There must be no present or stored faults:
Perform this fault finding procedure if there is a fault with the passenger compartment
heating - demisting.
Use the Wiring Diagram Technical Note, Laguna II ph2, Vel Satis ph2, Espace IV
ph2, Mégane II ph2, Scénic II ph2.
If the Thermoplunger no. 3 relay or the additional heater interface unit does not function when command
AC031 is run.
Check the condition of the thermoplunger 3 relay mounting on the engine fuse box or the additional heater
interface unit (see Wiring Diagram Technical Note, Vehicle, component code 1069 or 1550).
Check the condition of the engine management computer connector (see Wiring Diagram Technical Note,
Vehicle, component code 120).
If the connector or connectors are faulty and if there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical
wiring repair, Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the connector, otherwise replace the wiring.
if the fault is still present, check as follows that this relay is controlled by the engine management computer:
Disconnect the thermoplunger no. 3 relay and fit a 50 Ω to 100Ω resistor on its mounting instead of the coil and
connect a voltmeter as follows:
– positive terminal to + 12 V battery,
– negative terminal to connection 3JAB of component 1069 or 1550.
Run command AC031.
If the voltmeter indicates the battery voltage (4 ON-OFF cycles of 10 seconds), replace the thermoplunger no. 3
relay.
If the voltmeter does not show the battery voltage (4 ON-OFF cycles of 10 seconds), contact the Techline.
