CLIMATE CONTROL
Fault finding - Function
GENERAL INFORMATION:
The climate control function which is fitted to the new Twingo depends on the three computers: injection, UCH and 
climate control (DISTRIBUTED FUNCTION).
Fault finding on the air conditioning is performed in two different ways using the diagnostic tool.
The first procedure consists of performing fault finding on each computer which allows dialogue to be established 
with just one computer (select the climate control computer).
The second procedure consists of performing fault finding on each function which allows communication with all 
three computers belonging to the CLIMATE CONTROL function.
DESCRIPTION OF THE OPERATION OF THE CLIMATE CONTROL COMPUTER:
The climate control computer controls the passenger compartment ventilation, the distribution motor, the mixing 
motor and the recirculation motor.
The climate control computer also controls the interior temperature sensor.
The sensor and the three motors are connected to the climate control computer by wire connections. The climate 
control computer controls the passenger compartment ventilation using a modulated control signal (square pulse 
signal) sent to a power module (MVPE) by a wire connection.
All other signals used by the climate control computer or transmitted by this computer to other computers are sent on 
the multiplex network.
The production of cold air (cold loop) and hot air (heating) is controlled by the other two computers involved in the 
CLIMATE CONTROL function (UCH and engine injection computer).
Special notes on operation:
–When the engine is stopped, the passenger compartment fan rotates more slowly than when the engine is 
running.
–If any of the actuators are faulty, the air conditioning can no longer control them, but the setting requests are still 
displayed on the control panel: warning lights light up, display of symbols on the control panel (distribution motor 
position, passenger compartment blower speed, AC symbol, etc.).

NOTESConditions for running fault finding on a present or stored fault:
Apply this fault finding procedure if the fault reappears as present or stored after the 
ignition is switched on and air conditioning activation is requested with the engine 
running.
Special notes:
The interior temperature sensor is located at the top of the roof in the unit under the 
rear view mirror.
Use the Wiring Diagram Technical Note for the New Twingo.
Check the connection and condition (possible wiring damage) of the connector of component 1872.
If the connector is faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for the 
repair), repair the connector, otherwise replace the wiring.
With connector A of component 419 and connector of union R301 disconnected, check the insulation and 
continuity of the following connections between components R301 (dashboard/interior lights intermediate union) 
and 419.
●connection 38JN 
●connection 38GZ 
If the connection or connections are faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: 
Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
With the connector of component 1872 disconnected, check the insulation and continuity of the following 
connections between components R301 (dashboard/interior lights intermediate union) and 1872.
●connection 38JN 
●connection 38GZ 
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 insulation of connections 38JN and 38GZ of component 1872.
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.
Check the resistance of component 1872 between connections 38JN and 38GZ.
Replace the sensor if the resistance is not 10 kΩΩ Ω Ω
 ± 500 ΩΩ Ω Ω
 at 25 ˚C. For more details, consult the electrical 
specifications of the sensor according to the temperature (see Help).
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRClear the stored faults.
Follow the instructions to confirm repair.
Deal with any other faults.

+ 12 V SIDE LIGHTS FEED
NOTESNone
This status indicates the presence of + 12 V side lights feed on connection LPD of component 419.
If ET002 displays ABSENT when the side light are lit, check for + 12 V between connection LPD and the earth 
connection NAM of component 419.
If + 12 V is present on connection LPD and ET002 displays ABSENT.
If the status does not operate, carry out fault finding on the UCH (see 87B, UCH).
If + 12 V is not present on connection LPD, consult ALP No. 13.

ALP 13 Lighting fault on the control panel in night mode
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check of the multiplex 
network and the air conditioning with the diagnostic tool.
Special notes:
With the ignition on, the control panel screen is permanently on but the panel buttons 
only light up when the side lights are switched on.
Note:
If the exterior temperature sensor is faulty, the climate control computer is 
activated 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on (the UCH performs fault 
finding on the exterior temperature sensor).
Use the Wiring Diagram Technical Note for the New Twingo.
Is the fault shared with other components (first row cigarette lighter, radio, multifunction display, cruise control/
speed limiter on off switch, etc.)
YES NO
Switch on the ignition and the side lights.
Using the diagnostic tool and the conformity 
check, check that the lighting dimmer is operating 
correctly using parameter PR122 NIGHT TIME 
LIGHTING LEVEL.
Does the parameter vary?
YES
Check the connection and condition of the 
connector of component 419.
If there is a repair method (see Technical Note 
6015A, Electrical wiring repair, Wiring: Repair 
precautions), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.
NOCarry out a fault finding procedure of the 
instrument panel.
Run a multiplex network test (see 88B, 
Multiplex).
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a complete check with the diagnostic tool.

connection LPD (see Wiring Diagrams Technical Note, Twingo 2 passenger compartment fuse board, 
component code 1016, connection code LPD).
Check the insulation, continuity and the absence of interference resistance of connection LPD between 
components 419 and 1016.
If the connection is faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for the 
repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace the wiring.
YES
