SC035HIGH PRESSURE FUEL CIRCUIT FAULT FINDING
NOTESThis command is used to interpret the state of the high pressure fuel circuit (high
pressure pump, rail, injectors and high pressure supply pipes).
To run this command, select scenario SC035 on the diagnostic tool.
Procedure to be followed:
– select scenario SC035 High pressure fuel circuit fault finding,
– follow the instructions then “confirm”,
– with the command in progress: do not operate on the vehicle,
– switch off the engine at the end of the test,
– the tool displays the results,
– end of test.
Interpretation of correct results:
– If the results displayed are OK, the entire high pressure fuel circuit is in order. There is no need for any operation.

In the event of rail overpressure:
Check that there are no air bubbles in the diesel fuel low pressure circuit.
Check that the rail pressure sensor is operating correctly.
Consult the interpretation of parameter PR038 Rail pressure.
If these checks reveal no irregularities, replace the regulator.
in the event of rail underpressure:
Check that the rail pressure sensor is operating correctly.
Consult the interpretation of parameter PR038 Rail pressure.
Check the low pressure diesel circuit priming.
Check the conformity of the diesel filter connections.
Check the condition of the filter (clogging and water saturation).
Check that there are no air bubbles between the filter and the high pressure pump.
Check the sealing of the low and high pressure diesel fuel systems: use ALP6 Fuel circuit leaks (visual
inspections, touch tests, odours, etc.) on:
pump body, pressure release valve, pipes, rail and injectors unions, injector wells, etc.
Check the conformity of the seal fitting on the pressure regulator.
Check the operation of the injectors, run Test 10 Poor injector operation.
Carry out the necessary repairs.
If the engine starts:
Clear any faults.
Check the pressure regulator by applying (see ALP7 Rough idle).
With the engine warm, leave it to idle for a few minutes (3 to 5 minutes):
– If it stalls and the fault reappears, replace the regulator.
– If it does not stall, stabilise the engine speed at 2000 rpm(1 minute) then accelerate at full load until it cuts out.
If the engine stalls, contact the Techline
If the engine does not startor there is no timing:
first, replace the regulator and if the fault is still present, contact the Techline.

ALP2 Starting difficult (or impossible)
NOTESBefore analysing this customer complaint, check that there are no faults, and the
conformity (or otherwise) of the parameters and statuses, using the diagnostic
tool.
If the customer complaint is not eliminated, perform the following checks.
Is it difficult or impossible to start the engine?
PART A:
Check the engine earths.
If the engine speed is less than 200 rpm, refer to Technical Note 6014A, Checking the charging circuit, Starter
fault finding, Starter.
If an engine speed of 200 rpm is achieved with starter motor in operation, PR055 Engine speed.
If the engine speed shown on CLIP is zero and the engine is running, check the resistance of the engine speed
sensor between the following connections:
– Connection code 3BG,
– Connection code 3BL,
of component 149.
Replace the sensor if the resistance is not between 200 Ω and 270 Ω at 20°C.
Check the continuity and insulation of the following connections:
– Connection code 3BG,
– Connection code 3BL,
between components 120 and 149.
If any of the connections are faulty and there is a repair method (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring
repair, Wiring: precautions for repairs), repair the wiring; otherwise replace the wiring.
Check the conformity of the engine earths (oxidation, tightness, etc.).
Check the mounting and condition (overheating) of the sensor.
Replace if necessary.
Check the synchronisation of the camshaft sensors and the engine speed sensors with the display of ET238
Synchronisation. If synchronisation is not active, refer to the checks described in DF195 Camshaft/engine
speed consistency.
Check the fuel circuit for leaks using test 3 Low pressure circuit check.
If test 3: Low pressure circuit check is correct.

NOTESBefore analysing this customer complaint, check that there are no faults, and the
conformity (or otherwise) of the parameters and statuses, using the diagnostic
tool.
If the customer complaint is not eliminated, perform the following checks.
IMPORTANT
In the case of engine overheating to above 118°C, the computer deliberately limits the fuel flow (overheating
warning light lights up from 115°C).
Please observe the cleanliness guidelines and safety advice.
Is the poor performance accompanied by smoke?
Check the conformity of the fuel used by running test 11 Diesel fuel conformity check.
If the diesel fuel is not correct:
– Replace the diesel fuel.
– Change the diesel filter.
– Bleed the low and high pressure diesel circuit.
Test the high pressure fuel circuit:
Run the scenario SC035 High pressure fuel circuit fault finding (see Interpretation of commands).
Check that the injectors are correctly fitted (presence and conformity of the sealing washer).
Checking procedure:
– Take a straightedge approximately 40 cm long and place it on the 4 injectors. The straightedge should rest on
the 4 injectors.
– If 1 injector protrudes, remove the injector and check that the washer is correct.
– If one injector does not touch the straightedge (clearance of more than 1 mm), remove the injector and check
that the washer is present.
– Clean the injector wells and the injector, refit the injector with the correct sealing washer.
– The tightness seal and the condition of the inlet circuit: run test 4: Turbocharged air inlet circuit check.
– The condition of the air flowmeter, run test 5 Air flowmeter.
– The turbocharger, run the following tests:
– test 2: Air path at the turbocharger,
– test 6: Turbocharger control solenoid valve check,
