a) The computer:
Determines the value of injection pressure necessary for the engine to operate correctly and then controls the
pressure regulator.
Checks that the pressure value is correct by analysing the value transmitted by the pressure sensor located on the
rail.
It determines the injection timing required to deliver the right quantity of diesel fuel and the moment when injection
should start. Controls each injector electrically and individually after determining these two values.
The flow injected into the engine is determined by:
– the duration of injector control,
– the rail pressure (regulated by the computer),
– the injector opening and closing speed,
– the needle stroke (determined by a constant for the type of injector),
– the nominal hydraulic flow of the injector (specific to each injector).
The computer manages:
– idling regulation,
– exhaust gas flow reinjection to the inlet (EGR),
– fuel supply check (advance, flow and rail pressure),
– the fan assembly control,
– the air conditioning (cold loop function),
– the cruise control/speed limiter function,
– pre-post heating control,
– indicator lights control via the multiplex network,
– the operation of the catalysed particle filter.
The high pressure pump is supplied at low pressure by an integrated low pressure pump (transfer pump).
It supplies the rail, the pressure of which is controlled by the fuel flow actuator (MPROP) for charging, and for
discharging by the injector valves. This compensates for pressure drops. The flow actuator allows the high pressure
pump to supply the exact quantity of diesel fuel required to maintain the pressure in the rail. This component
minimises the heat generated and improves engine output.
In order to discharge the rail using the injector valves, the valves are controlled by brief electrical pulses which are:
– short enough not to open the injector (passing through the feedback circuit from the injectors),
– long enough to open the valves and discharge the rail.

c) Functions hosted:
Air conditioning management assistance:
In the case of vehicles with climate control, the EDC16 system has the option of deactivating the air conditioning via
the UCH, under certain conditions of use:
– when requested by the driver,
– when starting the engine,
– if the engine overheats (in order to reduce the power the engine has to supply),
– when the engine speed is kept at a very high level (to protect the compressor),
– during transition phases (e.g. high acceleration demand for overtaking, anti-stalling and moving off). These
conditions are only taken into account if they do not occur repeatedly, so as to prevent system instabilities
(erratic deactivation),
– when certain faults appear.
Cold loop air conditioning management (Mégane II only):
The air conditioning is the cold loop type and its management shared between several computers.
The injection computer is responsible for:
– authorising cold requests according to the refrigerant pressure, the engine coolant temperature and the engine
speed,
– calculating the power absorbed by the compressor (from the refrigerant pressure),
– requesting operation of the GMV, from the UPC, according to the vehicle speed, the refrigerant pressure and the
engine coolant temperature.
The driver requests the air conditioning to be switched on by means of the ventilation selector coupled to a switch.
The cold air request is authorised or denied depending on the pressure measured. If this pressure is outside the
operating limits, the cold loop program is not activated.
Management of the damper valve:
The damper valve has three functions:
– the valve closes in order to block the passage of air towards the cylinders to shut off the engine. The aim of this is
to stop the engine as quickly as possible and to reduce instabilities as the engine is switched off.
– a "valving" function depending on the various engine functions: the damper valve closes by a few % in order to
create a venturi effect in the EGR valve flow section.
The aim of this is to accelerate the EGR gas flow rate and to reduce the emission of pollutants.
– regulatory function during the regeneration of the particle filter.
Thermoplunger management (only for Vdiag 58, 5C,18, 1C and 20):
This vehicle is fitted with thermoplungers. They are managed and activated by the injection system.
See configuration reading LC056 Thermoplungers: WITH or WITHOUT.
When necessary, the thermoplungers are actuated by the injection system only during particle filter
regeneration by means of a specific unit.
The maximum number of thermoplungers that can be managed is four; their activation depends mainly on the
coolant temperature (< 15°C) and air temperature (< 5°C).

Fault finding – Replacement of components
COMPUTER REPLACEMENT OR REPROGRAMMING
Two operations must be performed when replacing or reprogramming the computer:
SC003 Save computer data and SC001 Enter saved data.
– Run command SC003 Save computer data before replacing or reprogramming the computer. This enables
certain data to be saved in the diagnostic tool so that the new computer* can be reconfigured like the old one.
The saved data includes: injector codes, EGR programming, specific data for particle filter operation and vehicle
options.
– Run command SC001 Write saved data after replacing or reprogramming the computer. This command
enables the data (saved by the command SC003 Save computer data) to be rewritten in the new computer*.
If you cannot establish dialogue with the computer being replaced: you will not be able to save anything.
After replacing the computer:
– Manually enter the IMA codes for each injector by reading the code on each injector (see 13B, Diesel injection,
Replacement of components, Injector replacement).
– Enter the data specific to particle filter operation by running SC036 Reinitialise programming and select After
replacing the injection computer with no save option.
Exhaust gas recirculation valve data is programmed automatically the 1st time the new computer is switched on*.
* New computer or reprogrammed computer.
Specific to the cruise control/speed limiter operation to be carried out before reprogramming of the
computer:
Before reprogramming the injection computer, move the main cruise control/speed limiter switch to the rest
position. The information about the cruise control or the speed limiter displayed on the instrument panel
disappears.
Otherwise, if the main switch remains in the cruise control or speed limiter position during and after reprogramming,
the Cruise control/Speed limiter function will not be operational.
The procedure for resetting the function is as follows:
– Vehicle ignition on.
– Position the cruise control/speed limiter switch in the rest position (the computer then detects the rest position).
– Position the cruise control/speed limiter switch in the Cruise control position to activate the Cruise control
function.
– Position the cruise control/speed limiter switch in the Speed limiter position to activate the Speed limiter function. IMPORTANT
– Switch on the diagnostic tool (mains or cigarette lighter supply).
– Connect a battery charger.
– Cut off all the electrical consumers (lights, interior lighting, air conditioning, radio CD, etc.).
– Wait for the engine to cool (engine coolant temperature < 60° and air temperature < 50°).
– For Vdiags 50, 58, 5C, during (re)programming of the computer, the engine fan assemblies are actuated
automatically.
– For Vdiags 18, 1C, 20, during (re)programming of the computer, the instrument panel screen displays
“Oil pressure fault”.
– Ignore this message and do not take any action in connection with it.
