4. FAULT FINDING PROCEDURE (CONTINUED)
Wiring check
Fault finding problems
Disconnecting the connectors and/or manipulating the wiring may temporarily remove the cause of a fault.
Electrical measurements of voltage, resistance and insulation are generally correct, especially if the fault is not
present when the analysis is made (stored fault).
Visual inspection
Look for damage under the bonnet and in the passenger compartment.
Carefully check the fuses, insulators and wiring harness routing.
Look for signs of oxidation.
Physical inspection
While manipulating the wiring, use the diagnostic tool to note any change in fault status from stored to present.
Make sure that the connectors are properly locked.
Apply light pressure to the connectors.
Twist the wiring harness.
If there is a change in status, try to locate the source of the fault.
Inspection of each component
Disconnect the connectors and check the appearance of the clips and tabs, as well as the crimping (no crimping
on the insulating section).
Make sure that the clips and tabs are properly locked in the sockets.
Check that no clips or tabs have been dislodged during connection.
Check the clip contact pressure using an appropriate model of tab.
Resistance check
Check the continuity of entire lines, then section by section.
Look for a short circuit to earth, to + 12 V or with another wire.
If a fault is detected, repair or replace the wiring harness.

Engine coolant temperature management
1. Conventional type thermostat
Engine cooling is performed by one or two fan assemblies (depending on the vehicle equipment). The injection
computer requests the UPC to actuate them via the multiplex network.
To ensure cooling, with the engine running, fan unit 1 is activated when the coolant temperature exceeds 99˚C and
stops when it drops below 96˚C.
Fan assembly 2 starts when the coolant temperature exceeds 102˚C and stops when it drops below 99˚C.
With the engine off, only fan assembly 1 may be activated to provide the anti-percolation function (if engine is
stopped when very hot). The anti-percolation function is active with the ignition off for a determined period. During
this time, fan assembly 1 is activated if the coolant temperature exceeds 100˚C and is deactivated when the
temperature drops below 95˚C.
If ET672: Engine coolant temperature management has a fault, then the temperature is regulated at 90˚C.
If a fault on the coolant temperature sensor circuit is detected, fan assembly 1 is activated and remains on all the
time.
If the engine coolant temperature exceeds the warning threshold of 118˚C, the injection computer directly
commands the coolant temperature warning light to come on or requests this action from the instrument panel
computer via the multiplex network, until the coolant temperature drops back below 115˚C.
As well as managing the engine, the injection computer centralises cooling requests for the air conditioning,
automatic transmission and sequential gearbox functions.
2. Controlled type thermostat
D4F 764 engines (with a camshaft dephaser solenoid valve) are fitted with a controlled coolant thermostat that
manages the engine at much higher coolant temperatures in order to reduce fuel consumption.
Description of operation
A conventional thermostat fitted with a heating resistor inside the wax core is used. The resistor is controlled by the
engine management computer by opening cycle ratio*.
In nominal operation, high coolant temperatures are managed in the engine in order to:
–reduce friction,
–reduce fuel consumption.
Nevertheless, defect operation mode is used to overcome faults linked to:
–reliability: at high engine speeds and high loads the engine temperature must be below 100˚C,
–performance: a high temperature increases chattering and reduces torque.
OCR*: Opening Cyclic Ratio.

