BATTERY VOLTAGE
NOTESUse the Wiring Diagram Technical Note for the New Twingo.
This parameter specifies the supply voltage of the climate control computer.
This parameter must display a voltage equal to: 10.5 V < X < 14.4 V with the engine running.
Using a multimeter, check the consistency of the parameter by measuring the voltage across the battery 
terminals.
If the parameter corresponds with the voltage measured on the battery terminals, run fault finding on the electric 
charging circuit.
If the parameter does not correspond with the battery voltage, check the condition and position of fuse F29 (15A) 
in the passenger compartment fuse unit.
Consult section 81C Fuses.
Disconnect the connectors of the following components of connection SP2:
●Component connector 615
●Component connector 419
●Component connector 645
●Component connector 319
●Component connector 261
●Component connector 653
●Component connector 1428
With connector A of component 419 disconnected, check the insulation and continuity of connection SP2 
between components 419 and 1016.
If the connection or connections are faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: 
Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Check the vehicle earth connection NAM of the connector of component 419.
If the connection is faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for the 
repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace the wiring.
If these checks do not reveal any faults, carry out a test on each of the components involved in connection 
SP2 (short circuit).
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.

ALP 1 No dialogue with the computer
NOTESSpecial notes: To run fault finding on the vehicle computers, use the key to switch on 
the ignition.
Use the W iring Diagram Technical Note for the New Twingo.
Check that the vehicle is equipped with climate control.
Try to establish dialogue with a computer on another vehicle to make sure that the diagnostic tool is not faulty. 
If the tool is not at fault, and dialogue cannot be established with any other computer on the same vehicle, the 
cause could be a faulty computer interfering on the multiplex network.
Check the battery voltage and perform the necessary operations to obtain a correct voltage (9.5 V < Battery 
voltage < 17.5 V, see section 16A Starting-charging).
Check:
–the connection between the diagnostic tool and the diagnostic probe (lead in good condition),
–the connection between the diagnostic sensor and the diagnostic socket (lead in good condition).
Carry out fault finding on the multiplex network using the diagnostic tool (see 88B, Multiplex).
Check the condition and position of fuse F29 (15 A) in the passenger compartment fuse box.
Consult section 81C Fuses.
Disconnect the connectors of the following components of connection SP2:
 
●Component connector 615
●Component connector 419
●Component connector 645
●Component connector 319
●Component connector 261
●Component connector 653
●Component connector 1428
Check the insulation and continuity of connection SP2 between components 419 and 1016.
Check the vehicle earth connection NAM of the connector of component 419.
If the connection is faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for the 
repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace the wiring.
If these checks do not reveal any faults, carry out a test on each of the components involved in connection 
SP2 (short circuit).
Check the condition and position of fuse F18 (10 A) in the passenger compartment fuse box.
Consult section 81C Fuses.
Disconnect the connectors of the following components of connection BP6:
 
●Component connector 995
●Component connector 419

Ensure that the supply to the diagnostic socket is correct:
Check the condition and position of fuse F12 (5 A) in the passenger compartment fuse box.
Consult section 81C Fuses.
Connector of component 645 of connection BP19 disconnected:
–Check for + after ignition feed on connection BP19 of component 225.
If the + after ignition feed on connection BP 19 is not guaranteed, check component 1016.
–Check connections NAM and MAM of component 225.
If the connection is faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for the 
repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace the wiring.

ALP 5 No passenger compartment ventilation
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check with the diagnostic 
tool.
Special notes:
The intermediate connector is located on the distribution-ventilation unit and the 
passenger compartment blower unit control module is located slightly higher up, 
below the heater matrix pipes.
Use the W iring Diagram Technical Note for the New Twingo.
Using the diagnostic tool, check that the passenger compartment 
blower control setting given by the computer varies from 0 to 100 % by 
checking parameter PR019 PASSENGER COMPARTMENT BLOWER 
PWM SETTING (refer to the interpretation of this parameter).
Does the value vary?
Check that the control voltage (PWM) from the passenger compartment blower power module varies between 0 
and 12  V (from 0 to 100 %) by measuring this voltage between connection 38LR of component 1023 and earth 
MAN (connector disconnected).
Does the voltage vary correctly?
NOYES
Check the insulation and continuity of connection 38LR between components 419 
and 1023.
If the connection is faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, 
Wiring: Precautions for the repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace the wiring.
Before ignition feed, check for + 12 V accessories feed on connection SP3 of 
component 1023 in relation to the chassis earth.
●Check the continuity of connection MAN between the intermediate connector and 
component 1023.
●Check the continuity of connection MAN between the intermediate connector and 
the chassis earth.
If the connection is faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, 
Wiring: Precautions for the repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace the wiring.
If there is no +12 V accessories feed, check the condition and position of fuse F28 (30A) 
in the passenger compartment fuse box. Consult section 81C Fuses.
If the checks do not reveal any faults, carry out conformity check on component 1016 
and component 1428 if the vehicle is fitted with electric windows.
NOContact the 
Techline.

vehicle is fitted with electric windows.
Check that the passenger compartment blower blade is not broken or separated from its shaft (see MR 412 
Bodywork, 57A Interior equipment, Passenger compartment blower: Removal - refitting).
Replace the passenger compartment blower if necessary.
With the connector disconnected, measure the resistance value of the 
passenger compartment blower motor:
Check the resistance (approximately 0.180 Ω of component 1156 
between connections 38DB and 38DA.
If the connection or connections are faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, 
Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair
