Clutch pedal switch:
The clutch pedal switch informs the computer of the pedal status.
Heater plugs:
The heater plugs preheat the combustion chamber so that the mixture detonation takes place under the best
conditions and thus start the engine.
Injector rail:
The injector rail receives and redistributes the fuel under high pressure to the injectors.
The richness ratio sensor:
The function of the proportional mixture sensor is to reset the injection system drift.
The turbocharger cooling pump:
This pump circulates the coolant to reduce the temperature of the turbocharger.
Particle filter downstream temperature sensor:
This sensor informs the computer of the temperature of the exhaust gases at the particle filter outlet (only on certain
engine types F9Q816 in Vdiag 48).
Particle filter upstream temperature sensor:
This sensor informs the computer of the temperature of the exhaust gases at the particle filter inlet (only engine
typeF9Q816).
Particle filter differential pressure sensor:
A differential pressure sensor monitors the status of the particle filter (particle weight) and triggers regeneration.
Role: To calculate the difference in pressure between the particle filter inlet and outlet (only engine type F9Q816).

Fault finding – Features13B
EDC16 C36
Program No.: 91
Vdiag No.: 44, 4C, 48,
50, 54, 58
Orange pre-postheating warning light
This warning light is used as an in-operation indicator lamp:
– Continuously lit under + after ignition feed: indicates preheating of the heater plugs.
It goes out when preheating is complete and the engine is able to start.
Orange "SERVICE" non-critical fault warning light (level 1)
This warning light is used to indicate a fault in the system:
– Continuously lit with the CHECK INJECTION message:
Indicates a level 1 fault (involving operation of the injection system in defect mode).
The driver should have the repairs carried out as soon as possible.
Temperature/red emergency STOP (level 2) warning light
This indicator light is used both as an in-operation indicator light and as a system fault warning light.
– Intermittently lit with the ENGINE OVERHEATING message:
Indicates that the coolant temperature is too high (the driver is free to stop the vehicle or not).
– Continuously lit with the INJECTION FAULT: STOP THE ENGINE message and an audible beep indicates a level
2 fault.
In that case, the vehicle must be stopped immediately (when traffic conditions allow).
The driver should carry out repairs as soon as possible.
European On Board Diagnostic excess pollution ORANGE warning light
Engine symbol with the CHECK EMISSION CONTROL message.
This warning light comes on if the system has one or more OBD faults.
This warning light is used to alert the driver to injection faults that could lead to excessive pollution, or if the EOBD
system (European On Board Diagnostic) has been deactivated.
The injection computer requests illumination of the OBD warning light for a present fault only after three successive
driving cycles.
The driver should have the repairs carried out as soon as possible.

1.DEF: Faulty heater plug(s) or open circuit on the preheating unit return line to the
computer
NOTESPriorities when dealing with a number of faults:
Deal with fault DF017 Preheating control circuit first, if it is present or stored.
Conditions for applying the fault finding procedure to stored faults:
The fault is declared present after:
– when the ignition is switched on, during the preheating phase,
– engine running in postheating phase,
– controlling the heater plugs using command AC037 Preheating relay.
Special notes:
If the fault is present:
Use bornier Elé. 1681 for all operations on the connectors of the engine management
computer.
–The European On Board Diagnostic injection warning light is lit.
– Difficult to start the engine.
– Refer to the Wiring Diagram Technical Notes for the vehicle to locate the fuses and
relays concerned.
IMPORTANT
Please observe the cleanliness guidelines and safety advice.
Use Wiring Diagram Technical Note, Mégane II ph2, Scénic II ph2.