Or 1. DEF: Non-compliance with emission control standards.
Engine torque limitation is activated.
If the fault is directly linked to the controlled thermostat (DF893 Controlled coolant thermostat circuit), the
thermostat is no longer controlled. It operates continuously, either in low temperature mode (instance of short circuit to
earth) or in high temperature mode (instance of open circuit or short circuit to the battery). The engine torque is limited
to limit heating and also to protect the engine by preventing overheating.
c. Functions affected by the presence of a controlled thermostat:
–Coolant temperature: 108˚C nominal, between 70˚C and 90˚C in defect mode or on loaded points.
–Coolant temperature fault finding: the fault finding setting for coolant temperature consistency has been adapted.
–Consumption: The function improves fuel consumption. Consequence: a fault with the function may lead to
inefficient consumption.
–Bleeding the circuit: A new procedure adapted to this innovation is described in MR 392 and 385, Mechanical
systems, CLIO III and MODUS, 19A Cooling, Cooling circuit: Bleeding.
–Coolant temperature display and illumination of the warning light on the instrument panel: During nominal
operation there is no impact as the temperature reference value is taken into account as well as the warning light
illumination thresholds. In the event of malfunction, see the summary table below.
–Fan unit and air conditioning: the fan unit activation threshold and the high temperature air conditioning
deactivation threshold are adapted in accordance with the temperature setpoint.
–Fault finding of controlled thermostat: Electrical fault finding is used. No operational fault finding:
A mechanical fault (such as jamming) will not be detected by the system.
–Performance: In the event of a fault, there is the option to switch the engine to reduced performance mode (see
Description of operation: Operation in defect mode). Note:
If a fault on the coolant temperature sensor is detected, fan assembly 1 is requested to operate permanently,
regardless of the management mode of the engine coolant temperature.

Richness
For the catalytic converter to operate correctly, adjust around richness 1.
The richness regulation controlled by the upstream sensor which ensures a richness of around 1.
The upstream sensor supplies a voltage according to the image of the average engine richness: the voltage supplied
to the computer represents a Rich-Lean signal.
For the upstream sensor to be operational very rapidly, it is heated. The heating works only when the engine is
running. It is deactivated at speeds above 84 mph (140 km/h) or when the engine is under load.
The downstream sensor is also heated. The command does not activate immediately after starting the engine. It is
activated when the engine is running and has reached its operating temperature. The downstream heating sensor is
deactivated at speeds above 84 mph (140 km/h) or when the engine is under load.
Torque management
The torque structure is the system for managing engine torque. The torque structure is required for certain functions
such as the electronic stability program (ESP) or sequential gearbox (BVR).
Each computer (ESP, BVR) sends a request for torque via the multiplex network to the injection computer. This
intervenes between the torque requests received and the driver's requests (made via the pedal or the cruise control/
speed limiter function). The result of this intervention is the torque setpoint to be applied. Using the torque reference
value, the structure calculates the throttle position reference value and the ignition advance and if the turbocharging
function is present, calculates the turbocharging solenoid valve reference value.
Engine coolant temperature management
Engine cooling is performed by one or two fan assemblies (depending on the vehicle equipment). The injection
computer requests the UCH to actuate them via the multiplex network.
To provide cooling when the engine is running, activation of fan assembly 1 is requested if the coolant temperature
exceeds 99˚C and is deactivated when the temperature drops below 96˚C.
Fan unit 2 starts when the coolant temperature exceeds 102˚C and stops when it falls below 99˚C.
With the engine off, only GMV1 may be activated to provide the anti-percolation function (if engine is stopped when
very hot). The anti-percolation function is active with the ignition off for a determined period. During this time, fan
assembly 1 is activated if the coolant temperature exceeds 100˚C and is deactivated when the temperature drops
below 95˚C.
If the engine temperature exceeds the warning threshold of 118˚C, the injection computer directly commands the
coolant temperature warning light to illuminate or requests this action from the instrument panel computer via the
multiplex network, until the coolant temperature drops back below 115˚C.
As well as managing the engine, the injection computer handles cooling requirements for the air conditioning and
sequential gearbox functions.

OBD fault manager:
The European On Board Diagnostic (EOBD) fault manager neither replaces nor modifies the conventional
management of electrical faults. It is an additional feature to satisfy the EOBD* standard. The requirements are:
–to store EOBD* faults,
–to store the engine context when the EOBD* stored fault is detected,
–to illuminate the OBD warning light for all faults that cause the EOBD* emissions thresholds to be exceeded,
–to make the OBD warning light flash for all combustion misfire faults that damage the catalytic converter.
