ALP5 Irregular engine operation
NOTESBefore analysing this customer complaint, check that there are no faults, and the
conformity (or otherwise) of the parameters and statuses, using the diagnostic tool.
If the customer complaint is not eliminated, perform the following checks.
Use the Wiring Diagram Technical Note, Laguna II ph2, Vel Satis ph2, Espace IV
ph2, Mégane II ph2, Scénic II ph2.
If the engine races during gear changes, if there is a floor mat, check that this is not blocking the accelerator pedal,
the brake pedal and the clutch pedal, then check the conformity of the clutch switch and the conformity of the
accelerator pedal sensor when the pedal is released (see PR086 Pedal potentiometer voltage gang 1 and
PR088 Pedal potentiometer voltage gang 2, Sensor supply).
Measure the resistance between connections 3BG and 3BL of component 149.
If the sensor resistance is not between:
741 Ω < X < 905 Ω at +20°C, replace the sensor.
Check the continuity and absence of interference resistance on the following connections:
•3BG between the components 120 and 149,
•3BL between components 120 and 149.
If the connection or connections are faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical
wiring repair, Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Check the conformity of the engine earths (oxidation, tightness, etc.).
Check the mounting and condition (overheating) of the sensor.
Check the low pressure circuit: run Test 3 Low pressure circuit check.
Apply the air flow checking procedure, (see conformity in the interpretation of statuses and parameters).
Check the turbocharger: apply Test 7 Variable geometry turbocharger control.
If the fault is still present, test the high pressure fuel circuit:
Run scenario SC035 High pressure fuel circuit fault finding.
To interpret the result, apply the interpretation of command SC035 (see Interpretation of commands).

TEST3 Low pressure circuit check
Check the fuel filter:
– Conformity of the fuel filter (correct part number and RENAULT filter).
– Positioning and degree of clogging of the filter cartridge.
– Positioning and condition of the seals.
– If there is metal swarf in the filter:
Replace the fuel filter, bleed the circuit and continue the fault finding procedure.
Supplying the injection system with fuel from an additional tank.
This operation aims to detect possible faults in the low pressure supply system of a vehicle by replacing it entirely
with an additional tank.
Mode:
– Disconnect the diesel fuel supply pipe at the fuel filter inlet and block it with a plug.
– Connect a pipe to the fuel filter inlet and insert the other end in a clean container with a capacity of approximately
5 litres.
– Disconnect the diesel fuel return pipe at the diesel temperature sensor (pump return and injector return join), and
block it using a plug.
– Connect a transparent pipe to the union of the diesel fuel temperature sensor, and insert the other end in the
container.
– Fill the container with clean diesel fuel.
– Start the engine and let the system drain itself of its air (there must not be any air bubbles in the return pipe).
Is the customer complaint still present?If the low pressure circuit is in order, reconnect the
various low pressure circuit pipes, and repeat the
fault finding chart procedure or the procedure for
the fault that referred you to this test.
Are the low pressure circuit connections in order
and in good condition?Carry out the necessary repairs.

Check the condition and operation of the priming bulb. Perform repairs if necessary and continue the test.
Check the condition of all the low pressure diesel pipes from the tank to the injection pump (in particular no pinching
of pipes).
If the fault is still present with a low fuel level, check the consistency of the actual fuel level and that indicated on
the instrument panel.
