Fault finding - Introduction 87G
Faults
Faults are declared present or stored (depending on whether they appeared in a certain context and have
disappeared since, or whether they remain present but are not diagnosed within the current context).
The present or stored status of the fault should be considered when the diagnostic tool is switched on after the +
after ignition feed is switched on (without any action on the system components).
For a present fault, apply the procedure described in the Interpretation of faults section.
For a stored fault, note the faults displayed and apply the Notes section.
If the fault is confirmed when the instructions are applied, the fault is present. Deal with the fault.
If the fault is not confirmed, check:

– the electrical lines which correspond to the fault,
– the connectors on these lines (corrosion, bent pins, etc.),
– the resistance of the component detected as faulty,
– the condition of the wires (melted or split insulation, wear).
cardiagn.com
Conformity check
The aim of the conformity check is to check data that does not produce a fault on the diagnostic tool because the
data is inconsistent. Therefore, this stage 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 gives 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.
Customer complaints - Fault finding chart
If the test with the diagnostic tool is OK but the customer complaint is still present, the fault should be processed by
Customer complaints.
A summary of the overall procedure to follow is provided on the following page in the
form of a flow chart.

Wiring check
Fault finding problems

Disconnecting the connectors and/or handling the wiring harness may temporarily remove, the cause of a fault.
Electrical measurements of voltage, resistance and insulation are generally correct, especially if the fault is not
present when the analysis is made (stored fault).
Visual inspection
Look for damage under the bonnet and in the passenger compartment.
Carefully check the fuses, insulators and wiring harness routing.
Look for signs of oxidation.
Physical inspection
While manipulating the wiring harness, use the diagnostic tool to note any change in fault status from stored to
present.
Make sure that the connectors are properly locked.
Apply light pressure to the connectors.
cardiagn.com
Twist the wiring harness.
If there is a change in status, try to locate the source of the fault.
Inspection of each component

Disconnect the connectors and check the appearance of the clips and tabs, as well as the crimping (no crimping on
the insulating section).
Make sure that the clips and tabs are properly locked in the sockets.
Check that no clips or tabs have been dislodged during connection.
Check the clip contact pressure using an appropriate model of tab.
Continuity, insulation and resistance check

Check the continuity of entire lines, then section by section.
Look for a short circuit to earth, to + 12 V or to another wire.
If a fault is detected, repair or replace the wiring harness.

5. FAULT FINDING LOG
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 procedure, enables you to keep
track of the procedure which is carried out. It is an essential document when consulting the
IMPORTANT! 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.
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.

Fault finding - System operation
General operation
The Protection and Switching Unit is involved in the following functions:

– access - security,
– air conditioning,
– lighting,
– wipers,
– charge circuit,
– oil pressure detection,
– electric power distribution.
1 - Electric power distribution
A main function of the Protection and Switching Unit is to switch and distribute the power supply to the vehicle's
systems, actuators or computers.
Part of this function is handled within the unit, but it is not electronically controlled by the computer.
+ 12 V battery feed
cardiagn.com
The Protection and Switching Unit receives power from the battery via the 2 track connector CL and redistributes the
+ 12 V supply.
+ 12 V After ignition feed

The UCH sends the Protection and Switching Unit the + 12 V after ignition feed request via the multiplex network.
When the Protection and Switching Unit receives this request, it actuates the After ignition relay unconditionally. The
signal is distributed to the sensors, actuators and computers.
2 - Charge circuit
One of the main functions of the Protection and Switching Unit is managing the charge circuit.
Purpose and components:
The main function of the charge circuit is to produce and distribute the electrical energy required to operate the
various electrical consumers on the vehicle (computers, lights, etc.).
The charge circuit also enables the engine to be started, and is essentially made up of a battery, an alternator and a
starter.
a) Battery
The principal purpose of the battery is to provide the powerful current briefly required by the starter motor to start the
engine. For optimum starting, the current supplied by the battery must be sent to the starter motor with minimum
loss. To ensure a minimal loss of current at the starter, the electrical connections (wires, terminals, connectors, etc.)
must be in good condition.
When the engine is not running, the battery must feed the accessories that operate constantly, even with the ignition
switched off, such as the alarm, radio codes, computers, etc.
Note:
A battery must always be fully charged, even when stored.
– PR004 Battery voltage represents the Protection and Switching Unit feed voltage.
– PR008 Battery voltage after rest represents the battery charge status. If PR008 is less than 12.1 V (battery
discharged) during the first few miles, a message "Recharge battery" is displayed on the instrument panel.

