Air conditioning function
The SIM32 computer manages a "Cold Loop" type air conditioning system:
–request for air conditioning by logical link,
–acquisition of pressure in the air conditioning circuit,
–vehicle speed
–air conditioning compressor control,
–fan unit control for the requirements of this function.
The injection computer reconstitutes the power absorbed by the air conditioning compressor and fast idle speed
requests by using the pressure acquired in the air conditioning circuit.
These signals are necessary for adapting the engine management (idling speed regulation, air flow correction, etc.),
for several reasons:
–air conditioning compressor efficiency,
–more engine ruggedness due to torque hesitation caused by the compressor clutching and declutching,
–helping the alternator.
Fan unit 1 and/or 2 requests are reconstituted according to the pressure in the air conditioning circuit and the vehicle
speed. In summary, there are more fan unit requests when the speed is low and the pressure is high.
OCS - Customised Oil Change Interval (does not concern Vdiag 44 and 4C).
This program takes into account the driving style of the user to warn him of the need for an oil service. It counts the
number of revs per minute since the last oil service, corrected by a factor dependent on the oil temperature. When
this number of revs per minute exceeds a certain threshold, the customer is alerted by a message on the instrument
panel informing him that an oil service is required.
After the oil service, the user must reset the oil service interval on the instrument panel.
To find out if the engine concerned uses this programming, consult ET840 Customised Oil Change Interval.
OBD
The OBD programs are as follows:
–catalytic converter fault finding,
–upstream sensor operational fault finding,
–misfire fault finding,
–fuel supply system fault finding.
The misfiring and fuel supply system fault finding is performed continuously. The operational fault finding for the
upstream sensor and the catalytic converter can be only be carried out once per journey, and can never take place
at the same time.

3. INTERSYSTEM ENGINE FUNCTIONS
The intersystem connections relating to the particular requirements of the injection are as follows:
–The instrument panel computer requests illumination of the OBD warning light to warn of an emissions control fault.
–Requests illumination of the Severity level 1 warning light to warn of an operational safety fault related to the
injection system.
–Requests illumination of the Severity level 2 warning light to warn of an operational safety fault or engine
overheating.
–Requests activation of the fan assemblies (GMV) for engine cooling, but also for the air conditioning system and
sequential gearbox (BVR) functions.
–Request for air conditioning compressor switch-off for engine programming requirements such as starting,
performance, anti-stall, overspeed, etc.
–Passenger Compartment Heating Resistor cut-off or setting request for engine programming requirements such as
starting, performance, anti-stall, overspeed, etc.
–Request for gradual engagement of electrical consumers and to limit power: This last function is made possible by
the alternator being operated. This is used to improve the engine handling in critical operating phases, mainly when
idling and when starting. These requests are sent by the UCH via the CAN network where they are converted before
being sent to the alternator.

TDC sensor:
The angular position is measured using a magneto-inductive sensor triggered by the machined teeth on the engine
flywheel. This sensor gives the engine speed as well as the position of the crankshaft for injection.
Refrigerant pressure sensor:
Its role is to measure the refrigerant pressure in the air conditioning circuit.
Engine coolant temperature sensor:
The engine coolant temperature sensor informs the computer of the engine coolant temperature.
Air temperature sensor:
The air temperature sensor is fitted inside the inlet manifold and informs the computer of the temperature of the air
taken in by the engine.
Catalytic converter:
The role of the catalytic converter is to convert pollutant gases into harmless gases.
Cruise control/speed limiter on/off switch:
This switch is used to turn the cruise control/speed limiter on or off.
Fan unit relay:
This relay actuates the motor-driven fan assemblies when a temperature threshold has been exceeded.
Accelerator potentiometer:
The accelerator potentiometer informs the computer of the position of the accelerator pedal (engine load).
Clutch pedal switch:
The clutch pedal switch informs the computer of the clutch pedal status.
Inlet air temperature sensor:
Its role is to measure the air temperature in the inlet circuit.
Pinking sensor:
Its role is to check for pinking in the combustion chamber.
Oil level sensor:
This sensor measures the level of oil in the engine and sends this information to the computer.

1. COMPUTER REPLACEMENT OR REPROGRAMMING OPERATIONS
Computer replacement or reprogramming for engines with the OCS (customised oil change interval)
function.
For Vdiag 44 and 4C, commands SC001 and SC003 are not accessible.
The system can be programmed via the diagnostic socket using the RENAULT CLIP diagnostic tool (refer to
Technical Note 3585A, COMPUTER PROGRAMMING AND REPROGRAMMING PROCEDURE or follow the
instructions given by the diagnostic tool). Only in Vdiag 54 and certain engines in Vdiag 50:
For Vdiag 50, the procedure below should be followed only if ET840 Customised Oil Change Interval is ACTIVE.
Certain variables linked to the O.C.S and the details of the last four oil services are saved by the computer.
However, all data saved is cleared during a reprogramming operation. When replacing or reprogramming the
computer, it is necessary to save the data from the old computer so it can be written to the new computer
(or reprogrammed). To do this before changing (or reprogramming) the computer, it is necessary to run the request
SC003 Save computer data, and after it has been changed (or reprogrammed), it is necessary to run the request
SC001 Write saved data.
For Vdiag 50, if ET840 Customised Oil Change Interval is INACTIVE, commands SC001 and SC003 should
not be used.
Operations to check before reprogramming the injection computer:
Before reprogramming the injection computer, move the main Cruise control/Speed limiter switch to the rest
position. The information about the cruise control or the speed limiter displayed on the instrument panel
disappears.
Otherwise, if the main switch remains in the cruise control or speed limiter position during and after reprogramming,
the Cruise control/Speed limiter function will not be operational.
The procedure for resetting the function is as follows:
Ignition switched on and main switch in rest position (the computer detects rest position at that moment).
Switch in Cruise control position to activate the Cruise control function.
Switch in Speed limiter position to activate the Speed limiter function.
IMPORTANT:
–Switch on the diagnostic tool (mains or cigarette lighter supply).
–Connect a battery charger.
–Switch off all electrical consumers (lights, interior lighting, air conditioning, radio, etc.).
–Wait for the engine to cool (engine coolant temperature below 60˚C and air temperature below 50˚C).
