NOTESConditions for running fault finding on a present or stored fault:
Apply this fault finding procedure if the fault reappears as present or stored after the
ignition is switched on and air conditioning activation is requested with the engine
running.
Special notes:
The interior temperature sensor is located at the top of the roof in the unit under the
rear view mirror.

wiring repair, Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Check the resistance of component 1872 between connections 38JN and 38GZ.
Replace the sensor if the resistance is not 10 kΩΩ Ω Ω
± 500 ΩΩ Ω Ω
at 25 ˚C. For more details, consult the electrical
specifications of the sensor according to the temperature (see Help).
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.

STOREDMIXING MOTOR CIRCUIT
CO.0 : Open circuit or short circuit to earth
CC.1 : Short circuit to + 12 V
NOTESConditions for running fault finding on a present or stored fault:
The fault is declared present when the temperature control is activated (minimum or
maximum temperature request and air conditioning control panel on).
Special notes:
Wait 1 minute after repairing the fault so that the climate control computer can control
the mixer motor. To avoid having to wait for 1 minute, switch the ignition off and then
back on again.
There is no specific programming operation for the mixing motor, however, after it has
been replaced, the motor needs to program its limits (minimum and maximum).
Use the Wiring Diagram Technical Note for the New Twingo.
Check the connection and condition of the connector of component 420.
If the connector is faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for the
repair), repair the connector, otherwise replace the wiring.
With connector B of component 419 disconnected, check the insulation and continuity of the following
connections between components 419 and 420:
●connection 38LC
●connection 38LD
●connection 38LG
●connection 38LH
If the connection or connections are faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring:
Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Connector of component 1115 disconnected,
Check the insulation and continuity of connection S between components 419 and 420.
If the connection or connections are faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring:
Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Connector of component 419 connected and ignition on,
●Check for 12 V supply on connection S of component 420 in relation to earth NAM.
If the connection is faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for the
repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace the wiring.
If the supply is not present and if no faulty connections are detected during the continuity checks, contact your
Techline.
AFTER REPAIRClear the stored faults.
Follow the instructions to confirm repair.
If the motor has been replaced (see Configuration and programming).
Deal with any other faults.

NOTESConditions for running fault finding on a present or stored fault:
The fault is declared present with the air conditioning control panel on and the
distribution control activated (de-icing, ventilation, footwells, etc.).
Special notes:
Wait 1 minute after repairing the fault so that the climate control computer can control
the distribution motor. To avoid having to wait for 1 minute, switch the ignition off and
then back on again.
There is no specific programming operation for the distribution motor, however, after it
has been replaced, the motor needs to program its limits (minimum and maximum).
Use the Wiring Diagram Technical Note for the New Twingo.

To avoid having to wait for 1 minute, switch the ignition off and then back on again.
In extreme temperatures (above 35 ˚C) and when the climate control is switched on,
the recirculation flap sets itself to the recirculation position in order to correct the
passenger compartment temperature more quickly.