87G-7
Vdiag No.: 44
Fault finding - System operation 87G
Depending on the battery charge status, the operating phase and the battery temperature, the Protection and
Switching Unit determines what the voltage across the battery terminals should be.
To obtain this voltage, the Protection and Switching Unit actuates the alternator.
b) Alternator
The alternator only operates when the engine is running. The function of the alternator is to recharge the battery and,
at the same time, to supply the electrical power needed to operate all the vehicle's electrical equipment.
The Protection and Switching Unit is linked to the alternator by a serial connection. The Protection and Switching
Unit and the alternator communicate via this connection.
Alternator management is therefore completely new in relation to previous Renault vehicles.

The Protection and Switching Unit intelligently manages the alternator regulation voltage according to the engine
phase, the battery charge and the temperature.
The alternator sends the Protection and Switching Unit the following signals:
– Type of alternator: the Protection and Switching Unit configures itself according to the alternator specifications.
cardiagn.com
The Protection and Switching Unit can detect electrical or communication faults on this connection and signal them
using the fault DF007 UPC-Alternator connection.
When the battery charge and PR008 Battery voltage after rest decline, the Protection and Switching Unit can
temporarily increase the alternator voltage by 1 V for a duration of 30 minutes after starting.
Before the engine is started and during starting, the alternator voltage is fixed at 10.6 V.
A maximum of 30 seconds after the engine is started, the Protection and Switching Unit sets the alternator voltage
at the optimum calculated value.
The UPC sends the alternator charge to the injection to regulate the idling speed.
c) Starter
This turns the engine over to make it start, and requires a very powerful electric current, which the battery must be
able to supply.
The computer receives the starter activation request via the multiplex network from:
– injection,
– UCH,
– the automatic gearbox,
(see ET010 "Starting conditions met")
The computer controls the starter relay.
In the event of a fault with the starter, refer to section 16A, Starter - Charging.
3 - Access-safety
Under the Access - Security function, the Protection and Switching Unit is involved in the starting sub-function. The
computer:
– receives the starter activation request from the UCH via the multiplex network,
– controls the starter relay,
– inhibits or cuts out this relay control according to a signal prohibiting starting which is sent by the injection
computer or gearbox controlled via the multiplex network (see MR 385 87B, Passenger compartment
connection unit, Fault finding, System operation).

4 - Air conditioning
To understand the operation of this function and the role of the Protection and Switching Unit in the control of this
function (see 62A, Air conditioning).
Cold loop:
The computer receives the compressor switch-on request from the injection via the multiplex network.
The computer controls the compressor clutch engagement relay.
Heating:
The computer manages the alternator charge and sends back the signal over the multiplex network.
The computer also controls the rear screen de-icing.
5 - Exterior lighting
The Protection and Switching Unit receives lighting requests from the UCH via the multiplex network.
The computer then switches the power relays:

– front and rear side lights,
cardiagn.com
– dipped headlights,
– main beam headlights,
– front fog light,
– registration plate light,
– headlight beam adjustment,
– backlighting of controls in the passenger compartment.
For the operation of this function and the role of the Protection and Switching Unit in the control of this function, (see
MR 387 80D, Lighting Fault finding: System operation).
6 - Wipers
The Protection and Switching Unit receives wiping requests from the UCH via the multiplex network.
The computer then switches the power relays:

– low speed, high speed or intermittent windscreen wiper,
– headlight washers pump relay.
– The Protection and Switching Unit also receives the windscreen wiper park position signal. Using this signal, the
computer can determine whether the blade is jammed, and decide whether to stop the wiper motor to protect it.
For the operation of this function and the role of the Protection and Switching Unit in the control of this function, (see
MR 387 85A, Wipers - Washing Fault finding: System operation).
7 - Oil pressure detection
The Protection and Switching Unit receives the oil pressure sensor signal and distributes it over the multiplex
network.
8 - Reverse gear engaged signal
The Protection and Switching Unit receives the reverse gear position sensor signal and distributes it over the
multiplex network.
