ALP1 No dialogue with the ABS/ESP computer
NOTESOnly address this customer complaint after a complete check with the diagnostic tool.
Use the Wiring Diagram Technical Note for New Twingo.
Try to establish dialogue with an ESP 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 tightness and condition of the battery terminals (see 80A, Battery).
Check the charging circuit (see 16A, Starting - Charging).
Check that the power supply to the diagnostic socket is correct: 
Check for + 12 V on connection BP19 of component 225.
Check for earth on connections MAM and NAM of component 225.
If the connections are faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring: Precautions for 
repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Apply the fault finding procedure for specification 1. DEF of fault DF001 Computer supply.
Carry out fault finding on the multiplex network using the diagnostic tool (see 88B, Multiplexing).
If dialogue has still not been established after these checks, contact Techline.

ALP2 Locking or braking of one or more wheels
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a full check with the diagnostic tool.
Check the conformity of the mechanical components (see MR 411, Mechanical, 
30A, General information, Brake, Specifications).
REMINDERLocking 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.
Braking with ABS regulation on very poor roads can cause significant squealing.
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.
Use parameters PR001 Front right-hand wheel speed, PR002 Front left-hand wheel speed, PR003 Rear right-
hand wheel speed and PR004 Rear left-hand wheel speed whilst slowly turning the wheels in question and 
checking 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.
If a single reading is incorrect:
–Check that the sensor casing is secured when rotating.
–Check that the wheel speed sensor mounting is in good condition.
–If that is unsuccessful, replace the corresponding sensor and repeat the check procedure (see MR 411 
Mechanical, 38C, Anti-lock braking system, Wheel speed sensor: Removal - Refitting). 
–A possible inversion of the pipes on the hydraulic unit (see MR 411, Mechanical, 38C, Anti-lock braking 
system, Hydraulic braking unit, List and location of components).
Run commands AC003 Front left-hand wheel solenoid valves, AC004 Front right-hand wheel solenoid 
valves, AC005 Rear left-hand wheel solenoid valves and AC006 Rear right-hand wheel solenoid valves while 
depressing the brake pedal and check for locking/unlocking cycles on the wheel concerned (see Dealing with 
command modes).
If the cycles are not detected on the wheel tested (wheel remains locked), check if they occur on another wheel 
(confirmation of a reversal after a repair, see MR 411, Mechanical, 38C, Hydraulic braking unit, List and 
location of components).
If the cycles are not detected on a wheel and the pipes have not been inverted, replace component 1094 
(see MR  411, Mechanical, 38C, Hydraulic braking unit, Removal- Refitting).
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: the condition and the number of teeth= 48 (using the command SC001 
"Check target teeth").
Replace if necessary. 
If the fault is still present after these checks, replace component 1094 (see MR 411, Mechanical, 38C, Hydraulic 
braking unit, Removal- Refitting).

NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a full check with the diagnostic tool.
Check the conformity of the mechanical components (see MR 411, Mechanical, 
30A, General information, Brake, Specifications).
Disconnect one wheel speed sensor.
Start the engine and check that only the ABS 
and ESP fault warning lights are lit. 
Is the brake fault warning light also lit?Do not drive, the "braking compensator" function 
cannot be carried out (risk of a spin).
Deal first with the faults using the diagnostic tool.
Drive the vehicle and operate the brakes.
Is the customer complaint still present 
under these conditions?If the brake pedal travel is comparatively long, bleed 
the brake circuit (see MR 411, Mechanical, 30A, 
General information, Brake circuit, Bleeding).
If the travel is normal, check that the 4 vehicle tyres 
are identical and in accordance with the 
manufacturer's recommendations (see MR 411, 
Mechanical, 35A, Wheels and tyres, Tyre, Tyre 
pressure, Identification and Tyre, Identification).
Check and adjust the wheel alignment (see MR 411, 
Mechanical, 30A, General information, Front 
axle, Adjustment).
Check for any leaks on the brake circuit.
Apply the fault finding procedure described in the ALP 2 
"Locking of one or several wheels".

ALP11 Noises from the pump, the pipes or the hydraulic unit
NOTESOnly address this customer complaint after a complete check with the diagnostic tool.
Check the conformity of the mechanical components (see MR 411, Mechanical, 
30A, General information, Brake, Specifications).
Vibration of the unit: check the presence and condition of the unit mounting insulating rubber mountings.
Vibration of pipes: check that all the pipes are securely clipped in their retaining clips and that there is no contact 
between pipes or between pipes and bodywork.
To identify the source of the noise, use the control commands of the solenoid valves AC003 "Front left-hand 
wheel solenoid valves", AC004 "Front right-hand wheel solenoid valves", AC005 "Rear left-hand wheel 
solenoid valves" and AC006 "Rear left-hand wheel solenoid valves" and of the pump AC016 "Pump motor 
test".
