For vehicles with key/radio frequency remote control, use the key to switch off the ignition.
For vehicles with a Renault card:
– press the Start button twice briefly (less than 3 seconds),
– ensure that the + after ignition feed has been cut off by checking that the computer warning lights on the
instrument panel have gone out.
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 status of faults should be considered when using the diagnostic tool after the + after ignition
feed is switched on (without any action on 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 instructions in 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 on these lines (corrosion, bent pins, etc.),
– the resistance of the faulty component,
– the condition of the wires (melted or split insulation, wear).
Conformity check
The aim of the conformity check is to check data that does not produce a fault on the diagnostic tool when 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 repairs.
This section gives the fault finding procedures for statuses and parameters and the conditions for checking them.
If a status is not behaving normally or a parameter is outside the permitted tolerance values, consult the
corresponding fault finding page.
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 processed
bycustomer complaints.
A synopsis of the general procedure to follow is provided on the following page in the
form of a flow chart.

Fault finding – Function13B
MANAGEMENT OF PRE/POSTHEATING
Pre-postheating management involves controlling the heater plugs and the heater plugs indicator light on the
instrument panel (via the multiplex network). The heater plugs are activated by a preheating unit and the power is
provided by the battery.
When the ignition is switched on, the preheating period is activated; the indicator light comes on for a period
dependent on the battery voltage, atmospheric pressure and coolant temperature.
When the coolant temperature is below a certain threshold, a postheating function enables combustion stability,
and thereby engine operation, to be improved (reduction in unburned fuel and pollutant emissions).
MANAGEMENT OF ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
Engine cooling is guaranteed by a 2-speed fan assembly (GMV) (slow: GMV1 and fast: GMV2).
The injection computer requests the UPC to actuate them via the multiplex network.
To provide cooling:
– Engine running:
GMV1 is activated when the coolant temperature exceeds 96°C and is deactivated when it drops below 94°C.
GMV2 is activated when the coolant temperature exceeds 104°C and is deactivated when it drops below 102°C.
If the engine coolant temperature exceeds the warning threshold of 120°C, the injection computer requests the
instrument panel computer, via the multiplex network, to switch on the coolant temperature warning light. The
warning stops if the coolant temperature drops below 117 ° C.
If the engine coolant temperature exceeds the threshold of 11 5 ° C, the injection computer requests the UPC
computer, via the multiplex network, to switch off the air conditioning compressor so as to reduce the load on the
engine and attempt to limit its rise in temperature. The cut-off request is cancelled if the coolant temperature drops
below 110°C.
If a fault in the coolant temperature sensor circuit is detected, the injection computer requests that the coolant
temperature warning light is lit and that GMV2 is activated.
In addition to engine management, the injection computer centralises the cooling requirements for the air
conditioning and automatic gearbox/sequential gearbox functions (if fitted to the vehicle).
OTHER HOSTED FUNCTIONS
The other functions hosted by the computer are:
– Multiplex line.
– ADAC (Trip Computer).
– Trip Computer Display.
– Engine immobiliser.
– Airbag.
– Engine stop management.
– Starter management.
– Air conditioning.
– Cruise control/speed limiter.

INTERSYSTEM EXCHANGES
The inter-system connections concerning the particular requirements of engine management are as follows:
●Request for injection computer to switch on the OBD warning light to warn of an OBD related pollution fault.
●Request to switch on the Level 1 warning light to warn of an operational safety fault with the engine
management system which may restrict performance.
●Request to switch on the Level 2 warning light to warn of an operational safety fault with the engine
management system which may result in the engine stopping.
●Request to switch on the Particle Filter and Service warning light to warn of an operational safety fault of the
particle filter system which may result in reduced performance or engine stoppage.
●Request to switch on the Engine overheating warning light to warn of an engine overheating fault or a fault
in the coolant temperature sensor.
●Request to switch on the Particle filter warning light to warn the driver that the particle filter is loaded with
particles (weight of soot more than 30.8 g). As soon as possible, the driver must drive at a speed of more than
25 mph (40 km/h) for 2 minutes to activate regeneration.
The driver must maintain a speed of more than 25 mph (40 km/h) until the particle filter warning light goes out
(Vdiag 45 and 49 only).
●Request to start the fan assembly for engine cooling and also for air conditioning purposes,
●Request to switch off the air conditioning compressor for engine programming requirements such as pulling
away, performance, anti-stalling, overspeed, etc.
●Request to switch off electrical consumers (passenger compartment heating resistor (if fitted), heated rear
screen, etc.) for engine operation purposes such as: pulling away, performance, anti-stalling,
overspeed, etc.
●Formulation of requests to engage electrical consumers and limit power as a function of rail conditions.
This last function is made possible with the introduction of alternator control. Formulation of requests enables
the smooth running of the engine to be improved in the critical operating phases, mainly at idle speed and
when pulling away. These requests pass via the multiplex network to the Protection and Switching Unit where
they are converted before being sent to the alternator.
In comparison to the version without a particle filter (K9K Step 2), the K9K Step 2 particle filter technical
specifications also include:
●Four temperature sensors spread along the exhaust system.
●One differential pressure sensor.
●One fuel injector with a dedicated electric fuel pump.
●An electric water pump (in addition to the mechanical pump) controlled by a relay to cool the turbocharger when
the engine is stopped (only for Clio III, Modus and Mégane II/Scénic II).
●Four heating elements and their control unit.
Oil Control System (OCS) (except Vdiag 44, 45 and 49)
This program takes into account the driving style of the user to warn him of the need for an oil change. This program
counts the number of miles since the last oil change, corrected by a factor which depends on the oil temperature.
When the number of miles exceeds a threshold, the customer is warned by a message to the instrument panel that
the drain must be performed.
After the oil change, the user must reset the oil change interval on the instrument panel.

