a) The computer
– Determines the value of injection pressure necessary for the engine to operate correctly and then controls the
pressure regulator.
– It checks that the pressure value is correct by analysing the value transmitted by the pressure sensor located on
the rail.
– It determines the injection timing required to deliver the right quantity of diesel fuel and the moment when injection
should start.
– Controls each injector electrically and individually after determining these two values.
The flow injected into the engine is determined by:
– the duration of injector control,
– the rail pressure (regulated by the computer),
– the injector opening and closing speed,
– the needle stroke (determined by a constant for the type of injector),
– the nominal hydraulic flow of the injector (specific to each injector).
The computer manages:
– idling regulation,
– exhaust gas flow reinjection to the inlet,
– fuel supply check (advance, flow and rail pressure),
– the fan assembly via the Protection and Switching Unit (centralised coolant temperature management
function),
– the air conditioning (cold loop function),
– the cruise control/speed limiter function,
– the pre-postheating control.
– the fault warning lights via the multiplex network.
The high pressure pump is supplied at low pressure by an integrated low-pressure pump (transfer pump).
It supplies the rail, the pressure of which is controlled by the fuel flow actuator for charging, and for discharging by
the injector valves. This compensates for pressure drops.
The fuel flow actuator enables the high pressure pump to supply the exact quantity of diesel fuel required to maintain
the rail pressure. This component minimises the heat generated and improves engine output.
In order to discharge the rail using the injector valves, the valves are controlled by brief electrical pulses which are:
– short enough not to open the injector (passing through the feedback circuit from the injectors),
– long enough to open the valves and discharge the rail.

b) Functions included
Air conditioning management assistance
In the case of vehicles with climate control, the EDC16 system has the option of deactivating the air conditioning via
the UCH, under certain conditions of use:
– when requested by the driver,
– when starting the engine,
– if the engine overheats (in order to reduce the power the engine has to supply),
– when the engine speed is kept at a very high level (to protect the compressor),
– during transition phases (e.g. high acceleration demand for overtaking, anti-stalling and moving off). These
conditions are only taken into account if they do not occur repeatedly, so as to prevent system instabilities (erratic
deactivation),
– when certain faults appear.
Cold loop air conditioning management
The air conditioning is cold loop managed, shared between several computers. The injection computer is
responsible for:
– authorising cold requests according to the refrigerant pressure, the engine coolant temperature and the engine
speed,
– calculating the power absorbed by the compressor (from the refrigerant pressure),
– requesting operation of the fan assembly, from the UPC, according to the vehicle speed, the refrigerant pressure
and the engine coolant temperature.

COMPUTER REPLACEMENT OR REPROGRAMMING OPERATIONS
The system can be programmed or reprogrammed via the diagnostic socket using the RENAULT CLIP diagnostic
tool (see Technical Note 3585A).
While the computer is being reprogrammed the engine fan assemblies are automatically triggered).
Operations to be carried out before reprogramming the injection computer:
Before reprogramming the injection computer, move the main Cruise control/Speed limiter switch to the rest position.
The information about the cruise control or the speed limiter displayed on the instrument panel disappears.
Otherwise, if the main switch remains in the cruise control or speed limiter position during and after reprogramming,
the Cruise control/Speed limiter function will not be operational.
To reset the function, proceed as follows:
Vehicle ignition on.
– Position the main switch in rest position (the computer then detects the rest position).
– Position the switch in Cruise control position to activate the Cruise control function.
– Position the switch in Speed limiter position to activate the Speed Limiter function.
Before reprogramming or replacing the computer in After-Sales operations, backup the following data to the
diagnostic tool:
– The IMA codes (individual correction of the injector).
– The engine adaptives (engine speed, and options available on the vehicle).
(this file corresponds to the last save carried out on the tool)
select YES,
When the backup is complete, replace the computer or reprogram, then proceed to the next step,
with command SC003 Backup computer data. IMPORTANT
–Switch on the diagnostic tool (mains or cigarette lighter feed).
–Connect a battery charger.
–Switch off all electrical consumers (lights, interior lights, air conditioning, radio/CD, etc.).
–Wait for the engine to cool (engine coolant temperature below 60 °C and air temperature below 50 °C).
WARNING
A computer without the IMA option can be replaced by a computer with this option. The codes have
therefore not been backed up during command SC003.
In this case, status ET104 "Injector code use" becomes "YES" or "FAULTY", fault DF276 "Injector code
programming" is present, and the engine operates in defect mode.
In this case, run command SC002 Enter injector codes, applying the procedure described in the
interpretation of this command.

NOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to a stored fault:
The fault is declared present with the engine running and a heating and air
conditioning request
Priorities when dealing with a number of faults:
Firstly, deal with the following faults:
– DF049 Refrigerant sensor circuit if it is present or stored.
When the fault is present or stored, the heating and air conditioning system is inhibited.
Check fuse F22 (10A) of the UPC and the condition of the air conditioning compressor connector.
If the connector is faulty and there is a repair method (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring,
Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the connector, otherwise replace the wiring.
Check the air conditioning compressor wiring.
If the wiring is faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring,
Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace the wiring.
Manually check if the compressor is jammed (turn the clutch plate manually to check that there is no point of
resistance). In the event of sticking, replace the air conditioning compressor (see MR 364 (Mégane II) or 370
(Scénic II), Mechanical, Heating and air conditioning system, 62A, Air conditioning, Compressor: Removal
- Refitting).
Top up with freon, check for any leaks and repair if necessary (see MR 364 (Mégane II) or 370 (Scénic II),
Mechanical, Heating and air conditioning system, 62A, Air conditioning, Refrigerant circuit: check,
Refrigerant circuit: Draining - Filling).
AFTER REPAIRDeal with any faults.
Carry out a road test, then check with the diagnostic tool.
