→Or using a voltmeter:
Connect the voltmeter earth lead to connection 3FB (Laguna II and Mégane II) or 3FB1 (Scénic II) of
component 1475 and the positive lead to connection 3MG.
Clear any solenoid valve fault then run command AC004:
The voltmeter should display ten cycles of two successive voltages ~ = battery voltage X current OCR*.
Either: ~ 2.5 V (OCR* of 20%) then ~ 8.7 V (OCR* of 70%).
→Or using an oscilloscope (range 5 V/division and time base 1 ms/division):
