Fault finding - System operation
Instrument panel functions (entry level and mid-range versions):
The instrument panel allows:
–display by needle gauge of the following information:
–Vehicle speed
–Rev counter
–Fuel gauge
–Engine coolant temperature
–Management of 20 warning/indicator lights
–Alphanumeric display of the following information:
–Total and trip mileage
–Oil level
–Messages (68 messages)
–Keyless vehicle messages
–Warning messages
–Management of a multifunction buzzer:
The buzzer is used for the following functions:
–Indicating the operation of the direction indicators.
–Signalling that the lights have been left on.
–Indicating that the driver's or passenger's seat belts are not fastened when driving.
–Indicating that a door or the tailgate is not correctly closed.
–Signalling that the handbrake is on.
–Indicating the low fuel warning.
–Indicating that a speed has been exceeded, for Arabian versions, where an overspeed warning
is legally required.
–Indicating to the driver that the automatic locking when driving has been activated/deactivated.
The following buzzers can sound:
–Side lights on
–Direction indicators
–Management and trip computer display:
–Trip meter
–Fuel consumed
–Average fuel consumption
–Instantaneous fuel consumption
–Fuel range in kilometres and miles
–Distance travelled in kilometres and miles
–Average speed
–Oil service interval in kilometres
–Oil service interval in time
–Programmed speed (if the cruise control and speed limiter feature is present).
–Instrument panel dimmer: when the lights are on, the brightness of the instrument panel can be adjusted
using a button located on the instrument panel.
–In the event that the childproof lock system is not working, the buzzer will sound and a warning message
will appear on the instrument panel.
In vdiag 08 (with program version 040B) and vdiag 0C, the instrument panel can manage a personalised oil service
interval (known as the OCS) by detecting premature oil wear (depending on the engine). If the engine has this oil
wear detection management function, the oil service interval will initially be increased. The oil service interval could
however decrease more quickly if a “severe” type of driving (urban driving, diving in traffic jams, etc.) is detected by
the injection computer. The instrument panel will display a message to request that an oil service be performed
quickly, without necessarily displaying a warning message beforehand.

*Miles Per HourLC no. CF no. Configuration Note:
LC049 Type of fuelPetrol: check that the rev counter indicates
7000 rpm as the maximum value.
Diesel: check that the rev counter indicates
6000 rpm as the maximum value and that the
diesel heater plugs “on” indicator light comes
on when the ignition is switched on.
IMPORTANT
it is essential to check this, as it
determines whether the gauges are
operating correctly.
LC051 CF140 Unit of distance
LC052 CF141 Overspeed function - ArabiaWhen driving at speeds greater than
78 mph (130 km/h), the buzzer should sound.
LC054 CF143Unit of measurement for
consumptionLitres/ 100 km (default) - Europe
Miles / gallon - UK
km / l - Brazil
LC056 CF145 Tyre pressure monitorCheck for specific valves.
If the vehicle is equipped with a tyre pressure
monitor: check that the vehicle outline does
not show wheels which are absent and that
there is no “No tyre sensors” message
(message indicating the tyre pressure
monitoring frames are absent).
LC059 CF148 Automatic headlightingCheck for a brightness sensor.
Disconnect the automatic headlights, and
check that the "Auto Headlights Off" message
is displayed.

Special features for English versions
The newly supplied instrument panel is configured, by default, in kilometres.
In addition to the language configuration CF002 Language setting, carry out the calculation below to allow
the instrument panel to display consistent values between the distance before next oil change and the
desired oil change frequency.
To display the oil change frequency in miles, multiply the value in miles indicated in the Maintenance
booklet by 10 then divide by 6, to find the exact figure in kilometres.
After the value has been entered, the computer automatically performs the conversion into miles for the
oil service interval.
It is imperative to use the following procedure for correct functioning of the range and oil change
frequency.
Example: 18,000 miles x 10 = 180 000 miles, then divide by 6 = 30,000 km (Enter 30)
Check by reading parameter PR005 Oil change frequency in km.
A) Program the distance to next oil service in kilometres using command VP008 Distance to next oil
service: current value in KM.
Check by reading parameter PR007 Distance to next oil service: current value in KM.
B) Program the oil change frequency in months using command VP007 Oil change frequency in
months.
Check by reading parameter PR006 Oil change frequency in months.
C)Program the oil service interval in months using command VP009 Oil service interval: actual value in
months.
Check by reading parameter PR008 Oil service interval: actual value in months.
D) Program the fuel sender using command VP011 Fuel sender calibration.
There are 2 pieces of information to provide:
–Type of fuel (check by reading configuration LC049).
–Fuel level indicator:
–analogue (needle display),
–digital (bargraph display).

NOTESSpecial note:
The fault is declared present if the fuel sender resistance is
greater than 350 Ω.
Manipulate the wiring harness between the instrument panel and the fuel sender in order to produce a change in
fault status (Present → Stored).
Look for possible damage to the harness, and check the connection and condition of the fuel sender and its
connections.
If there is a repair method (see Technical note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for
repair) repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Check the continuity of the following connections:
Fuel sender track 2 track 15, Grey instrument panel connector
Fuel sender track 4 track 2, Grey instrument panel connector
If there is a repair method (see Technical note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for
repair) repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Measure the resistance between tracks 4 and 2 of the fuel sender.
Replace the fuel sender if the resistance value is not: 290 Ω fuel tank in reserve
54 Ω fuel tank full
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRDeal with any faults declared by the diagnostic tool.
Clear the computer memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.

NOTESThe fault is declared present if the fuel sender resistance is
less than 5 Ω.
Manipulate the wiring harness between the instrument panel and the fuel sender in order to produce a change in
fault status (Present → Stored).
Look for possible damage to the harness, and check the connection and condition of the fuel sender and its
connections.
If there is a repair method (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for
repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Disconnect the fuel sender connector and check for a change in fault status.
If the fault remains in short circuit, check the insulation and continuity of the following connections, with the
connector disconnected:
Fuel sender connector track 2 track 15, Grey instrument panel connector
Fuel sender connector track 4 track 2, Grey instrument panel connector
If there is a repair method (see Technical note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for
repair) repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
If the fault becomes an open circuit fault, move to the next step of the fault finding.
Measure the resistance between tracks 4 and 2 of the fuel sender.
Replace the fuel sender if the resistance value is not: 290 Ω fuel tank in reserve
54 Ω fuel tank full
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRDeal with any faults displayed by the diagnostic tool.
Clear the computer memory.

CURRENT SETPOINT
NOTESWith the engine idling, the flow should be around 0.
Vary the engine speed to confirm the increase in flow.
Note: A fault with the fuel flow signal causes inconsistencies in the operation of the
trip computer.
Test the multiplex network and the injection (see 88B Multiplexing, 13B Diesel injection and 17B Petrol
injection).
AFTER REPAIRCarry out another fault finding check on the system.
Deal with any other faults.
Clear the stored faults.
