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.

Fault finding – Function13B
TDC sensor:
The angular position is measured using a magneto-inductive sensor triggered by machined teeth on the flywheel.
This sensor gives the engine speed and the position of the crankshaft for injection.
Camshaft sensor:
This sensor gives a signal to perform the injection cycle. When the piston of cylinder 1 is at top dead centre, 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.
Electric coolant pump:
The electric coolant pump is activated when the coolant temperature has reached a significant temperature
threshold when the engine has stopped.
The role of the electric water pump is to cool the turbocharger when the engine stops (Vdiag 45, 49 only).
Refrigerant pressure sensor:
The role of the sensor is to measure the refrigerant fluid pressure in the air conditioning circuit.
Electric fuel pump:
The pump is controlled by a relay during each regeneration or purge phase; it is submerged in the tank and is
connected to the secondary fuel circuit only.
Coolant temperature sensor:
The engine coolant temperature sensor informs the computer about the engine coolant temperature.
Air temperature sensor:
The air temperature sensor is fitted in the inlet manifold and informs the computer about the temperature of the air
sucked up by the engine.
Turbocharging pressure sensor solenoid valve:
This solenoid valve operates the turbocharger wastegate pneumatic circuit to lower the turbocharging pressure.
Catalytic converter:
Its role is to convert pollutant gases into harmless gases.
Catalytic converter downstream temperature sensor:
This sensor gives the temperature of the exhaust gas at the catalytic converter output.
Turbine upstream temperature sensor:
This sensor gives the temperature of the exhaust gas at the turbine inlet.
Particle filter downstream temperature sensor:
This sensor gives the exhaust gas temperature at the particle filter outlet (Vdiag 45, 49, 4D only).
Particle filter upstream temperature sensor:
This sensor gives the exhaust gas temperature at the particle filter inlet (Vdiag 45, 49, 4D only).
Particle filter differential pressure sensor:
A differential pressure sensor monitors the status of the particle filter (particle weight) and triggers regeneration.
The role of the sensor is to inform the computer of the pressure difference between particle filter inlet and outlet
(Vdiag 45, 49, 4D only).

After-Sales regeneration comprises 4 important stages:
– Heating of the engine and checking for a small quantity of soot in the particle filter by measuring the differential
pressure.
– The system changes from combustion mode and starts to regenerate the particle filter. Gradual cooling of the
particle filter.
– End of After-Sales regeneration.
Stopping conditions:
– Dialogue with the diagnostic tool has been lost.
– Vehicle movement detected by speed sensor.
– Brake or clutch pedal depressed.
– Stop regeneration requested by the diagnostic tool.
– End of test.
The procedure lasts 30 minutes.
– At the end of regeneration, a message announces whether the regeneration has been successful or which
operations to carry out.
CONFIRMING THE REGENERATION PROCESS:
At the end of regeneration, a message appears to announce whether the regeneration was successful:
particle filter regeneration successful: regeneration completed correctly.
weight of soot too high - run command SC017 again: regeneration failed because the weight of soot at
the end of regeneration was too high and the temperature upstream of the particle filter was too low. Check
the oil level before starting another regeneration.
weight of soot too high: regeneration failed because the weight of soot at the end of regeneration was
too high in spite of the correct temperature upstream of the particle filter. The particle filter is full of residue
(regeneration impossible), refer to the fault finding chart ALP21 Particle filter warning light lit.
present or stored fault: regeneration failed because faults were declared.
Refer to the interpretation of faults, after resolving the faults, run command SC017 again.
AFTER REPAIRDeal with any faults displayed by the diagnostic tool.
Clear the computer fault memory.
