Adaptive idling speed correction:
Under normal warm operating conditions, the idling speed opening cycle ratio value PR091 Idling speed regulation
theoretical OCR varies between a high value and a low value to obtain the nominal idling speed.
After operating dispersion (running in, engine fouling, etc.), the opening cycle ratio value may be close to the high or
low values.
The adaptive correction PR090 Idling speed regulation programming value on the idling speed opening cycle
ratio compensates for the gradual variations in the engine's air requirement, by bringing the idling speed opening
cycle ratio back to an average nominal value.
This adjustment only takes effect if the coolant temperature is above 75 °C, 1 minute after starting the engine and
during the idle speed regulation phase.
Idling speed setpoint calculation:
The idling speed setpoint is given by parameter PR010 Idle speed regulation valve setpoint.
The idling speed regulation setpoint depends on the coolant temperature, the depollution programming, the climate
control requirements, the position of the gearbox selector, any power assisted steering action, the passenger
compartment heating resistors, the oil temperature (engine protection) and the electricity balance calculated by the
injection software (the engine speed is increased by 160 rpm maximum if the battery voltage remains below 12.7 V).
Richness management
For optimal operation of the catalytic converter, the richness must be maintained around 1.
Richness regulation is controlled by the upstream sensor. The sensor gives voltage according to the difference
between the partial oxygen pressures contained in the exhaust and a cavity filled with a reference mixture
(atmosphere).
As the partial oxygen pressure in the exhaust is representative of the richness, the voltage supplied to the computer
represents a Rich - Lean signal.
Adaptive richness correction:
In loop mode, the richness regulation corrects the injection duration in order to obtain a mixture which is as close as
possible to a richness of 1. The richness correction value PR138 Richness correction is close to 50 %, with limits
of 0 and 100 %.
The richness adaptive corrections PR143 Self-adapting richness gain and PR144 Self-adapting richness offset
are used to offset the injection mapping to centre richness regulation on 50 %.
Adaptive corrections take 50 % as an average value after computer initialisation (clearing the programming) and have
the following limit values:

3. OBD management
Managed OBD programming is as follows:
– catalytic converter operational fault finding,
– upstream oxygen sensor operational fault finding,
– misfiring fault finding with two levels of detection: pollutant misfiring and catalytic converter breakage
misfiring,
– fuel supply system fault finding.
The misfiring and fuel supply system fault finding is performed continuously.
The operational fault finding for the upstream sensor and the catalytic converter can be only be carried out once per
journey, and can never occur at the same time.
OBD fault manager:
The OBD faults manager does not replace or modify conventional electrical fault management. Perform to comply
with OBD standard.
The requirements are:
●storing OBD faults,
●illuminate the OBD warning light for all faults where the OBD emission thresholds are exceeded,
●flash the OBD warning light for misfire faults damaging the catalytic converter.
Operating principle.
If a fault is detected and confirmed during 3 consecutive journeys then:
●an OBD stored fault is raised,
●the OBD fault warning light receives a request to be lit continuously. This request is only recognised if the
fault in question is authorised to activate the OBD warning light.
To deactivate the warning light, no OBD faults should be detected for 3 consecutive journeys.
The electrical fault finding checks taken into consideration by the OBD faults manager are as follows:
– pressure,
– turbocharging pressure,
– coolant temperature,
– air temperature
– upstream sensor,
– downstream sensor,
– upstream sensor heating,
– downstream sensor heating,
–injector1,
–injector2,
–injector3,
–injector4,– ignition coil 1,
– ignition coil 2,
– ignition coil 3,
– ignition coil 4,
– petrol pump,
– wastegate,
– canister bleed,
– air line system,
– turbocharging system
– pinking sensor,
– camshaft dephaser.

Catalytic converter:
Purpose
Catalytic converter fault finding should detect a malfunction which would cause hydrocarbon pollutant emissions to
exceed the EOBD (European On Board Diagnostic) limit.
Principle
The ability of the catalytic converter to store oxygen indicates the condition of the catalytic converter. As the
catalytic converter ages, its ability to store oxygen reduces along with its ability to treat pollutants. The principle lies
in using the correlation between the oxygen storage capacity and the HC emissions.
When the conditions for starting fault finding are confirmed, richness excitation peaks are applied, which has the effect
of sending bursts of oxygen into the catalytic converter.
If the catalytic converter is in good condition it will absorb the oxygen sent to it and the downstream sensor voltage
will remain at its average value.
If it is damaged, it rejects the oxygen that it cannot store and the downstream sensor starts knocking. The more the
catalytic converter is damaged, the more the downstream oxygen sensor will oscillate.
Sensors:
Purpose
Sensor fault finding should detect a malfunction which would cause pollutant emissions to exceed the EOBD
(European On Board Diagnostic) limit.
There are 2 kinds of oxygen sensor damage:
●mechanical damage to the component (breakage, cut in wire) which leads to an electrical fault,
●chemical or thermal damage to the component leading to a slower response time of the sensor and to the
increase in the average reaction time.
Description of programming
When the conditions for starting fault finding are confirmed, the upstream sensor signal periods are read and the
glitches (interference phenomena) removed, then the average taken, and compared with an EOBD (European On
Board Diagnostic) limit average period.
The fault finding check may be staggered, i.e. divided over several consecutive engine stability phases, and its
duration will vary according to the condition of the sensor.

Camshaft dephaser:
The camshaft dephaser ET083 Camshaft dephaser in defect mode may assume two different statuses.
●Status 1
This defect mode covers all faults that affect the dephaser position measurement. The dephaser is set to the
minimum stop and the camshaft angle measurement is forced to 0.
Tooth signal fault.
Tooth/camshaft signal consistency diagnostic.
●Status 2
This defect mode covers all faults affecting the dephaser (pulley and solenoid valve). The dephaser is set to
the minimum stop.
Electrical fault finding on the solenoid valve.
Dephaser position fault finding procedure.
7. Operational safety
Warning lights illumination
The S3000 Injection system manages the illumination of three warning lights and the display of warning messages
according to the severity of the faults detected, with the aim of informing the customer and guiding fault finding.
The injection computer manages the illumination of warning lights and warning messages displayed 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 illumination signals reach the instrument panel via the multiplex network.
Warning light illumination principle
During the starting phase (START button pressed) the OBD (On Board Diagnostic) warning light comes on for
approximately 3 seconds then goes out.
If there is an injection fault (level 1), the message CHECK INJECTION is lit, followed by the SERVICE warning light.
It indicates a reduced level of operation and a limited safety level.
The driver should carry out repairs as soon as possible.
Components involved:
– motorised throttle valve,
– accelerator pedal potentiometer,
– inlet manifold pressure sensor,
– computer,
– actuator feed,
– computer feed.
If there is a serious injection fault (level 2), the red engine symbol and the word STOP (display with information
display only), appears with the message ENGINE OVERHEATING followed by the STOP warning light and a
buzzer. If this happens, the vehicle must be stopped immediately.
When a fault causing excessive pollution in the exhaust gases is detected, the orange OBD warning light engine
symbol is lit:
–flashing in the event of a fault which might cause destruction of the catalytic converter (destructive misfires). If this
happens, the vehicle must be stopped immediately.
–constantly in the case of non-compliance with the anti-pollution standards (polluting misfires, catalytic converter
fault, oxygen sensor faults, inconsistency between the oxygen sensors and canister fault).
