
Replace any faulty components.
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a complete check with the diagnostic tool.
