Faults
Faults are declared as either present or stored (depending on whether they appeared in a certain context and have
disappeared since, or whether they remain present but have not been diagnosed within the current context).
The present or stored status of faults should be taken into consideration when the diagnostic tool is used following
the + after ignition supply being switched on (without operating 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 instructions in the Notes section.
If the fault is confirmed when the instructions in the Notes section 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 for these lines (for oxidation, bent pins, etc.),
–the resistance of the component detected as faulty,
–the condition of the wires (melted or split insulation, wear).
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 complaint.
A synopsis of the general procedure to follow is provided on the following page
in the form of a flow chart.

4. FAULT FINDING PROCEDURE (continued)
Wiring check
Fault finding problems
Disconnecting the connectors and/or manipulating 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.
Tactile 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.
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.
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
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 ADVICE
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 appropriate tools,
–do not touch the xenon bulbs, and do not work on the COSLAD system when it is in operation, as the voltage can
be above 20,000 V. IMPORTANTIMPORTANT
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
manufacturer.
IT IS THEREFORE ESSENTIAL THAT THE FAULT FINDING LOG IS FILLED OUT EVERY TIME IT IS
REQUESTED BY TECHLINE OR THE WARRANT RETURNS DEPARTMENT.

Fault finding - System operation
Description of operation
The system consists of four sensors built into the rear bumper, a computer and a buzzer.
The system assists the driver during parking manoeuvres by warning of any obstacles to the rear of the vehicle.
–The sensors and the computer calculate the distance between the vehicle and any obstacles. The sensors operate
over a distance range from 20 - 30 cm minimum to 150 cm maximum.
–The driver is informed of the distances by a buzzer.
–The system only works when the vehicle is in reverse gear. Activation is indicated by a brief 0.5 second
activation sound.
The buzzer is activated when the vehicle is 150 cm from the obstacle. As the distance diminishes, the frequency of
the buzzer increases. When the distance reaches 20 - 30 cm, the buzzer becomes continuous.
–The system can only be activated in + after ignition feed.
DEACTIVATING THE SYSTEM:
–The parking distance control can be deactivated in two ways:
–Temporary deactivation: briefly pressing (1 second) the parking distance control switch on the dashboard
deactivates the system (the red warning light on the switch comes on). The function can be switched on again by
pressing briefly for a second time (the red indicator light on the switch goes out) or by switching the ignition off and
back on.
–Permanent deactivation: the parking distance control system can be deactivated for a longer period by pressing
and holding (for approximately 3 seconds) the parking distance control switch on the dashboard (the red warning
light on the switch comes on). The function can be switched on again only by pressing and holding the switch
again (the red warning light on the switch goes out).
Fault finding:
A low pitched, 5-second continuous warning sound upon switching on the ignition informs the driver that a
system fault has occurred.Note:
Using the diagnostic tool statuses, it is possible to find out the function status (ready, detecting, suspended or
disabled) by using status ET003 Parking distance control function (see conformity check or the relevant
status interpretation).
