NOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to stored faults:
Apply this fault finding procedure if the fault appears as present or stored again after:
–clearing the fault and switching the ignition off then back on.
If the fault is stored: clear the fault, switch off the ignition and disconnect the climate control computer supply 
fuse.
–Refit the fuse and switch the ignition back on.
–Start the engine and switch on the air conditioning.
If the fault reappears as stored: contact your Techline.
If the fault does not reappear: leave the air conditioning switched on and select various ventilation and air 
distribution settings to check that the system is working correctly.
If the fault is present: contact your Techline.
AFTER REPAIRIf the computer has been replaced (at the request of the Techline): reconfigure the 
computer (see section Configurations and Programming).
Deal with any other faults.

PR001
INTERIOR TEMPERATURE
NOTESNone.
The climate control computer receives the interior temperature signal through a wire connection.
To ensure this parameter is correct (without using a thermometer), simply read the temperature information 
when the vehicle is cold (in the morning). The interior temperature, the exterior temperature and the engine 
coolant temperature should be practically the same.
Another way of checking whether this sensor is correct is to check the resistance value of the sensor according 
to temperature: refer to the electrical specifications of the sensor in the Help section.
If the temperature displayed by this parameter seems to be incorrect, apply the fault finding procedure for fault: 
DF007 Interior temperature sensor circuit.
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.

The following table gives the percentages by which the air distribution motor is controlled as well as the opening 
status of the lower flaps (footwell flap and under seat duct flap). To view the lower flaps, remove the right-hand and 
left-hand lower air ducts.
Values should be checked with the engine switched off and the air conditioning in manual mode (tolerance ± 5%).PR011

BLOWN AIR TEMPERATURE SETTING
NOTESNone.
This parameter is used to control the temperature inside the passenger compartment. This setting is calculated 
by the climate control computer according to interior temperature, exterior temperature and coolant 
temperature.
This setting is used to control the mixing motor and the request to operate the passenger compartment air 
heating resistors (to reach the temperature requested by the user as quickly as possible in order to optimise 
passenger compartment comfort quickly).
The following conditions must be satisfied to allow the UCH to control the passenger compartment air heating 
resistors:
–Engine running,
–Passenger compartment blower running (minimum speed 1),
–User temperature setting above 20 ˚C (or automatic mode requested),
–Blown air temperature setting above 65 ˚C,
–Interior temperature below 10 ˚C,
–Exterior temperature below 5 ˚C,
–Engine coolant temperature below 65 ˚C,
–Injection authorisation (ET019 Number of RCHs authorised by injection system < at 1),
–Alternator authorisation (ET018 Number of RCHs authorised by alternator < at 1).
Note:
–Statuses ET017, ET018 and ET019 are indicated by the UCH (see conformity check of air conditioning 
function: Section 62A).
–The values given below are average values. The UCH calculates the number of passenger compartment 
heating resistors to trigger (ET017 number of RCH required).
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.

Fault finding – Conformity check
PASSENGER COMPARTMENT VENTILATION SUB-FUNCTION
NOTESOnly carry out this conformity check after a full check with the diagnostic tool (fault 
reading and configuration checks).
Test conditions: engine off, ignition on (forced 12  V After ignition).
Air conditioning off 
(air conditioning compressor not triggered).
Special note:
The various conformity checks
 for the air conditioning function are explained in the 
Introduction section.
Note:
–Read the parameters when the vehicle is cold (in the morning) to check the 
conformity of the temperature parameters (without thermometer). The two 
temperatures should be practically the same (as should the coolant temperature 
given by the injection system).
–The invalid values given in this check correspond to the value sent by the diagnostic 
tool (substitute value) when the sensor in question is faulty. A sensor fault can be 
detected when these invalid values are displayed (this is an important point for 
sensors on which fault finding cannot be performed, e.g. exterior temperature 
sensor).
