1. SCOPE OF THIS DOCUMENT
This document presents the fault finding procedures applicable to all computers with the following specifications:
2. PREREQUISITES FOR FAULT FINDING
Documentation type

–Assisted fault finding (integrated into the diagnostic tool), Dialogys.
Wiring Diagrams:
–Visu-Schéma.
Type of diagnostic tools
–CLIP + multiplex line sensor
Special tooling required
3. REMINDERS
Procedure for Mégane 2
To carry out fault finding on the vehicle's computers, switch the ignition to fault finding mode (forced + after ignition).
Proceed as follows:
–Put the vehicle card in the card reader.
–Press and hold Start button (longer than 5 seconds) with start-up conditions not fulfilled.
–connect the diagnostic tool and perform the required operations.
To cut off the + after ignition feed, proceed as follows:
–disconnect the diagnostic tool,
–press the Start button twice briefly (less than 3 seconds),
–ensure that the + after ignition feed has been cut off by checking that the computer indicator lights on the
instrument panel have gone out.
Procedure for Logan
To run fault finding on the vehicle computers, switch on the ignition. Connect the diagnostic tool and perform the
required operations.Vehicle (s): LOGAN and MEGANE 2

Note:
The left-hand and right-hand xenon bulb computers are powered when the dipped headlights are lit.
Fault finding on these computers is therefore not possible until after the ignition has been switched on in
diagnostic mode (forced + after ignition) and the dipped beam headlights have been switched on.

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 damaged wiring under the bonnet and in the passenger compartment.
●carefully check the fuses, insulation and the correct routing of the wiring.
●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 the entire lines, then section by section.
●look for a short circuit to earth, to + 12V or with another wire.
If a fault is detected, apply the associated fault finding procedure and repair or replace the wiring.

Fault finding - System operation
LPG 3000
Program No: AB
Vdiag No: 08/10
17C
The GAS 3000 computer manages "gas" actuator control, i.e. the "gas" injectors, the gas system relays and solenoid
valves, the fuel pump cut-off relay and the management of the fuel sender. Before switching to "Gas" mode, the
computer always checks that the pressure and the temperature of the gas are correct and that the "gas" solenoid
valves are open.
The combustible material is stored in an independent toric tank. LPG is stored in a semi-gaseous state at a pressure
of approximately 15 bar.
CNG is stored in a cylindrical tank in a gaseous state at a pressure of approximately 200 bar, and is transported to
the expansion valve/reducer via a rigid high pressure pipe. The rest of the system is a low pressure pipe going from
the expansion valve/reducer to the injectors. For CNG, there is a gas filter between the expansion valve and the rail.
Malfunctions / Special cases
These are characterised by operation in Petrol mode, although the driver has selected LPG mode.
An operational fault must be caused by the LPG system if it cannot be reproduced in Petrol mode.
Forced Petrol mode when LPG is faulty.
The level 1 warning light is controlled by the petrol injection computer; the gas warning light is controlled by the GAS
3000 computer.
The system automatically switches to "petrol" mode when the tank is empty or when the conditions allowing
operation in "gas" mode are not satisfied.

Pressing the button determines which gauge is displayed ("petrol" level or "gas" level).
Illumination of the warning light for minimum gauge level depends only on the actual level of fuel in the tank.Note:
Before carrying out any work on the LPG system, check that the vehicle operates correctly in Petrol
mode.

Fault finding - Replacement of components
COMPUTER REPLACEMENT OR REPROGRAMMING PROCEDURE
The system can be programmed and reprogrammed via the diagnostic socket using the RENAULT CLIP diagnostic
tool (see Technical Note 3585A or follow the instructions provided by the diagnostic tool).
After reprogramming or replacing the computer:
–Switch the ignition off and then on again.
–Start and run the engine in LPG mode then stop the engine (to initialise the computer) and wait for
30 seconds.
–Switch on the ignition and use the diagnostic tool to carry out the following steps:
–use command VP001 Write VIN,
–after the injection has been reprogrammed, stored faults may appear on other computers. Clear the memories of
these computers,
–carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool. IMPORTANT
–switch on the diagnostic tool (mains or cigarette lighter supply),
–connect a battery charger,
–shut down all the electrical consumers (lights, interior lights, air conditioning, radio CD, etc.),
–wait for the engine to cool down (coolant temperature below 60 °C and air temperature below 50 °C).

2.DEF: Non-compliance with emission control standards
NOTESPriority when dealing with a number of faults:
If faults DF021 LPG tank solenoid valve relay circuit or fault DF018 + After ignition
feed supply are present or stored, deal with these faults first.
Special note:
As soon as the LPG computer receives this signal, engine operation is prohibited.
If the vehicle has been involved in an accident:
Carry out any necessary repairs,
–clear the fault,
–switch off the ignition,
–wait for the engine immobiliser indicator light to flash,
–switch on the ignition,
If the fault does not recur, end the fault finding procedure.
If the fault recurs, carry out fault finding on the AIRBAG computer.
If the vehicle has not been involved in an accident:
Check for + 12V on track 3 of the fuel pump cut-off relay and the LPG tank relay.
Repair if necessary.
AFTER REPAIRDeal with any faults displayed by the diagnostic tool.
Clear the computer memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.
