To cut off + after ignition, proceed as follows:
– disconnect the diagnostic tool,
– press the start button twice briefly (less than 3 seconds),
– check that the + after ignition feed has been cut off by checking that the computer warning lights on the instrument
panel have gone out.
Fault
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 the faults should be taken into consideration when the diagnostic tool is used after
the + after ignition feed has been connected (with no system components activated).
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 Notes paragraph.
If the fault is confirmed when the notes 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 cut insulation, wear).
Or use diagnostics to check the circuit of the suspect component.
Conformity check
The conformity check is designed to check the statuses and parameters that do not display any faults on
the diagnostic tool when inconsistent. Therefore, this stage is used to:
Run 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 repair.
– This section features the fault finding procedures for statuses and parameters, and the conditions for checking
them.
If a status is not operating normally or a parameter is outside permitted tolerance values, you should consult
the corresponding fault finding page.
Customer complaints - Fault-finding chart
If the diagnostic tool check is correct, but the customer complaint is still present, it should be dealt with using
Customer complaints.NOTE:
The right-hand and left-hand xenon bulb computers are powered when the dipped headlights are lit. Fault finding
can only be carried out on them after the ignition has been switched on in fault finding mode (forced + after ignition
feed) and the dipped headlights are on.
A summary of the overall 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 clear the cause of a fault.
The electrical measurements of the voltage, resistance, and insulation are generally correct, especially if the fault is
not present when the measurements are being taken (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
When handling the wiring, use the diagnostic tool to detect any change in the status of the fault from stored to
present.
Make sure that the connectors are firmly 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 their crimping (no crimping on
the insulation). Check that the clips and the tabs are correctly 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 with another wire.
If a fault is detected, repair or replace the wiring harness.
5. FAULT FINDING LOG
IMPORTANTIMPORTANT
Any fault on a complex system requires thorough fault finding with the appropriate tools.
The FAULT FINDING LOG, which should be completed during the procedure, enables you to
keep track of the procedure which is carried out. It is an essential document when consulting
the manufacturer.
IT IS THEREFORE COMPULSORY TO COMPLETE A FAULT FINDING LOG EVERY TIME A FAULT FINDING

System outline
The DDCR injection system used on the K9 engine is an electronically managed high pressure injection system.
The fuel is compressed by a high pressure pump then stored in a rail that feeds the injectors. Injection occurs when
a current pulse is applied to the injector holders. The injected flow is proportional to the rail pressure and to
the applied pulse length, and the start of injection is phased with the start of the pulse.
The circuit comprises two subsystems, which are distinguished by the fuel pressure level.
– The low pressure system includes the tank, diesel fuel filter, transfer pump and injector holder return pipes.
– The high pressure circuit contains the high pressure pump, the rail, the injector holders and the high pressure tubes.
Finally, there are a certain number of sensors and regulating actuators for controlling and monitoring the entire
system.
Functions provided
Function: Fuel supply management (timing, flow and pressure).
Quantity of fuel injected and injection timing adjustment
The injection checking parameters are the quantities to be injected and their respective timing. These are calculated
by the computer using signals from the following sensors:
• Engine speed (Crankshaft + Cam for synchronisation)
• Accelerator pedal
• Turbocharging pressure and air temperature (Turbocharger pressure)
• Coolant temperature
• Air temperature
• Air load (Flow and Pressure)
• Rail pressure
• Flowmeter
• Turbocharging solenoid valve
The quantities to be injected and their respective timing are converted into:
• a reference tooth
• the time between this tooth and the start of the pulse
• the time for which the supply to the injector holder is on
An electrical current (pulse) is sent to each injector holder according to previously calculated data. The system
makes one or two injections (1 pilot injection, 1 main injection). The general principle is to calculate an overall
injected flow which will then be divided into a main injection flow and a pilot injection flow, to help the combustion
process work properly and to reduce pollutant emissions.
An accelerometer is used to monitor some of the fuel injection deviation. This has several roles:
• Protecting the engine by detecting injection leaks (disabled on the basic vehicle).
• Checking the pilot quantity by measuring deviation and dispersion
• By changing both the duration and timing of the injection, the quantity of fuel injected and the mixture ignition timing
can be adjusted.

Functions included
Air conditioning management assistance
For vehicles with air conditioning, the DDCR system can switch off the air conditioning under certain engine
operating conditions:
– 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.
Cold loop air conditioning management
The air conditioning is the cold loop type and its management shared between several computers. The injection
computer is responsible for:
– managing demand for cold air according to the passenger compartment commands and the pressure value,
– determining the power absorbed by the compressor from the pressure,
– determining the fan unit commands according to vehicle speed and pressure.
The driver requests the air conditioning to be switched on by means of the ventilation selector coupled to a switch.
The cold air request is authorised or denied depending on the pressure measured. If this pressure is outside
the operating limits, the cold loop program is not activated.
Thermal regulation of the passenger compartment heating circuit
In a direct injection engine, fuel is injected directly into the combustion chamber. This leads to heat being lost
through the upper part of the engine and consequently, the cylinder head cooling circuit is smaller in size.
The effect of this is that the temperature of the coolant flowing through this circuit rises more slowly. However, this
coolant is also used by the passenger compartment heating system. In very cold conditions, it is therefore difficult to
achieve a comfortable passenger compartment temperature quickly.
To limit the time taken to warm up the system, air heating resistors, called RCHs, are fitted into the passenger
compartment heating circuit. The UCH decides whether the RCH are required, the UPC physically actuates
the RCH, and the injection computer determines whether to limit the power supplied to the RCH depending on
alternator charge, and also whether to disable them according to engine speed, load and vehicle speed. NOTE:
Fan unit actuation requests can be made by the injection computer, but these are sent on the CAN. These requests
depend on the air conditioning but also on the coolant temperature and vehicle speed.
