To cut off + after ignition feed, proceed as follows:
Faults
Faults are declared present or stored (depending on whether they appeared in a certain context and have
disappeared since, or whether they remain present but are not diagnosed within the current context).
The present or stored status of faults should be taken into consideration when using the diagnostic tool after
switching on the + after ignition feed (without any system components being active).
For a present fault, apply the procedure described in the Interpretation of faults section.
For a stored fault, note the faults displayed and apply the Notes section.
If the fault is confirmed when the instructions are applied, the fault is present. Deal with the fault.
If the fault is not confirmed, check:
–the electrical connections that correspond to the fault,
–the connectors for this connection,
–the resistance of the component detected as defective,
–the condition of the wires.
Refer to paragraphs 4.1 Checking wiring and 4.2 Checking connectors
Conformity check
The aim of the conformity check is to check data that does not produce a fault on the diagnostic tool because
the data is inconsistent. Therefore, this stage is used to:
–carry out fault finding on faults that do not have a fault display, and which may correspond to a customer complaint.
–check that the system is operating correctly and that there is no risk of a fault recurring after repairs.
This section gives the fault finding procedures for statuses and parameters and the conditions for checking them.
If a status is not behaving normally or a parameter is outside the permitted tolerance values, consult
the corresponding fault finding page.
Customer complaints - Fault finding chart
If the test with the diagnostic tool is OK but the customer complaint is still present, the fault should be processed by
customer complaints. Note:
the left and right-hand xenon bulb computers are powered when the dipped headlights are lit.
Therefore fault finding can only be carried out on them after the ignition has been switched on in fault finding mode
(forced + after ignition feed) and the dipped headlights have been switched on.
For vehicles with a radio frequency remote control - key, use the key to switch off the ignition.
For vehicles with a Renault card,
press the Start button twice briefly (less than 3 seconds),
check that the forced + after ignition feed has been cut off by checking that the computer warning lights on
the instrument panel have extinguished.
A synopsis of the general procedure to follow is provided on the following page in the form of a flow chart.

4. FAULT FINDING PROCEDURE (continued)
4.1 Wiring check
Fault finding problems
Disconnecting the connectors and/or handling the wiring harness may temporarily remove, the cause of a fault.
Visual inspection
Look for damage under the bonnet and in the passenger compartment.
Carefully check the protectors, insulation, and routing of the wiring, as well as the mountings.
Physical inspection
While manipulating the wiring, use either the diagnostic tool to detect a change in status from "stored" to "present",
or use the multimeter to view the status changes.
Make sure that the connectors are properly locked.
Apply light pressure to the connectors.
Twist the wiring harness.
Checking earth insulation
This check is carried out by measuring the voltage (multimeter in voltmeter mode) between the suspect connection
and the 12 V or 5 V. The correct measured value is 0 V.
Checking insulation against + 12 V or + 5 V
This check is carried out by measuring the voltage (multimeter in voltmeter mode) between the suspect connection
and the earth. In the first instance, the earth may be taken on the chassis. The correct measured value should
be 0 V.
Continuity check
A continuity check is carried out by measuring the resistance (multimeter in ohmmeter mode), with the connectors
disconnected at both ends. The expected result is: 1 Ω ± 1 Ω for each connection. The line must be fully checked,
and the intermediate connections are only included in the method if this saves time during the fault finding
procedure. The continuity check on the multiplex lines must be carried out on both wires. The measured value
should be 1 Ω ± 1 Ω
Checking the supply
This check may be carried out using a test light (21 W or 5 W depending on the maximum authorised load).

4.2 Connector check
1. Visual inspection of the connection:
–Check that the connector is connected correctly and that the male and female parts of the connection are
correctly coupled.
2. Visual inspection of the area around the connection:
–Check the condition of the mounting (pin, strap, adhesive tape, etc.) if the connectors are attached to
the vehicle.
–Check that there is no damage to the wiring trim (sheath, foam, adhesive tape, etc.) near the wiring.
–Check that there is no damage to the electrical wires at the connector outputs, in particular on the insulating
material (wear, cuts, burns, etc.).
Disconnect the connector to continue the checks.
3. Visual inspection of the plastic casing:
–Check that there is no mechanical damage (casing crushed, split, broken, etc.), in particular to the fragile
components (lever, lock, sockets, etc.).
–Check that there is no heat damage (casing melted, darker, deformed, etc.).
–Check that there are no stains (grease, mud, liquid, etc.).
4. Visual inspection of the metal contacts:
(The female contact is called CLIP. The male contact is called TAB.)
–Check that there are no bent contacts (the contact is not inserted correctly and can come out of the back of
the connector). The spring contact of the connector when the wire is pulled slightly.
–Check that there is no damage (folded tabs, clips open too wide, blackened or melted contact, etc.).
–Check that there is no oxidation on the metal contacts.
5. Visual inspection of the sealing:
(Only for watertight connectors)
–Check for the seal on the connection (between the 2 parts of the connection).
–Check the seal at the back of the connectors:
–For unit seals (1 for each wire), check that the unit seals are present on each electrical wire and that they are
correctly positioned in the opening (level with the housing). Check that plugs are present on openings which
are not used.
–For a grommet seal (one seal which covers the entire internal surface of the connector), check that the seal is
present.
–For gel seals, check for gel in all of the sockets without removing the excess or any protruding sections (it does
not matter if there is gel on the contacts).
–For hotmelt sealing (heat-shrink sheath with glue), check that the sheath has contracted correctly on the rear
of the connectors and the electrical wires, and that the hardened glue comes out of the side of the wire.
–Check that there is no damage to any of the seals (cuts, burns, significant deformation, etc.).
If a fault is detected, consult Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring. Note:
Carry out each requested check visually. Do not remove a connector if it is not required.
Note:
Repeated connections and disconnections alter the functionality of the connectors and increase the risk of poor
electrical contact. Limit the number of connections/disconnections as much as possible.
Note:
The check is carried out on the 2 parts of the connection. There may be 2 types of connections:
–Connector/Connector.
–Connector/Device.

AFTER REPAIRDeal with any faults displayed by the diagnostic tool.
Clear the computer fault memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.
