NOTESConditions of use of the command.
Ignition on, engine stopped and vehicle speed zero.
Before using the commands, check that the battery is fully charged.
These 4 commands should only be used if you observe lengthening of the brake pedal travel during a road test
with ABS regulation (the system should have been bled in advance using the conventional procedure).
See ALP8.
AFTER REPAIRClear the computer fault memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.

ALP 2 Locking of one or more wheels
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check with the diagnostic tool.
Check the conformity of the mechanical components.
NOTESLocking of wheels on a vehicle fitted with ABS or squealing of the tyres, which feels
like locking to the customer, may be linked to normal operation of the system and
should not always be considered a fault:
–Locking is allowed below 4 mph (6 km/h) (system regulation will not be activated).
–Braking with ABS system regulation on very poor roads (significant grating).
However, if the wheel(s) is/are actually locking, lift the vehicle in order to be able to rotate the wheels and check:
–Possible inversion when connecting the speed sensors.
Using parameters PR001, PR002, PR003 and PR004, rotate the wheels slowly and check the consistency of the
results obtained.
If the value measured is zero, rotate the other wheels to confirm an electrical inversion of the sensors and repair
the wiring harness.
–Possible inversion of pipes on the hydraulic unit.
Use commands Front left wheel solenoid valves, Front right wheel solenoid valves, Rear left wheel solenoid
valves and Rear right wheel solenoid valves while depressing the brake pedal and check for 10 unlocking/locking
cycles on the wheel concerned (see Dealing with command modes). If the 10 cycles are not carried out on the
wheel tested (wheel remains locked), check whether they are carried out on another wheel (confirmation of a
reversal: repair).
If the 10 cycles are not detected on a wheel and the pipes have not been reversed, change the hydraulic unit.
Check that the sensor holder does not rotate (depending on fitting).
Check the quality of the mounting of the wheel speed sensors (correct clipping for the front wheels).
Check the conformity of the targets: condition, number of teeth = 48 (using command SC001 Check target
teeth).
If the fault is still present after these checks, replace the hydraulic unit.
AFTER REPAIRClear the computer fault memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.

ALP 3 Pull
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check with the diagnostic tool.
Check the conformity of the mechanical components.
Disconnect one wheel speed sensor.
Start the engine and ensure that only the ABS
system fault warning light comes on. Do not drive
the vehicle if the brake fault warning light is also lit,
as the "EBD" (brake limiter) function is no longer
ensured.
Carry out a road test with the ABS thus out of order.
Is the customer complaint still present under
these conditions?
NO
Raise the vehicle so that you can rotate the wheels
and check:
–Possible inversion when connecting the speed
sensors.
–Possible inversion of pipes on the hydraulic unit.
For these two tests, refer to and apply the
procedures described in ALP 2.
Check the condition and conformity of the ABS
targets.
If necessary, replace the targets.
If the fault is still present replace the hydraulic unit.
YESIf the brake pedal travel is relatively long,
bleed the brake circuit.
If the travel is normal, check the tyre
pressures, the front axle, or for any leaks
in the circuit.
AFTER REPAIRClear the computer fault memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.

ALP 4 Drift
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check with the diagnostic tool.
Disconnect one wheel speed sensor.
Start the engine and ensure that only the ABS
system fault warning light comes on. Do not drive
the vehicle if the brake fault warning light is also lit,
as the "EBD" (brake limiter) function is no longer
ensured.
Carry out a road test with the ABS thus out of order.
Is the customer complaint still present under
these conditions?
NO
Normal behaviour linked to the system operation
during the regulation phase, mainly on surfaces with
uneven grip or which are poorly laid.
YESRoad holding fault not related to the ABS.
Check the condition of the brake linings
and that they are to specification and
check the tyre pressures, the front axle,
etc.
AFTER REPAIRClear the computer fault memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.

ALP 5Unexpected ABS operation at low speed and with
slight pedal pressure
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check with the diagnostic tool.
IMPORTANT: ABS regulation is sensitive on slippery surfaces (ice, wet cobbled
streets, etc.).
Check the conformity of the mechanical components.
Brake pedal vibrations may be felt which are connected to the system behaviour in particular situations:
–Crossing speed bumps.
–Tight cornering with lifting of the inside rear wheel.
These vibrations may be linked simply to "EBD" (brake limiter) activation, when the pressure on the rear axle is
limited.
If the fault relates to something else, check the speed sensor connectors (micro-breaks) as well as the targets.
AFTER REPAIRClear the computer fault memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.

ALP 8Lengthening of the brake pedal travel following a regulation phase
(with an irregular pedal when entering the regulation phase)
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check with the diagnostic tool.
Check the conformity of the mechanical components.
Air transit from the hydraulic unit regulation channels to the brake circuits.
Using the following diagnostic tool commands:
AC155: Rear left wheel bleed.
AC154: Front right wheel bleed.
AC156: Rear right wheel bleed.
AC153: Front left wheel bleed.
Carry out a bleed of the secondary circuits starting with the left-hand rear brake then the right-hand front brake,
the right-hand rear brake then the left-hand front brake.
After the operation, carry out a road test with ABS regulation.
If the fault is still present, carry out the above operation again 1 or 2 times.
If the customer complaint is particularly serious, and bleeding the circuit does not improve matters, replace the
hydraulic unit.
AFTER REPAIRClear the computer fault memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.

ALP 11 Noises from the pump, the pipes or the hydraulic unit
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check with the diagnostic tool.
Check the conformity of the mechanical components.
–Vibration of the unit: Check that the unit support insulating rubber mounting bushes are in place and in good
condition.
–Vibration of pipes: check that all pipes are correctly supported in their mounting clips and that there is no
contact between pipes or between pipes and bodywork.
The Front left-hand wheel solenoid valves, Front right-hand wheel solenoid valves, Rear left-hand wheel solenoid
valves and Rear right-hand wheel solenoid valves actuating commands may be used while depressing the brake
pedal to determine where the noise is coming from.
AFTER REPAIRClear the computer fault memory.
Carry out a road test followed by another check with the diagnostic tool.
