1. DEF: Multiplex signals absent or values invalid (fault with the computer generating
the signal or multiplex line connection fault)
NOTESPriority in the event of a number of faults:
Deal with faults DF055 Battery undervoltage and DF052 Multiplex network first if
they are present or stored.
Deal with any automatic transmission computer faults first.
The fault does not usually come from the electronic parking brake computer.
Note:
If this fault is present, the parking brake loses its assisted application and release
functions.
Conditions for applying the fault finding procedure to a stored fault:
Apply this fault finding procedure if the fault reappears as present or stored after a
fault has been cleared, and the ignition has been switched off and on again (forced
+ after ignition feed: see Introduction).
Special notes:
This fault only relates to multiplex signals received from the automatic transmission
computer.
This fault indicates either that there is no signal or that the signals transmitted are
inconsistent.
Only for Vdiag 08, 0C and 0D:
If there is a stored fault, refer to the statuses and parameters when it appears.
Explanation of counters: see Introduction.
If the fault is stored and PR018 = 0 and PR022 > 25, clear the fault:
do not take this fault into account.
If the fault is stored and PR019 < 15 clear the fault:
do not take this fault into account.
AFTER REPAIRIf the computer has been replaced (at the request of the Techline), initialise the
electronic parking brake computer (see Replacement of components).
Issue several braking and release commands to confirm the repair.
Deal with any other faults.

Check the vehicle gearbox configuration: check that the configuration is not for a manual gearbox when the
vehicle is fitted with an automatic transmission, or that it is not configured for an automatic transmission when the
vehicle is manual.
Using the diagnostic tool, run fault finding on the multiplex system and particularly on the automatic
transmission computer-parking brake control unit segment.
This check ensures that the various multiplex system connections are correct and finds any faulty segments.
Carry out any necessary repairs.
If the multiplex system test did not find the faulty connection, carry out a conformity check to check that the
status coming from the automatic transmission computer is present and correct (ET018).
If status ET018 is not correct, carry out fault finding on the automatic transmission.
If the fault is still present, disconnect the automatic transmission computer connector to check that it is sound as
well as its clips (terminals), and in particular the clips for the multiplex tracks (refer to the wiring diagram for the
automatic transmission computer fitted on the vehicle).
Replace the clips if necessary.
If the fault persists, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRIf the computer has been replaced (at the request of the Techline), initialise the
electronic parking brake computer (see Replacement of components).
Issue several braking and release commands to confirm the repair.
Deal with any other faults.

1. DEF: Problem receiving multiplex frames by the parking brake computer. The

NOTESPriorities when dealing with a number of faults:
Deal first with faults DF003 (1.DEF; 2.DEF), DF004, DF028, DF029, DF041, DF042,
DF043, DF050, DF055, DF057, DF058 and DF073.
Deal with any faults on the multiplex network first (see 88B, Multiplexing).
Conditions for applying the fault finding procedure to a stored fault:
Apply this fault finding procedure if the fault reappears as present after the ignition
has been switched on (forced + after ignition feed, see Introduction).
Special notes:
This fault indicates either a complete absence of multiplex signal transmission (no
inconsistency) to the parking brake control unit, or no multiplex signal transmission
from two computers (the continuity of the multiplex network lines may be correct, but if
two computers fail to respond, this fault appears).
The fault does not usually come from the electronic parking brake computer.
Note:
Using another battery for a boost when starting may trigger this fault.
Only for Vdiag 08, 0C and 0D:
If there is a stored fault, refer to the statuses and parameters when it appears.
Explanation of counters: see Introduction.
If the fault is stored and PR018 = 0 and PR022 > 25 clear the fault: do not take this
fault into account.

Check that an additional booster battery has not been used when starting, if this is the case, this fault may appear.
Use the diagnostic tool to carry out a multiplex system test.
This check ensures that the various multiplex system connections are correct and finds any faulty segments.
Carry out any necessary repairs.
If the multiplex system test has not made it possible to find the defective connection, disconnect the electronic
parking brake computer connector to check it is in good condition and check the condition of the clips (terminals)
and in particular the clips for tracks A2 and A3.
Replace the clips if necessary.
With the electronic parking brake computer connector disconnected, check the insulation, continuity and the
absence of interference resistance on the connections between tracks A2 and A3 of the electronic parking
brake computer and the following computers:
– anti-lock braking system (see diagram of the various computers),
– injection (see diagram of the different computers),
– automatic transmission (see diagram of the different computers),
– UCH (see diagram of the different computers),
– Protection and Switching Unit (see diagram of the different computers).
Repair if necessary.
If the fault persists, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRIf the computer has been replaced (at the request of the Techline), initialise the
electronic parking brake computer (see Replacement of components).
Issue several braking and release commands to confirm the repair.

2. DEF
NOTESSpecial notes:
This fault is generated after the automatic parking brake is
switched on whilst driving or following an internal reset.
With the anti-lock braking system, this detection is active at
> 0.6 mph (> 1 km/h), otherwise the multiplex signal
emitted by the injection computer must be 1.
Note:
The driver is only informed of this fault after 16 successive
detections.
This fault may be due to battery disconnections or vehicle
supply faults, in which case it is associated with fault 1.DEF
(battery voltage too low) dealt with previously.
If the frequency counter (PR016) > 3 and if the onboard network (battery, wiring) analysis does not bring up any
present or stored fault under battery voltage, contact the Techline.
Check that the battery, battery - starter - alternator connection lead, battery earth - chassis lead and the chassis
earth - engine and transmission assembly lead are in good condition.
Repair if necessary.
Check the charging circuit: the alternator should not supply a voltage of less than + 12 V or greater than + 14.4 V
(engine at idle speed).
Carry out the necessary repairs.
