SYNCHRONISATION
NOTESOnly perform the tests if the statuses do not correspond with the system programming
functions.
WARNING
Synchronisation is carried out during the engine starting phase. This is established between the camshaft
position sensor and the TDC sensor.
Once this synchronisation has been carried out, it enables the computer to identify cylinder no.1 and to
ascertain the precise position of the cylinder's top dead centre.
INACTIVE
COMPLETED
When the engine is stopped but the ignition switched on, cylinder no. 1 is no longer
indicated.
Status ET238 is INACTIVE, no synchronisation between the crankshaft and the
camshaft is performed.
Synchronisation is carried out during the engine starting phase.
Cylinder No. 1 is indicated and synchronisation will be performed once the engine is
started.
Status ET238 is "COMPLETED".
If after several attempts to start the engine status ET238 remains INACTIVE, refer to the
interpretation of the following faults:
–DF005 Engine speed sensor circuit
–DF097 Camshaft sensor circuit
If the engine still does not start, (see Customer complaints, ALP2 Starting faults).
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.

(CONTINUED 1)
STATUS 2Brake pedal depressed
The cruise control function is deactivated when the brake pedal is depressed.
Status ET415 becomes STATUS 2, when driving with the cruise control active (ET042
Cruise control/Speed limiter: CRUISE CONTROL) and the brake pedal is depressed.
This deactivates cruise control.
Reinitialise status ET415 on the injection computer by running command RZ001
Fault memory.
If status ET415 becomes STATUS 2 with no application of the brake pedal, consult the
interpretation of statuses ET704 and ET705 Brake contact no. 1 and no. 2.
STATUS 3Clutch pedal depressed
Manual gearbox ONLY
The cruise control function is deactivated when the gearbox is not coupled to the engine
(clutch pedal depressed).
Status ET415 becomes STATUS 3 when driving with the cruise control active (ET042
Cruise control/speed limiter: CRUISE CONTROL) and the clutch pedal is depressed.
This deactivates cruise control.
Reinitialise status ET415 on the injection computer by running command RZ001
Fault memory.
If status ET415 becomes STATUS 3 without the clutch pedal being depressed, consult
the interpretation of status ET405 Clutch pedal switch.
If the vehicle is fitted with automatic transmission:
Carry out a multiplex network test, check the configuration of the multiplex network
according to the vehicle's technical specifications and, in particular, the automatic
gearbox computer configuration (see 88B, multiplex).

STATUS 4Cancel button pressed
The cruise control/speed limiter function is deactivated whenever the suspend button is
pressed.
Status ET415 becomes STATUS 4, when driving when:
- Either the cruise control is active.
- The speed limiter is active,
- and the driver presses the 0 button.
This action deactivates the Cruise control/Speed limiter.
Reinitialise status ET415 on the injection computer by running command RZ001
Fault memory.
If status ET415 becomes STATUS 4 without pressing the 0 button, consult the
interpretation of status ET703 Cruise control/speed limiter buttons and run fault
finding on the R/0 control button located on the right-hand side of the steering wheel.
STATUS 5Cruise control or speed limiter monitoring
This status appears when the vehicle brakes or decelerates sharply without the injection
computer receiving a signal that the brake pedal switch has been pressed.
If status ET415 is STATUS 5, refer to the interpretation:
- of status ET042 Cruise control / speed limiter,
- of status ET703 Cruise control / speed limiter buttons,
- of status ET704 Brake switch no. 1,
- of status ET705 Brake switch no. 2,
to test the cruise control/speed limiter system components and find the defective
component.
Also check the operation of the accelerator pedal, and check with the diagnostic tool for
a fault connected with this component. Deal with them if necessary.
Reinitialise status ET415 on the injection computer by running command RZ001
Fault memory.
If status ET415 changes to STATUS 5, deal with present faults or those stored in the
injection computer.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRDeal with any other faults. Clear the fault memory.
Switch off the ignition and carry out a road test followed by a test with the diagnostic

STATUS 6Gear lever in neutral (manual gearbox) or the neutral position (automatic gearbox)
Status ET415 becomes STATUS 6 when driving with the cruise control active (ET042
Cruise control/speed limiter: CRUISE CONTROL) and:
- If the driver puts the gear lever in neutral position on a manual gearbox without
declutching or,
- if the gear lever is in neutral on an automatic gearbox.
This deactivates cruise control.
Reinitialise status ET415 on the injection computer by running command RZ001
Fault memory.
If status ET415 becomes STATUS 6 without shifting the gear lever into neutral on a
manual gearbox without declutching, or into neutral on an automatic transmission, run
fault finding on the ABS computer and check the configuration of the tyre size stored in
the computer. If the configuration is correct, contact the Techline.
STATUS 7Lack of correlation between the request and the vehicle speed
Status ET415 becomes STATUS 7 if the computer detects too great a difference
between the speed requested by the driver and the vehicle speed.
STATUS 7 may occur when driving with the cruise control active (ET042 Cruise control/
speed limiter: CRUISE CONTROL) and on a very uneven surface.
This inconsistency deactivates cruise control.
Reinitialise status ET415 on the injection computer by running command RZ001
Fault memory.
If status ET415 becomes STATUS 7 where the surface is not uneven, contact the
Techline.
AFTER REPAIRDeal with any other faults. Clear the fault memory.
