5. FAULT FINDING LOG
You will always be asked for this log:
●when requesting technical assistance from Techline,
●for approval requests when replacing parts for which approval is mandatory,
●to be attached to monitored parts for which reimbursement is requested. The log is needed for warranty
reimbursement, and enables better analysis of the parts removed.
6. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety rules must be observed during any work on a component to prevent any damage or injury:
– check the battery voltage to avoid incorrect operation of computer functions,
– use the proper tools. IMPORTANT!IMPORTANT
Any fault on a complex system requires thorough fault finding with the appropriate tools. The
FAULT FINDING LOG, which should be completed during the fault finding procedure, ensures a
record is kept of the procedure carried out. It is an essential document when consulting the
manufacturer.
IT IS THEREFORE ESSENTIAL THAT THE FAULT FINDING LOG IS FILLED OUT EVERY TIME IT IS
REQUESTED BY TECHLINE OR THE WARRANTY RETURNS DEPARTMENT.

ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE
Fault finding – System operation
PRESENTATION OF THE PARKING BRAKE:
The electronic parking brake provides the following functions:
– keeps the vehicle stationary when stopped (parking brake).
– 'dynamic' emergency brake (if the main brakes fail).
– automatic braking force adjustment according to the slope (adapted application),
– electronically-assisted parking brake application when the engine is stopped (depending on configuration),
– easy start with electronically-assisted parking brake release (depending on configuration),
– manual application and release by pulling on the lever.
SYSTEM COMPONENTS AND OPERATION:
The system consists of the following components:
●Control lever with brake on indicator light.
– For applying and releasing the parking brake.
●Control unit (computer) housing an electric motor, the brake cable hooks, angle sensor and force sensor.
–The angle sensor controls locking according to the angle of the slope.
–The force sensor checks and corrects the force applied to the brakes.
●Clutch pedal position sensor to help with pulling away.
– Informs the computer of the vehicle's clutch position (the position of the pedal enables the torque necessary for
vehicle movement to be obtained).
●Tw o mechanical cables
– Convey the mechanical force to the rear brakes.
●Emergency control cable (in the central storage compartment on the LAGUNA, VEL SATIS and ESPACE and in
the boot on the SCENIC).
– Enables the rear brakes to be released in the event of the battery or parking brake failing.
●Warning lights and symbol on the instrument panel.
– Indicate application, releasing and any faults on the parking brake.
Note:
The parking brake cable play compensation is performed automatically by the control unit.

GENERAL OPERATING MODE FOR THE COMPUTER:
The electronic parking brake computer operates in two modes: STANDBY mode and SWITCH ON mode.
●SWITCH ON mode:
Available functions:
– Manual application and release, assisted application and release and emergency braking (steering column
unlocked).
– Full system fault finding (all faults can be identified).
Switch on conditions (3 possibilities):
– The UCH sends a switch on request to the parking brake computer via the multiplex network when the vehicle
is opened or the card is inserted in the reader.
– Braking request via the parking brake control lever.
– Battery voltage more than 13.2 V, if the vehicle has been parked for less than 24 hours.
●STANDBY mode:
Available functions:
– Monitoring of the braking force and slope angle for 24 hours (to ensure parking brake application).
– Only application is authorised (using the lever).
– Restricted system fault finding (the computer can no longer identify all faults).
– Release not authorised.
Conditions for setting to standby:
– The UCH sends a "set to standby" request to the parking brake computer via the multiplex network after the
ignition is switched off and the vehicle is locked (after a few seconds). The parking brake computer's STANDBY
mode will be confirmed by the lever warning light going out (special note: the battery voltage must be less than
13.2 V).
CABLE RESETTING:
The parking brake cable is locked after the control lever is released or after driving at over 1 mph (2 km/h) (switched
on mode).
When the electronic parking brake system locks, it makes a sound that lasts for a few seconds and ends with
clicking (play compensation is automatic).WARNING
Before using the emergency control, it is important to put the vehicle into gear and wedge one wheel if necessary
(on a slope).

Before replacing the electronic parking brake computer, save the data from the old
computer (for vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox).
For this operation, see Replacement of components.

NOTESNone.
If the fault is present or stored, contact the Techline.
3. DEF
NOTESSpecial notes:
The fault does not usually come from the electronic parking
brake computer.
This fault indicates that the computer has detected several
losses of feed (micro-breaks).
Note:
This fault may be caused by several battery disconnections
or a vehicle power supply 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,
then clear the fault:
do not take this fault into account.
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 forced
+ after ignition feed has been switched off and on again
(seeIntroduction).
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.

CONTINUED
Disconnect the electronic parking brake computer connector (under the body near the rear axle) to check the
conformity of the power supply (this must equal the voltage measured at the battery terminals ± 0.5 V).
Check the insulation, continuity and the absence of interference resistance on the following connections:
Electronic parking brake computer connector
track H4
(except Laguna II, Vel Satis and Espace IV)
track G4+12V
track H2
(except Laguna II, Vel Satis and Espace IV)

Note:
If the electrical supply is correct, check that the supply has not been cut off by moving the electrical harness
(near to the intermediate connector under the front left-hand seat at the computer connector).
Repair if necessary (see the vehicle wiring diagram).
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.
