Note:
The left and right-hand xenon bulb computers are supplied when the dipped headlights are lit. Therefore fault
finding can only be carried out on them after the ignition has been switched on in fault finding mode (forced + after
ignition feed) and the dipped headlights have been switched on.

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 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 proper tools.
–It is forbidden to carry out a road test while the diagnostic tool is communicating with the computer,
because the ABS and Electronic Braking Distribution (EBD) functions are deactivated. Braking
pressure is identical on both vehicle axles (risk of a spin under heavy braking). 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 MANDATORY TO FILL OUT A FAULT FINDING LOG EACH TIME FAULT FINDING IS
CARRIED OUT.

BOSCH 8.0 ESP
Vdiag No.: 08, 09, 0A,
0B, 11, 12ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
The ESP system on this vehicle incorporates the following functions:
–The ABS (anti-lock braking system). The main functions of the ABS system are electronic front and rear braking
distribution (EBD) by controlling rear wheel slip, and preventing the wheels from locking by controlling the slipping
of all four wheels.
–MSR (engine torque control). Traction control on the driven wheels under no load by limiting the engine braking.
–ASR (traction control). It limits skidding of the drive wheels during starting or acceleration phases by limiting the
engine torque and braking the wheel(s) which are skidding.
–ESP (electronic stability program). Electronic stability program limiting oversteer or understeer by braking certain
wheels and controlling the engine torque.
–CSV (understeer control). Specific control of situations involving pronounced understeer by significant vehicle
braking in conjunction with a specific dynamic stability program.
–AUTOMATIC LIGHTING OF HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS. Generation on the CAN network, for the UCH, of a
request for switching on the hazard warning lights in case of braking causing a very hard deceleration (according
to the legislation of the country).
–AUTOMATIC BRAKE LIGHTS SWITCH-ON. In the event of understeer control (CSV only), the ESP computer
switches on the brake lights, via a relay, to give warning of severe deceleration generated by the system (according
to national legislation).
The system also supplies the other computers with information on the vehicle speed via a wire connection for the
xenon bulbs, the radio and the electric sunroof, and via the multiplex network for the other computers. The ABS/ESP
computer provides the odometry for the instrument panel and navigation aid over the multiplex network.
IDENTIFICATION
From the outside, two factors distinguish an ABS unit from an ABS/ESP unit:
–The size of the units (the ABS/ESP unit is bigger than the ABS) unit. The ABS unit has 8 solenoid valves
and the ABS/ESP unit has 12.
–The number of computer tracks (the ABS computer has 26 tracks and the ABS/ESP computer has
46 tracks).
