1. SCOPE OF THIS DOCUMENT
This document presents the fault finding procedure applicable to all computers with the following specifications:
2. PREREQUISITES FOR FAULT FINDING
Documentation type
Fault finding procedures (this document):
– Assisted fault finding (integrated into the diagnostic tool), Dialogys.
Wiring Diagrams:
– Visu-Schéma (CD-ROM), paper.
Type of diagnostic tools
–CLIP
Special tooling required
3. REMINDERS
Procedure
To save energy, the vehicle's UCH interrupts the + after ignition feed after 3 minutes.
To run fault finding on a computer, it is possible to force the + after ignition feed for 1 hour by applying the following
procedure:
– press the unlocking button on the card,
– insert the card in the reader,
– press the start button (interrupting the timed + after ignition feed mode),
– press the start button for more than 5 seconds, without conditions for starting being met, until the immobiliser
warning light flashes rapidly (4 Hz).
This forced + after ignition feed mode is active for 1 hour.
Pressing the start button or removing the card from the card reader interrupts the forced + after ignition feed, but
does not interrupt the time period for the forced + after ignition feed. Until one hour has elapsed, activating the +
after ignition feed will restart forced + after ignition feed for the remaining time. Vehicle(s): MEGANE II phase 2, SCENIC II

4.1 Connector check
1. Visual inspection of the connection:
– Check that the connector is connected correctly and that the male and female parts of the connection are correctly
coupled.
2. Visual inspection of the area around the connection:
– Check the condition of the mounting (pin, strap, adhesive tape, etc.) if the connectors are attached to the vehicle.
– Check that there is no damage to the wiring trim (sheath, foam, adhesive tape, etc.) near the wiring.
– Check that there is no damage to the electrical wires at the connector outputs, in particular on the insulating material
(wear, cuts, burns, etc.).
Disconnect the connector to continue the checks.
3. Visual inspection of the plastic casing:
– Check that there is no mechanical damage (casing crushed, cracked, broken, etc.), in particular to the fragile
components (lever, lock, terminal locations, etc.).
– Check that there is no heat damage (casing melted, blackened, deformed, etc.).
– Check that there are is no dirt (grease, mud, liquid, etc.).
4. Visual inspection of the metal contacts:
(The female contact is called CLIP. The male contact is called a TAB).
– Check that there are no bent contacts (the contact is not inserted correctly and can come out of the back of the
connector). The spring contact of the connector when the wire is pulled slightly.
– Check that there is no damage (tabs bent, clips open too wide, blackened or melted, etc.).
– Check that there is no oxidation on the metal contacts. Note:
Carry out each requested check visually. Do not remove a connector if it is not required.
Note:
Repeated connections and disconnections alter the functionality of the connectors and increase the risk of a poor
electrical contact. Restrict the number of connections/disconnections as far as possible.
Note:
The check is carried out on the 2 parts of the connection. There may be 2 types of connections:
– Connector/Connector.
– Connector/Device.

b. The connections between the vehicle's various computers are multiplexed.
The electronic system fitted in this vehicle is multiplexed.
It enables dialogue between the various vehicle computers. As a result:
– the fault warning lights on the instrument panel are lit by the multiplex network,
– vehicle faults are displayed by the multiplex network,
– the vehicle speed sensor on the gearbox is not needed.
The vehicle speed signal on the instrument panel is sent by the ABS computer via the multiplex network. The vehicle
speed signal is mainly used by the injection computer, the airbag computer and the automatic transmission
computer (if the vehicle is fitted with this).
c. Functions hosted:
Air conditioning management assistance:
For vehicles with air conditioning, the EDC16C36 system provides 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. under heavy acceleration when overtaking, anti-stalling and moving off strategies).
These conditions are only taken into account when they do not occur repeatedly, in order to prevent system
instabilities (erratic deactivations), when certain faults appear.
Management of the damper valve:
The damper valve currently 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.
– “valving” function depending on the engine operation: the damper valve closes by a few % to create a “'venturi”'
effect at the EGR valve passage section.
The aim of this is to accelerate the air flow of EGR gases and to reduce the emission of pollutants.
Thermoplunger management (only on certain F9Q816 engines in VDiag 48):
This vehicle is fitted with thermoplungers. They are managed and activated by the injection system.
There are two types of program:
– controlled by the injection system during particle filter regeneration,
– passenger compartment function; the air conditioning requests the injection to activate one or more thermoplungers
to raise the air temperature in the passenger compartment. The injection computer authorises the actuation or non-
actuation of the thermoplungers according to the operating phases and the power requirements of the engine.
The maximum number of thermoplungers that can be actuated is four. Their actuation depends mainly on the
coolant temperature (< 15°C) and the air temperature (< 5°C).

NOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to a stored fault:
The fault is declared present after a road test.
Special notes:
– engine torque limited,
– the cruise control/speed limiter function is inhibited,
The vehicle speed signal sent by the ABS computer to the injection computer is greater
than the threshold defined in the calibration.
Use bornier Elé.1681 for any operations on the injection computer connectors.
Check the condition of the ABS computer connector (see Wiring Diagram Technical Note, Mégane II ph2,
Scénic II ph2, component Code 118 or 1094).
Check the condition of the engine management computer connector (see Wiring Diagram Technical Note,
Mégane II ph2, Scénic II ph2, component code 120).
If the connector or connectors are faulty and if there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing
electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the connector, otherwise replace the wiring.
Run full fault finding on the ABS (see 38C Anti-lock braking system).
Repair if necessary.

Check for + 12 V after ignition feed on the connections of the brake pedal switch connector and the
condition of the fuse.

– Connection code SP13 of component 160.
Disconnect the ABS - ESP and check the continuity and insulation against + 12 V and against earth
of the following connection:
– Connection code 65A between components 160 and 1094.
Check that the brake pedal switch is working correctly:
in rest position: infinite resistance continuity between the following connections:
– Connection code 65A of component 160.
– Connection code AP10 of component 160.
depressed: continuity between the following connections:
– Connection code 65A of component 160.
– Connection code AP10 of component 160.
