Fault finding – System operation and track allocation
System operation
The manual heating and ventilation system does not have a computer. It consists solely of a control panel from which
the compressor (controlled by the Protection and Switching Unit and injection), the passenger compartment heating
resistors (controlled by the UCH with permission from the Protection and Switching Unit and injection) and rear de-
icer (managed by the Protection and Switching Unit) are started as explained in the synopsis of heating and
ventilation system operation in Section 62A.
The panel, by means of cables, also controls the air distribution flaps, air distribution and recycling, as well as fan
assembly speed through a connecting wire and resistor unit.

ALP 2 Air distribution fault
NOTESNone.
Make sure the air circuit (cabin filter, scuttle panel grille, air ducts etc.) is not blocked.
Ensure that the passenger compartment ventilator fan is in good condition.
If necessary, repair, clean or replace the cabin filter.
Ensure that the passenger compartment fan unit is properly sealed.
Repair if necessary.
Switch the front passenger compartment fan to
full, the temperature control to maximum heat or
maximum cold, and move the air distribution
control.
Check that the air outlet is the one selected.
Has the customer complaint been
confirmed?
NO
Remove the dashboard and visually check that
moving the control alters the position of the
distribution flaps.
Is there movement?
NO
The air distribution is operating
correctly.
If necessary, explain how the system
works to the customer again.
Make sure the distribution flaps are
in good condition, the footwell
distribution flap linkages are in
position, and that there is no
mechanical obstruction.
If necessary, recondition, clean or
replace the heating and ventilation
unit.
YES
YES
AFTER REPAIRCheck that the system is operating correctly.

ALP 11 Unpleasant odours in the passenger compartment
NOTESNone.
Check that the cabin filter is not blocked or damaged.
Replace it if necessary.
Is the fault still present?
YES
Check that the condensation evacuation pipe
(water from the evaporator) is not blocked.
Repair if necessary.
Is the fault still present?
YES
Check the sealing of the heating unit in relation to the
engine compartment:
–Foam seal on the heater matrix coolant pipes fitted and
in good condition.
–Rubber seal on the radiator tank fitted and in good
condition (seal under the bonnet separating the engine
compartment from the windscreen aperture).
–Water evacuation valve on the radiator tank fitted and in
good condition.
Repair if necessary.
Is the fault still present?
YES
Remove the cabin filter to apply air conditioning system
cleaner using an extension pipe on the evaporator.
Spray the entire contents of the aerosol.
Leave the product to work for 15 minutes.

ALP 15 Passenger compartment ventilation noises
NOTESOnly deal with this customer complaint after a full check with the diagnostic tool
(fault reading and configuration checks).
The aim of the following operations is to check and, if necessary, eliminate any foreign bodies (leaves,
insects, other, etc.) in:
–the passenger compartment air inlet,
–the cabin filter housing,
–the housing and on the fan assembly.
Check the passenger compartment air inlet and the cabin filter housing:
Remove:
–the scuttle panel grille (see MR 371 Bodywork, 55A, Exterior equipment, Scuttle panel grille: Removal -
Refitting),
–the air filter access panel,
–the scuttle panel partition,
–the cabin filter.
Check that there are no foreign bodies (leaves, insects, other, etc.) and, if necessary, clean the passenger
compartment air inlet and the cabin filter housing.
Refit:
–the cabin filter,
–the scuttle panel partition,
–the air filter access panel,
the scuttle panel grille (see MR 371 Bodywork, 55A, Exterior equipment, Scuttle panel grille: Removal -
Refitting).
Check the housing and the fan assembly:
Remove the fan assembly (see MR 370 Mechanical, 61A, Heating, Fan assembly: Removal - Refitting).
Check that there are no foreign bodies (leaves, insects, other, etc.) and, if necessary, clean the fan assembly
housing.
Check that there are no foreign bodies (leaves, insects, other, etc.) and, if necessary, clean the fan assembly.
Refit the fan assembly (see MR 370 Mechanical, 61A, Heating, Fan assembly: Removal - Refitting).
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a complete check using the diagnostic tool.
