Measuring the angular position (Cylinder reference sensor)
The angular position is measured using a magneto-inductive sensor triggered by machined teeth on the engine
flywheel. This flywheel has 60 teeth separated by six degrees, minus 2 missing teeth that form a notch.
A second sensor (Hall effect), activated by a machined tooth on the high pressure pump drive pulley
(synchronised with the camshaft), which rotates at half the engine speed, supplies a signal showing the progress of
the injection cycle. By comparing the signals from these two sensors, the computer's APS module (Angular Position
Subsystem) can supply the entire system with the synchronisation factors, namely: the angular position of
the flywheel, the engine speed, the number of the active injector, and the injection cycle timing. This module also
supplies the system with the engine speed signal.
Flow capacity function (VLC)
Because of the combination of several parameters such as the diesel fuel temperature, part wear, clogging of the
diesel filter, etc., the system may reach its limit during its service life. If this happens, the rail pressure cannot be
maintained because the pump lacks the necessary capacity. If the pump lacks the necessary capacity, this
programming will therefore reduce the requested flow to a value that will enable the pressure monitoring system to
control the pressure again.
The customer may have noticed a loss of vehicle performance when this program is activated (confirmed by
ET563 Flow capacity function). This is part of normal operation.
Function: Air flow management.
EGR valve control
The EGR (Exhaust gas recirculation) system comprises a proportional EGR valve with a built-in valve position
feedback potentiometer. The EGR valve position is controlled by the potentiometer in a closed loop and/or by
changes in the estimated air flow.
Calculation of the air flow
WITHOUT FLOWMETER (K9K 722)
Certain models are not fitted with air flowmeters. In this case the amount of fresh inlet air must be evaluated, based
on the values supplied by the surrounding systems. The (theoretical) air volume is calculated using a model with
these calculation parameters:
– the inlet air temperature measured by a sensor located after the turbocharger and/or after the intercooler (if fitted),
– the turbocharging pressure,
– the atmospheric pressure (external air),
– the EGR valve position,
– the fuel flow,
– the engine speed.
The atmospheric pressure sensor is optional. If fitted, it sends back an atmospheric pressure signal to an analogue
port on the micro-controller. If not, atmospheric pressure is recovered based on the turbocharger pressure
and the engine field.

Fault finding – Replacement of components13B
DDCR INJECTION
Vdiag No.: 44, 48
REPLACING THE INJECTORS:
The system may be configured via the diagnostic socket using the RENAULT CLIP diagnostic tool.
The C2I parameters must be replaced after replacing an injector/injectors.
To do this, reprogram the C2I into the computer using the following commands:
Cylinder 1 injector: command VP001 Cylinder 1 injector code (cylinder at flywheel end).
Cylinder 2 injector: command VP002 Cylinder 2 injector code.
Cylinder 3 injector: command VP003 Cylinder 3 injector code.
Cylinder 4 injector: command VP004 Cylinder 4 injector code.
It is also possible to enter the four C2I using command SC002 Enter injector codes.
The technician can use the appropriate command to re-enter the new C2I for the replaced injector and to erase the
old C2I.
–Only after simultaneously replacing at least three injectors, reset the injector programming adaptives, using
command RZ004 Pressure regulation programming adaptives. IMPORTANT
AFTER A PROGRAMMING OPERATION, DO NOT CONNECT THE BATTERY FOR AT LEAST 30 minutes (to
carry out other work on the vehicle).
Note:
If commands SC001 and SC003 have been lost or if they are not operating after programming the computer:
– Enter the C2I for each injector manually, by reading the C2I on each injector (see Replacement of
components, Injector replacement).
– Use command AC028 Static test to reinitialise the computer (fan assembly, etc.).
– Switch the ignition off and then on again.
– Clear the engine management computer faults.
IMPORTANT
It is not possible to try an injection computer from the Parts Department as it will not be possible to fit it on another
vehicle afterwards.
Note:
C2I (individual injector correction) is a calibration carried out in the factory on each injector to adjust the flow
of each injector precisely.
The correction values are written on a label affixed to each injector, then entered in the computer which can then
actuate each injector by taking account of their manufacturing variation.

AFTER REPAIRDeal with any faults displayed by the diagnostic tool. Clear the computer fault memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.

If 4.DEF, 5.DEF, the engine performance is 75%, no warning light illuminates.
Conditions for applying the fault finding procedure to a stored fault:
the fault is present with the engine under the starter or idling.
Check the connection and condition of the 2-track connector of the engine speed sensor. Repair if necessary.
Ensure the sensor is correctly fitted on the engine.
Check the connection and condition of the computer 48-track brown connector B.
Repair if necessary.
Measure the resistance at the engine speed sensor terminals.
Replace the engine speed sensor if the resistance is not:
– for 80hp versions (K9K 722): 800 Ω ± 80 Ω at 20°C
– for 100hp versions (K9K 728/729): 680 Ω ± 68 Ω at 20°C
Check the insulation, continuity and the absence of interference resistance on the following connections:
Sensor connector track A Track F2 computer connector B
Sensor connector track BTrack F3 computer connector B
Repair if necessary.
Check that the flywheel ring gear is not defective (missing teeth).
