Functions included
Air conditioning management assistance
On models with air conditioning, the DCM 1.2 system allows the air conditioning to be deactivated under certain
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 (eg. high acceleration demand for overtaking, anti-stalling and moving off). These
conditions are only taken into account if they do not occur repeatedly, so as to prevent system instabilities (erratic
deactivation),
– when certain faults appear.
Cold loop air conditioning management
The air conditioning system is a cold loop system and is managed by the injection computer which is responsible for:
– managing the cooling request according to passenger compartment controls and the refrigerant fluid pressure
value,
– calculating the power absorbed by the compressor from the refrigerant pressure,
– determining the fan unit commands according to the vehicle speed and the refrigerant fluid pressure.
The driver requests the air conditioning to be switched on by means of the ventilation selector coupled to a switch.
This cooling request may or may not be authorised depending on the refrigerant fluid 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
Engines with direct injection systems are characterised by the direct injection of fuel into the combustion chamber.
This leads to heat being lost through the upper part of the engine and consequently, the cylinder head cooling
system is smaller in size.
The effect of this is that the temperature of the coolant which flows through this circuit rises more slowly. 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 reduce the time taken to warm up the system, air heating resistors, called passenger compartment heating
resistors, are fitted in the passenger compartment heating circuit. The DCM 1.2 injection computer determines
whether it is necessary to physically control the passenger compartment heating resistors. The injection computer
determines, on the one hand, limitation of the passenger compartment heating resistor power control depending on
the alternator charge, and on the other hand, the inhibition of the passenger compartment heating resistors
according to the engine speed, load and vehicle speed.Note:
Fan unit control requests are made from the injection computer.
These requests depend on the air conditioning, but also on the engine coolant temperature and vehicle speed.

Instrument panel display
The computer manages the data display on the instrument panel relating to engine operation.
There are six functions concerned:
–the On board diagnostics MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp),
– pre-postheating,
– the coolant temperature,
– engine problems; Level 1 (non-critical fault) and Level 2 (emergency stop).
– detection of water in the fuel (depending on instrument panel).
These six functions are represented using four indicator lights.
Pre-postheating and electronic fault warning light (Level 1)
This light is used to indicate that the heater plugs are preheating and as a system fault indicator light:
– Continuously illuminated during + after ignition feed: indicates preheating of the heater plugs.
– Flashing after preheating and an automatic 3-second stop indicates a Level 1 fault (the function is not working
optimally and safety levels are reduced). The user must carry out repairs as soon as possible).
Engine coolant temperature warning light (Level 2)
This indicator light is used both as an in-operation indicator light and as a system fault warning light. It illuminates for
3 seconds when the power is switched on (automatic test procedure).
Continuously illuminated during + after ignition feed: indicates engine overheating or a Level 2 fault.
OBD warning light
This warning light is used to alert the driver of any injection faults that could lead to excessive pollution, or if the OBD
system has been deactivated.
The injection computer requests illumination of the OBD warning light for a present fault only after three successive
driving cycles.
The 3 second visual inspection when the ignition is switched on (automatic test procedure managed by the
instrument panel) is carried out by the injection computer.

NOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to a stored fault:
The fault is present with the engine idling.
Special notes:
If fault DF016 is present: unstable engine speed and even stalling.
Starting difficult or even impossible when cold.
Use the Wiring Diagrams Technical Note for Logan, Sandero, Duster, Thalia 2/
Symbol 2 or Kangoo VLL.
K9K 718, 740, 792, 796 engine (Euro 4):
Check the connection and condition of the exhaust gas recirculation valve connector, component code 1460.
Check the connection and condition of the injection computer, component code 120.
If the connectors are faulty and if there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A (Renault) or Technical
Note 9804A (Dacia), Electrical wiring repair, Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the connector, otherwise
replace the wiring.

●3VQ between components 1460 and 120.
If the connection or connections are faulty and if there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A (Renault)
or Technical Note 9804A (Dacia), Electrical wiring repair, Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring,
otherwise replace it.
Check for the supply 13 V < X< 14 V (with the engine running), 11.5 V < X < 12.5 V (with the ignition on and
the engine stopped) on connection 3VP of component 1460.
