Fault finding - Role of components
GENERAL OPERATION
The UCH is involved in the following five functions (shared between several computers):
–Access-security function
This function is divided into three sub-functions: Access, Protection and Starting (see 82D, Access - Safety).
–Air heating and manual air conditioning function
This function is divided into four sub-functions, which are: User selection, Heating, Cold loop and Passenger
compartment ventilation (see 61A, Heating and see 62C, Manual air conditioning).
In this function, the UCH manages the heated rear screen operation indicator lights, heating controls and air
conditioning activation requests, by sending requests to the engine management computer:
–In the case of a vehicle fitted with manual air conditioning, by pressing on the air conditioning button.
–In the case of a vehicle fitted with climate control, by request from the user or the climate control computer in
automatic mode.
–Wiping function
This function is divided into two sub-functions, which are: Wiper control and Wiper power (see 85A,
Wiping-washing).
–Lighting Function
This function is divided into two sub-functions, which are: Lighting control and Lighting power (see 80D, Lighting).
–Energy management function
Note: There is no UPC on this vehicle; this function is managed by the UCH.
The system is composed of the UCH which stores the programming for electrical energy management, the starter,
the battery, and the alternator controlled via a BSS connection.
The role of this system is:
●to ensure electrical energy is supplied to the vehicle whilst respecting the dynamic performance
constraints of the engine and transmission assembly,
●to control alternator loading* and load shedding** during engine management authorisation or variation of
the electrical load,
●to ensure the quality of the on board network voltage in terms of the voltage level and variation,
●to optimise the battery charge by applying a voltage to its terminals correlating to its initial charge status
(in sleep mode) and to its internal temperature,
●to inform the engine management about the mechanical power taken from the accessories pulley, the
alternator charge rate and the rotor excitation current value,
●to run fault finding on the charging circuit: “Battery” warning light display.
*loading: This operation consists of transferring control of the vehicle's electrical consumption from the battery
to the alternator.
**load shedding: This operation consists of involving the battery in the vehicle's general electric power balance.

Fault finding - Role of components87B
–Energy management function
Role of BSS connection:
This bidirectional connection located between the UCH and the alternator circulates the following signals:
–Signals sent by the alternator: rotor current value, alternator charge value and electrical, thermal and
mechanical fault statuses.
–Signals sent by the UCH to the alternator: voltage setpoint, rail setpoint and rail inhibition.
Role of the DF terminal:
The signal circulating in the DF terminal is the alternator charge signal (displayed using PR073 "Alternator
charge signal") which is used to adapt the alternator supply to the demands of the electrical consumers
(such as the passenger compartment heating resistors, heated rear screen, etc.).
Depending on the battery charge status, the operating phase and the battery temperature, the UCH determines what
the voltage across the battery terminals should be.
When the battery charge drops, and PR076 Battery voltage after rest decreases, the UCH can temporarily
increase PR075 Alternator setpoint voltage by 1 V for a period of 15 minutes after switching on + after ignition
feed.
Before and during starting, PR075 Alternator setpoint voltage is fixed at 10.7 V.
A maximum of 30 seconds after the engine has started, the UCH sets PR075 Alternator setpoint voltage to the
optimum value calculated.
The injection computer can also control the alternator regulation voltage. The injection computer sends the
maximum authorised power delivered by the engine, to the UCH via the multiplex network. If this power supplied by
the engine is less than the power consumed by the alternator, the UCH reduces the PR075 Alternator setpoint
voltage.
The battery warning light will flash if a low battery charge is detected (no-load voltage less than 12.2 V: voltage
measured during technical use) for the first 12 miles (20 kms), then the warning light stops flashing. Also, the magic
eye of the battery (the hydrometer) is black.
–Access - Security function (see 82D, Access - Security, Role of components).
–Heating and manual air conditioning function (see 61A, Heating, Role of components and 62C, Manual air
conditioning, Role of components).
–Wiping function (see 85A, Washing wiping, Role of components).
–Lighting function (see 80D, Lighting, Role of components). Note:
At the time of user activation, if the mileage is less than 12 miles (20 kms) the charge status is used to display a
warning: this ensures that vehicles are delivered with correct batteries.

NOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to stored faults:
The fault is declared present after the ignition is switched off and back on.
Note:
If the exterior temperature sensor is disconnected or the vehicle is not equipped with
an exterior temperature sensor, the temperature displayed is the default temperature
of 215 ˚C.
Check whether the right-hand door mirror is fitted with an exterior temperature sensor. (See MR 411 mechanical
systems 62A, Air conditioning, Air conditioning: List and location of components).
If the vehicle is fitted with an exterior temperature sensor, deal with the following fault finding procedure.
If NO, the vehicle is not fitted with this:
Check that the vehicle is configured without external temperature sensor (component code 240 for left-hand
drive vehicles) or (component code 239 for right-hand drive vehicles):
Check that LC002 "External temperature sensor" is "WITHOUT". Otherwise perform CF029 "External
temperature sensor".
Check the temperature sensor 2-track connector (bent, oxidised, broken tabs).
Check the PE2 40-track connector of the UCH, component code 645 (tabs bent, oxidised, broken).
If the connection is faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair,
Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Check the insulation, continuity and the absence of interference resistance on the following connections:
●Connection code 47D between components 240 (for left-hand drive vehicles) or 239 (for right-hand drive
vehicles) and 645.
●Connection code 47C between components 240 (for left-hand drive vehicles) or 239 (for right-hand drive
vehicles) and 645.
If the connection or connections are faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical
wiring repair, Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Measure the resistance of the sensor (connector disconnected) on connections 47C and 47D.
