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 fault status must be considered, when the diagnostic tool is used after switching on the +
after ignition feed (without operating the system components).
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 lines which correspond to the fault,
– the connectors for this connection,
– the resistance of the faulty component,
– the condition of the wires.
Conformity check
The purpose of the conformity check is to check data that does not produce a fault on the diagnostic tool if 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 repair.
The conformity check is a fault finding procedure carried out using the interpretation of statuses and parameters.
If a status does not function normally or a parameter is outside the permitted tolerance values, consult the
corresponding fault finding page (see interpretation of statuses and parameters).
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 dealt with by
customer complaints
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)
Wiring check
Fault finding problems
Disconnecting the connectors and/or manipulating the wiring may temporarily clear 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
When working on wiring, use the diagnostic tool to highlight a change in the status of the faults, from a "stored"
fault to a "present" fault, or use the multimeter to view the status changes.
Make sure that the connectors are firmly secured.
Apply light pressure to the connectors.
Twist the wiring harness.
Checking insulation to earth
This check is carried out by measuring the voltage (multimeter in voltmeter mode) between the suspect connection
and the 12 V or 5V. The correct measured value is 0V.
Checking insulation in relation to + 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 is 0V.
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.
Power supply check
This check can be carried out using a test light (21 W or 5 W depending on the maximum permissible load).

Program No.: 91
Vdiag No.: 44, 4C, 48,
50, 54, 58
PROCEDURE:
Before replacing or reprogramming the computer:
–Select SC003 Save computer data,
– if the following message appears: a saved file exists; do you want to overwrite this data?: (this file corresponds
to the last save carried out on the tool)
–select "YES".
When the save has been performed, replace the computer or carry out the programming then proceed to the next
step.
After replacing or reprogramming the computer:
–Select SC001 Enter saved data, then follow the instructions given by the diagnostic tool,
– if the VIN is not entered (see Computer identification on the main screen),
–select VP010 Enter VIN,
When both these commands have finished:
– Switch off the ignition and wait for the diagnostic tool message (maximum time 8 minutes) Communication lost
with computer: EDC16 C36, check the tool connection and computer power supply before switching the
ignition back on.
(The powerlatch duration depends on the coolant temperature and activation time of the turbocharger
coolant pump. This operation finishes when the pump is deactivated.)
– then check the system faults, and clear any stored faults,
– if there are faults, deal with the present faults,
– clear the faults from the computer memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.
End of the procedure.IMPORTANT
– The injection computer retains the immobiliser code for life.
– The system has no security code.
– It is forbidden to perform tests with computers borrowed from the Parts Department or from another vehicle
which must then be returned.
– These computers are hard-coded.
– If the injection computer appears to be faulty, contact the Techline and refer to the fault finding log.
