Faults
Faults are declared present or stored (depending on whether they appeared in a certain context and have
disappeared since, or whether they remain present but are not diagnosed within the current context).
The present or stored status of faults should be considered when using the diagnostic tool after the + after ignition
feed is switched on (without any action on the system components).
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 Notes section.
If the fault is confirmed when the instructions 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 when 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 complaints.
A synopsis of the general procedure to follow is provided on the following page in the
form of a flow chart.

LEVER POSITION SWITCH CIRCUIT
1.DEF: Open circuit or short circuit
NOTESConditions for applying fault finding procedures to stored faults:
The fault is declared present after:
–in the event of open circuit or short circuit-:
–+ after ignition feed and change of lever position.
–in the event of short circuit+:
–+ after ignition feed, initial lever position: Position "P", "R", "N" or "D".
Effect on system:

the lever position becomes DRIVE (internal software variable) irrespective of the fault.
–If the fault is present and the lever in position "P", the transmission is in "N", hydraulic
neutral.
–If the fault is present and the lever in position "R", the transmission is in "R", hydraulic
reverse.
–If the fault is present and the lever in position "N", the transmission is in "N", hydraulic
neutral.
–If the fault is present and the lever in position "D", the transmission is in "D", hydraulic
forward gear.
lock-up is inhibited.
Customer complaint:
No lever position display on the instrument panel following fault confirmation and
starting impossible.
If the engine is already running when the fault occurs, there is jolting when shifting from
"P" or "N" to "R" or "D".
Fault warning light comes on.
Use the Wiring Diagrams Technical Note, SCENIC II ph2.
Note:
It is possible to produce this fault if the driver or operator voluntarily keep the lever between two normal positions
for longer than 2 seconds.
