TEST 7 High pressure circuit sealing check
NOTESSpecial note:
Certain faults make it impossible to carry out this test - deal with these first.
The command AC029 High pressure circuit sealing test enables a high pressure circuit sealing test to be
carried out when the engine is running.
This command can locate a leak in the high pressure circuit if a union is incorrectly fitted or screwed on. This test
does not identify a minor leak due to a union not being tightened to torque.
This command can be used only if the engine temperature is greater than 60ºC.
Watch out for any objects (tool or others) on the sides of the engine housing during the 4 accelerations
(possible vibrations).
Run command AC029 High pressure circuit sealing test, the engine will automatically carry out a cycle of
four accelerations to increase the rail pressure and check for leaks in the high pressure circuit.

TEST 8 Injector return flow
NOTESSpecial note:
Certain faults make it impossible to carry out this test - deal with these first.
Does the engine start?
Command AC029 High pressure circuit sealing also checks the return volume of each injector to detect any
leaks around the injectors.
Be careful with any objects (tool or other) on the engine housing during the four cycles of the operation
(possible vibrations).
Tooling required
–Mot. 1711 Injector flow measuring kit.
Or: Use four pipes with internal diameter 4mm and approximately 50 cm in length, and four graduated
measuring cylinders.
Procedure
– Ensure that the engine coolant temperature is above 60°C,
– switch off the ignition,
– disconnect the return pipes from the four injectors,
– cap the pump venturi tube to prevent the low-pressure circuit from depriming,
– connect the four transparent tubes in place of the return pipes,
– put the other ends of the four pipes into four graduated measuring cylinders.

When all the preparations are complete, start the engine and leave it running:
For 30 seconds at idle speed for Euro 4 type engines: K9K 714 - 718 - 740 - 792 - 796.
Let it idle for 2 minutesfor the euro 3 type engines: K9K 790 - 794.
Note:
These time periods must be respected for the test results to be interpreted correctly.
–Run command AC029 High pressure circuit sealing check
.The engine will automatically carry out a cycle of four accelerations to increase the rail pressure and measure
the internal injector leaks under these conditions.
–When the cycle has finished, run command AC029 High pressure circuit sealing test a second time to
obtain the correct return volume reading for each injector.
Switch off the engine at the end of the cycle.

At the end of the idling phase and these two cycles, the return volume of each injector must be:
45 ml (maximum)for Euro 4 type engines: K9K 714 - 718 - 740 - 792 - 796.
35 ml (maximum).for the euro 3 type engines: K9K 790 - 794.
If the return volume of one of the injectors is more than the values above, only replace the faulty injector (see
MR388 (Logan/Sandero) or MR451 (Duster), Mechanical, 13B, Diesel injection, Diesel injector: Removal -
Refitting).
Disconnect the 4 transparent pipes and reconnect the injector return circuit.
Carry out the following test to confirm the repair:
– With the ignition off, disconnect the low pressure actuator from the pump (brown IMV connector) and connect
the test adapter (test IMV, Mot. 1711),
– electrically disconnect the 4 injectors,
– switch on the ignition, connect the diagnostic tool and re-establish dialogue with the injection system,
– Go to the Main computer statuses and parameters screen,
– activate the starter for 5 seconds,
– read the maximum rail pressure value PR038 Rail pressure during the test on the diagnostic tool.
If the rail pressure (PR038 Rail pressure) is lower than 1050 bar, run test 6 High pressure system check.
– Switch off the ignition, and reconnect the four injectors electrically,
– disconnect the test filling actuator (test IMV) and reconnect the low pressure actuator connector (IMV) to the
pump,
– switch on the ignition again, and clear the injection faults using the diagnostic tool.
If the rail pressure (PR038) is greater than 1050 bar, the repair is correct.
End of TEST8.

If the engine does not start, only the static leakage can be measured, i.e. the leakage with the injector closed, not
actuated and under high pressure.
Make sure that the ignition circuit is working correctly (minimum engine speed 200 rpm).
Tooling required
–Mot. 1711 Injector flow measuring kit.
Or: Use 4 pipes with internal diameter 4mm and approximately 50 cm in length, and a test adapter (TEST
IMV).
Procedure
– Switch off the ignition,
– disconnect the return pipes from the four injectors,
– cap the pump venturi tube to prevent the low-pressure circuit from depriming,
– connect the four transparent pipes in place of the return pipes (Mot. 1711),
– disconnect the low pressure actuator from the pump (brown IMV connector) and connect a test IMV or the Mot.
1711,
– electrically disconnect the four injectors,
– switch on the ignition and engage the starter for 5 seconds,
– measure the amount of diesel fuel in each pipe.
If the return leakage is greater than 10 cm, replace the injector(s) (see MR 388 (Logan/Sandero) or MR 451
(Duster), MR 423 (Thalia 2/Symbol 2) or MR 374 (Kangoo VLL), Mechanical, 13B, Diesel injection, Diesel
injector: Removal - Refitting).
Switch off the ignition, and reconnect the four injectors electrically.
Disconnect the test low pressure actuator and reconnect the low pressure actuator connector to the pump.
Disconnect the four transparent tubes and reconnect the injectors return circuit. Switch on the ignition again, and
clear the injection faults using the diagnostic tool.

High pressure circuit check
Note:
Depending on the vehicle type, the best visual access will be either
from above or from below.
Visually inspect the condition of the following components:
– the compressor outlet pipe to the turbocharging air cooler (the
turbocharging air cooler does not exist for all engines),
– outlet pipe of the turbocharging air cooler to the inlet manifold,
– inlet manifold,
– temperature and pressure sensors.
Is one of these components incorrect (disconnected, cut, bent,
pierced or kinked pipes)?Replace the faulty parts
(see MR 388 (Logan/
Sandero), MR 451
(Duster), MR 423 (Thalia
