ALP 6 No heating or inadequate heating
NOTESCarry out these checks after a full check using the diagnostic tool (fault reading and
configuration checks).
Check that the fuses are sound.
Use a multimeter, current clamp and 21 W test light.
Use the Wiring Diagrams Technical Note, NEW TWINGO.
Is the air flow correct?
YES
Is the air distribution correct?
YES
With a warm engine, set the heating to max.
Is the blown air hot?
NO
Using the parameter and statuses screen on the
diagnostic tool (Heating and UCH or Climate
Control sub-functions: 62B), check that the
temperature signals are consistent (no sensor
deviation resulting in incorrect measurement).
For manual air conditioning systems:
–Use parameters PR002 Exterior temperature
(depending on option) and PR024 Engine
coolant temperature.
For climate control systems:
–Use parameters PR002 Exterior
temperature, PR004 Coolant temperature
and PR001 Interior temperature.
Are the temperature signals consistent?
YES
NOSee ALP3 Air flow fault, air flow fault.
NOSee ALP2 Air distribution fault, air
distribution fault.
YESIf necessary, explain how the system works to
the customer again.
Carry out a conformity check:
–For the coolant temperature sensor,
see 13B, Diesel injection, Fault
summary table or 17B Petrol injection,
Fault summary table.
–For the exterior temperature sensor,
see 87B, Passenger compartment
connection unit, Fault summary table.

With the engine warm and
passenger compartment
ventilation operating, vary the
position of the mixing flap from
the maximum cold position to
the maximum hot position and
check subjectively that there is a
dif ference in temperature.
Is a difference in temperature
noted?
YES
NO
For climate control systems:
Carry out a conformity check on the mixing motor (PR012
Mixing flap position). If the conformity check does not reveal
any faults, look for a mechanical fault on the mixing flap
(condition of the motor ’s notched sector, flap jammed inside the unit, etc.).
For manual air conditioning and heater versions:
Check the condition and routing of the mixing flap control cable.
Eliminate any constraints it may have such as kinks, restriction by plastic
clips, etc.
Replace the lead if necessary. Unclip the cable from the side of the heating/
air conditioning unit and check the stiffness of movement of each
component: control button and flap control on the air distribution unit. Check
that there is no mechanical fault with the mixing flap (flap jammed inside the
unit, etc.).
Carry out any necessary repairs.
Is the fault still present?
YES NO
Is the lower heater matrix pipe (coolant inlet) hot?
Note: Pipe located on the left-hand side of the
heater-air conditioning unit, near the engine bulkhead.
YES NO
End of fault finding
procedure.
Check that the heater matrix is not blocked: the top
heater matrix outlet pipe should be hot. Clean the
heater matrix or replace it if necessary (see MR 411,
Mechanical, 61A, Heating, Heater matrix: Removal
- Refitting).
Is the fault still present?
NO
Check the coolant circuit:
Check the level of the coolant circuit (too low a level
may unprime the circuit when driving at low loads and
when idling).
Check that the thermostatic valve opens at the
correct temperature, and replace the valve if
necessary (see MR 411, Mechanical, 19A, cooling,
thermostat:
Removal - Refitting).

Note:
Fault finding procedure performed using a current clamp.
For diesel vehicles equipped with Passenger compartment heating resistors and climate control, check that
the climate control computer is correctly configured by reading the following configuration (reconfigure the
computer if necessary):
–For the climate control computer, parameter LC044 Heating resistor type should display 900 W.
With the passenger compartment fan activated, fit a current clamp to the connection of earth between the battery
and chassis earth point, and use the CLIP tool to run command AC250 Heating resistor relay 1.
Does the current measured increase by at least 20 A when the command is run?
YES NO
Connect a test light between connection 38LL of
component 1113 and the chassis earth and run
command AC250 Heating resistor relay 1.
Does the test light illuminate?
NO YES
Disconnect the passenger compartment heating resistor connector
(component 1113) and connect a test light between connections 38LL and MAK
and run command AC250 Heating resistor relay 1.
Does the test light illuminate?
NO YES
Replace the passenger compartment heating
resistor unit (component 1113) (see MR 411,
Mechanical, 61A, Heating, Heating
resistors: Removal - Refitting).
Earth fault on component 1113. If there is a repair method (see Technical Note
6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, W iring: Precautions for repair), repair or
replace the wiring.
