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.

4. FAULT FINDING PROCEDURE (continued)
Wiring check
Fault finding problems
Disconnecting the connectors and/or manipulating the wiring may temporarily remove the cause of a fault.
Electrical measurements of voltage, resistance and insulation are generally correct, especially if the fault is not
present when the analysis is made (stored fault).
Visual inspection
Look for damage under the bonnet and in the passenger compartment.
Carefully check the fuses, insulators and wiring harness routing.
Look for signs of oxidation.
Physical inspection
While manipulating the wiring, use the diagnostic tool to note any change in fault status from stored to present.
Make sure that the connectors are properly locked.
Apply light pressure to the connectors.
Twist the wiring harness.
If there is a change in status, try to locate the source of the fault.
Inspection of each component
Disconnect the connectors and check the appearance of the clips and tabs, as well as the crimping (no crimping on
the insulating section).
Make sure that the clips and tabs are properly locked in the sockets.
Check that no clips or tabs have been dislodged during connection.
Check the clip contact pressure using an appropriate model of tab.
Resistance check
Check the continuity of entire lines, then section by section.
Look for a short circuit to earth, to + 12 V or to another wire.
If a fault is detected, repair or replace the wiring harness.

Fault finding – Function13B
Engine synchronisation
One of the determining factors for fuel injection control is knowing the position of each of the pistons in their
respective cylinders at all times.
The angular position is measured using a TDC sensor triggered by machined teeth on the flywheel. The flywheel
has 60 teeth, with 2 teeth missing which forms a notch which is used as a reference point for the 1
st cylinder.
A second sensor (Hall-effect), excited by a machined tooth on the camshaft, and turning at half the engine speed,
provides information on the progress of the injection cycle. When the piston of cylinder 1 is at top dead centre (TDC),
either at the end of the compression stroke or at the end of the exhaust stroke, the camshaft sensor enables
a distinction to be made between these two states.
By comparing the signals from these two sensors, the computer is able to provide all of its systems with
synchronisation parameters, namely: the angular position of the flywheel, engine speed, the number of the active
injector and the progress of the injection cycle.
The module supplies the system with the rotation speed signal.
The camshaft sensor is only used when starting the engine. As soon as the engine is running by itself (not being
cranked by the starter), the signal provided by the TDC sensor is sufficient. A camshaft sensor fault, when the
engine is running, does not prevent the engine from operating correctly.
Quantity of fuel injected and control of start of injection
The parameters for controlling injection are, for each cylinder, the quantity to be injected and the start of injection.
These parameters are calculated by the injection computer using the following information:
– Engine speed.
– Accelerator pedal position.
– Turbocharging air pressure.
– Coolant temperature.
– Air temperature.
– Fuel temperature.
–Air flow.
– Pressure of fuel in the rail.

Fault finding – Function13B
AIR SUPPLY
Measurement of the fresh air flow
The flow of fresh air entering the engine is measured by a flow sensor (ratiometric hot-wire sensor).
A fresh air temperature sensor is integrated into the air flowmeter.
EGR valve control
The EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) system consists of a direct current EGR valve fitted with a valve position
sensor. The EGR valve is controlled in a closed-loop via the position sensor. Up to a certain rate, exhaust gas
recirculation enables nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions to be reduced significantly.
Turbocharger control
The turbocharger system consists of a solenoid valve connected to the vacuum pump circuit, which controls the
vanes via a diaphragm to create an overpressure or a vacuum in the fresh air inlet circuit (the overpressure can
reach 2.6 bar).
Damper valve control (for Vdiag 44, 45, 48, 49 and 4D only)
By default the valve is open when in the rest position and is actuated only when the engine is switched off; this has
a damping effect and helps to stop the engine.
It also controls the flow of fresh air during regeneration.
IDLE SPEED MANAGEMENT
The injection computer regulates the idle speed according to the idle speed setpoint which it calculates.
The idle speed setpoint is dependent on:
– the coolant temperature,
– the emission control programs,
– air conditioning requirements,
– the gear ratio engaged (automatic or sequential gearbox),
– the electrical consumers,
– battery voltage.
ENGINE TORQUE MANAGEMENT
The torque structure is the system which translates the driver's request into a torque supplied by the engine. Certain
functions such as the electronic stability program (ESP), the automatic gearbox (BVA) or the sequential gearbox
(BVR), if fitted to the vehicle, use this information.
Each inter-system (ESP, automatic gearbox, sequential gearbox) sends the injection computer a torque request via
the multiplex network.
The injection computer arbitrates between the inter-system torque requests and the driver request (depressing the
accelerator pedal or setting the cruise control/speed limiter function). The result of the arbitration gives the torque
setpoint.
From this torque set point, the computer determines the quantity of fuel to be injected (injection duration and number
of injection processes) and the amount of air required (turbocharging pressure and EGR valve rate) so that the
engine is able to provide the torque required in the best possible conditions (in terms of smooth running
performance, pollutant emissions, etc.).
