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 switched on
after the + after ignition feed (without any system components being active).
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 complaints.
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:
–make sure that the battery is properly charged to avoid damaging the computers with a low load,
–use the appropriate tools.
–It is forbidden to carry out a road test with the diagnostic tool in dialogue with the ECU because
the ABS and Electronic Brake Distribution functions are deactivated. Braking pressure is
identical on both vehicle axles (risk of a spin under heavy braking). 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 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 MANDATORY TO FILL OUT A FAULT FINDING LOG EACH TIME FAULT FINDING
IS CARRIED OUT.

Vdiag No.: 0C, 0D, 0E, 0FANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
Fault finding - System operation
The main functions of ABS on this vehicle are the electronic balancing of front and rear braking by controlling rear
wheel slip and preventing the brakes from locking by controlling the slipping of all four wheels.
The system also supplies the other computers with information on the vehicle speed via a wire connection for the
discharge bulbs, the radio and the electric sunroof, and via the multiplex network for the other computers. The ABS
computer supplies the multiplex network with the odometry for the instrument panel and navigation system. If heavy
braking produces very rapid deceleration, the ABS computer sends out a request to the UCH via the multiplex network
to ask it to switch on the hazard warning lights (depending on the law in the relevant country).

Fault finding - Configurations and programming
Settings
VP001: Write VIN.
This command allows the vehicle identification number to be entered into the computer. Use this
command each time the computer is replaced. The VIN number (VF...) can be found on the
manufacturer's plate on the front right-hand door pillar and on the body panel under the left-hand side
of the windscreen.
VP004: Vehicle parameters.
This command is used to configure the engine type + braking definition + body type.
Select command VP004 on the diagnostic tool (it is imperative to check that the variants selected
correspond to the vehicle type).
VP006: Write date of the last After-Sales service.
Whenever the ABS system is worked on in the shop, the date must be entered.
Select command VP006 on the diagnostic tool.
Enter the operation date with the tool keyboard.
VP007: Tachometric index.
This command is used to program the computer memory with the index required to calculate vehicle
speed from the speed at which the wheels turn.
The BOSCH ABS 8.0 computer supplies the vehicle speed signal to all vehicle systems that use this
information (instrument panel, engine management, etc.). This vehicle speed signal replaces the one
supplied by the speed sensor located on the gearbox. The ABS computer calculates the vehicle speed
from the speed of the wheels and the circumference of the tyres fitted on the vehicle.
Note:
The vehicle speed is sent by wire (track 23) to the xenon bulb computer, radio and electric sunroof, and
via the multiplex network to the other computers.
The tyre circumference must be programmed into the memory of a new computer. This consists
of entering a number X using the VP007 "Tachometric index" command on the diagnostic tool.
Once the number has been entered using the VP007 command, delete the fault in the computer memory
and then switch off the ignition. Use the parameter PR030 to check that the index entered has been
stored correctly.
VP032: Vehicle speed at initialisation.
Vehicle speed transmitted via the multiplex network when the computer is initialised.
Select "Type 1" or "Type 2" according to the information supplied by the tool.
