3. RECAP

Faults:

There are faults which are displayed and stored present faults (which occurred in certain circumstances and which
still exist) and stored faults (which occurred in certain circumstances and have since disappeared or which are still
present but not detected in the present context).
The present or stored status of faults must be considered when using the diagnostic tool after switching on + after
ignition (without activating any system components).
Present faults must be dealt with according to the procedure specified in the Interpretation of faults section.
For a stored fault, note the faults displayed and follow the instructions shown in the Notes section.
If the fault is confirmed when the instructions in the Notes section are applied, the fault is present. In this case, deal
with the fault.
If the fault is not confirmed, carry out basic checks. Check:
– The electric lines on which there is a fault;
– The connectors on these lines (corrosion, bent pins, etc.);
– The resistance of the faulty component;
– The condition of the wires (insulation melted or cut, chafing, etc.).

AIR CONDITIONING
Manual air conditioning
and
Climate control Fault finding – Introduction 62A
Conformity check
The aim of the conformity check is to check statuses and parameters that do not produce a fault display on the
diagnostic tool when they are inconsistent. Therefore, this phase is used to:
– carry out fault finding on faults that do not have a fault display, and which may correspond to a customer complaint.
– check that the system is operating correctly and that there is no risk of a fault recurring after repairs.

This section features the fault finding procedures for statuses and parameters, and the conditions for checking them.

If a status is not behaving normally or a parameter is outside the permitted tolerance values, consult the
corresponding fault finding page.

Notes about the conformity check for the climate control system:

The air conditioning system conformity check is divided into four parts. The parts relate to the four air conditioning
sub-functions, heater, cold loop, user selection and passenger compartment ventilation.

The statuses and parameters related to these sub-functions are listed with their respective computers.

N.B.: the manual air conditioning control panel does not control electrical components and cannot be subjected to
fault finding. Therefore, there is no conformity check in the 62C Manual air conditioning section.

Note:
The interpretation of statuses, parameters and commands is also split into several sections. Everything controlled by
the air conditioning control panel is explained in the two Air conditioning sections, 62A and 62B. On the other hand,
signals from other computers are explained in the Fault finding sections for these computers (see the conformity
check).

Customer complaints - Fault finding chart

If the diagnostic tool check is correct, but the customer complaint persists, the fault should be dealt with according to
the customer complaint.

A summary of the general procedure to follow is provided on the


following page in the form of a flowchart.

5. FAULT FINDING LOG
IMPORTANT:
For any reimbursement for a monitored part (computer type) or call to Techline, you will be asked
IMPORTANT! for a correctly completed fault finding log. This makes it possible to keep track of your fault finding.

IT IS THEREFORE COMPULSORY TO COMPLETE A FAULT FINDING LOG


EVERY TIME A FAULT FINDING PROCEDURE IS PERFORMED.

All faults requiring replacement of a computer must have a thorough fault finding procedure performed on them,
using the appropriate tools. The fault finding log, which must be filled in during fault finding, makes dialogue with
the manufacturer more constructive by providing:
● faster and more relevant Techline assistance;
● better analysis of the approval request and more likelihood that the replacement of parts will be accepted;
● clearer statement of your observations for the warranty reimbursement form.

6. SAFETY ADVICE

All work on components requires the observation of safety rules to prevent damage or injury:
– Make sure the battery is properly charged to avoid damaging the computers with a low load.
– Do not smoke.
– Use the appropriate tools.

AIR CONDITIONING
Manual air conditioning
and
Climate control Fault finding – Function layout 62A
Air conditioning system layout

The air conditioning system uses four computers. The four computers are connected by the multiplex system, except
in the case of manual air conditioning, where the connection between the air conditioning control panel and the
passenger compartment central unit (UCH) is by normal wiring.

The air conditioning control panel interprets the driver's wishes and transmits them to the other computers; it also
manages the passenger compartment ventilation, air distribution, air mixing and air recirculation.

The Passenger Compartment Control Unit (UCH) transmits the request to engage the air conditioning compressor to
the injection and controls the operation of the passenger compartment heating resistors (RCH).

The injection receives the refrigerant fluid pressure signal from the pressure sensor. The injection computer
authorises or inhibits the request to engage the compressor depending on how the vehicle is operating and transmits
the signal to the Protection and Switching Unit (UPC).

The role of the UPC is to manage the power section of the air conditioning system. It controls the engagement of the
compressor, the engine cooling fan assemblies and the heated rear screen.

AIR CONDITIONING
Manual air conditioning
and
Climate control Fault finding – Mode of operation 62A
General operation

The air conditioning system is composed of four sub-functions: heating, cold loop, passenger compartment
ventilation and user selection. Fault finding on the air conditioning is performed in two different ways using the
diagnostic tool.
The first procedure is by computer fault finding which makes it possible to communicate with just one computer
(select the computer concerned). The second procedure consists of performing fault finding on each function
which allows communication with all four computers of the AIR CONDITIONING function.

Description of the sub-functions

Heater sub-function: this sub-function includes everything relating to the production of warm air in the vehicle and
management of the heated rear screen.
The main computers involved are the air conditioning computer (air mixing and blown air setting) and the UCH
(control and management of the passenger compartment heating resistors). The Protection and Switching Unit
controls the heated rear screen (and heated door mirror). The injection computer is only included in this sub-function
to supply the signals required for its management.

Cold loop sub-function: this sub-function includes everything involved in the vehicle's production of cold air.
The computers concerned are the air conditioning computer for air mixing, the injection computer to authorise
compressor engagement and the UPC to control the compressor and the engine fan assemblies. With climate
control systems, the UCH merely transmits the request to engage the compressor from the air conditioning computer
to the injection computer.
With manual air conditioning, the UCH authorises or inhibits sending the request to engage the compressor from the
air conditioning computer to the injection computer depending on the status of the passenger compartment blower
(with manual air conditioning, the UCH receives and manages the passenger compartment blower speed signal:
compressor engagement is inhibited if the blower is not running).

User selection sub-function: this sub-function includes everything used to transmit the user's requests (pressing
buttons). The computers concerned are the air conditioning computer for climate control systems and the UCH.
The two other computers are not used for manual air conditioning.

Passenger compartment ventilation sub-function (climate control systems only): this sub-function includes
everything involved in ventilation, air mixing, air recirculation and air distribution. Therefore, only the air conditioning
computer is involved.

Only refer to this customer complaint after a full check with the diagnostic tool
(fault readings, especially those of the Protection and Switching Unit, and configuration
checks).

Special notes:
– Check that the inside of the glass is not greasy as this lowers the de-icing efficiency.

NOTES
Note: The de-icing command may only be used when the engine is running to
prevent a power drain.
Rear screen de-icing can be activated in two ways:
– Pressing the de-icing button (at the bottom of the control panel) switches on the
heated rear screen in manual mode (with timer) and heated door mirrors.
– Pressing the de-icing button at the top of the control panel activates the "See clear"
function: heated rear screen in automatic mode (no timer) heated door mirrors, air
conditioning and high speed windscreen ventilation all switched on.

Check that there are no water leaks into the passenger compartment
which would significantly increase the humidity levels and reduce the
effectiveness of demisting. Repair if necessary (see ALP 12).
