ESTABLISHING XR25 / HEATING-VENTILATION CONTROL UNIT DIALOGUE
- Connect the XR25 to the diagnostic socket.
- ISO selector on S8
- Enter D17 n.61
PRECAUTION :
When carrying out checks using a multimeter, avoid using a contact tip on the connectors the size of which
could damage the clips and result in poor contact.
ERASING THE MEMORY:
After repairing the air conditioning system, enter G0** on the XR25 keypad to erase the fault stored.

Advise the customer how to use the heating
system correctly
(eg. : Do not place the passenger
compartment fan on full when starting from
cold, turn it up gradually instead).
Carry out a road test to observe the customer
complaints.
Is the test satisfactory?

Non regulated air conditioning.
Visually check that
the action of the control moves
the mixing flap.
Does the flap move?
Visually check
whether the flap travel is complete.
Is it complete?
Check the cooling circuit
(correct filling and bleeding),
the condition of the circuit (pipes,
connections, conformity
of the circuit...).
Repair if necessary.
Does the fault persist?
Readjust the control cable
(cable which controls the sprockets to the
right of the air distribution unit).

Non regulated air conditioning.
The passenger compartment fan operates.
Check that left-hand bargraph 13 is
extinguished. This relates to the inhibiting of
heating/ventilation/air conditioning by the
injection or the automatic gearbox.
Is this bargraph extinguished?
Using the XR25, measure the pressures of the
coolant circuit by entering #16 or use
pressure gauges.
The pressures should be:
- high pressure < 28 bars,
- low pressure > 2 bars.
Is this correct?
Check that the components which were removed are connected correctly.
Check that the system operates correctly.

Does the compressor operate?
Connect the XR25 and enter G21*
(direct compressor control).
Does the compressor operate?
Check the pressure of the coolant circuit.
The compressor should cut in for:
- low pressure≥ 2 bars,
- high pressure≤ 28 bars.
Is this correct?
Check the wiring between
the heating and ventilation computer
and the compressor clutch.
Repair if necessary.
Check that the components which were removed are connected correctly.