Fault finding – Function13B
The exhaust system is fitted with an exhaust gas treatment system consisting of (in order):
●A shell casing containing an oxidation catalytic converter to treat hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide, the volume
and positioning of which is identical to K9K Step 2 without a particle filter.
●A fuel injector supplied by a second fuel circuit which is independent of the main fuel circuit.
●A second casing containing an oxidation catalytic converter and a particle filter positioned under the vehicle floor.
EXHAUST GAS TREATMENT
Operating principle
Regeneration consists of burning the particles accumulated in the filter. When oxygen is present, regeneration
by particle combustion occurs naturally when the exhaust gas temperature reaches 570°C.
This temperature is very different to the temperatures observed in the normal operating range of a common rail
engine. In town, the engine does not produce much heat and the exhaust gas temperature varies between 250°C
and 300°C. Whatever the driving conditions may be, a particle filter regeneration program should be developed
without an effect on driving pleasure.
A differential pressure sensor monitors the status of the particle filter (particle weight) and triggers regeneration.
Regeneration is performed by specific injection regulation (phased injection and post-injection) which brings the
temperature of the exhaust gas to between 550 °C and 650 °C at the particle filter inlet.
Regeneration lasts at least 30 minutes and is carried out every 165 miles (275 km) (minimum interval between 2
successful regenerations).
Certain types of customer driving (mainly urban driving) may cause the particle filter to accumulate a significant
quantity of particles. This amount of soot may impair customer experience: poor vehicle performance due to
excessive pressure in the exhaust system.
This driving type may cause the speed request (Vdiag 45 and 49 only) warning light to come on when the particle
weight reaches 30.8 g or after 10 regeneration failures or if the distance between each regeneration reaches
111 0 m il es (1850 km). The customer is asked to drive in a certain way (see vehicle handbook).
However, this warning may be misinterpreted or taken to be a vehicle fault. The vehicle must not be returned to the
garage after such a warning; if the vehicle is taken back to the garage and accepted for repair, the mechanic should
carry out After-Sales regeneration.
PARTICLE FILTER INJECTOR PROGRAM
The particle filter injector is clamped in place inside a cooling cylinder head, which itself is attached to the output
cone of the first oxidation catalytic converter. The coolant flows into the cylinder head via a take-off pipe on the
cooling system and leaves via a hose connected to the turbocharger.
This injector is used to replace post injection in areas of low load and low flow.
This injector is supplied by an additional electric fuel pump.
The electric fuel pump is:
●controlled by a relay during each regeneration phase or purge,
●integrated into the suction module submerged in the tank,
●connected to the second fuel circuit.

PRECAUTIONS/RISKS
The main recommendation regarding the system is:
Never electrically disconnect the injectors with the engine running.
The piezoelectric technology used for the injector system means that the injectors receive a control pulse to open
and another control pulse to close. If the injector is disconnected between these 2 pulses while the engine is
running, i.e. during the actual injection process, the injector will remain open long enough to create very
unfavourable thermodynamic conditions in the cylinder(s) or generate hydraulic pressure which may result in
engine damage. Tool fault Associated DTC Diagnostic tool title

COMPUTER REPROGRAMMING OPERATIONS
The system can be reprogrammed via the diagnostic socket using the RENAULT CLIP diagnostic tool (see
Technical Note 3585A, Computer programming and reprogramming procedure).
Note:
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.
– Main switch in rest position (the computer then detects the rest position).
– Switch in Cruise control position to activate the Cruise control function.
– Switch in Speed limiter position to activate the Speed limiter function.
While the computer is being reprogrammed the fan assemblies are triggered automatically.
Before reprogramming the computer:
– Save the computer data to the diagnostic tool (engine adaptives) by performing command SC003 Save
computer data.
After any computer reprogramming operation:
– Switch the ignition off and then on again,
–Use the diagnostic tool to carry out the following procedures:
– run command RZ019 Programming reinitialisation.
– run command SC001 Write saved data to restore the engine adaptives,
– run command SC013 Enter VIN,
– start the engine (warning: the start-up phase may last up to 30 seconds),
– after injection computer reprogramming, stored faults may appear in other computers. Clear the fault memory of
these computers,
– carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.
DO NOT CARRY OUT ANY INJECTOR CODE WRITING ON THE SIEMENS SID304 AND 301 INJECTION
SYSTEMS.IMPORTANT
Switch on the diagnostic tool (mains or cigarette lighter supply).
Connect a battery charger.
Switch off all the electrical consumers (lights, interior lighting, air conditioning, radio CD, etc.).
Wait for the engine to cool (engine coolant temperature < 60 °C and air temperature < 50 °C).
