NOTESConsult this customer complaint after a full check with the diagnostic tool
(fault reading and configuration checks).
Check that the engine speed is greater than 750 rpm and that the exterior
temperature is above 3 ˚C.
Check that the fuses are sound.
Use a multimeter and a 21 W test light.
Use the Wiring Diagram Technical Note, New Twingo.
With engine running, air conditioning in maximum
cold position and maximum ventilation speed. After
10 minutes, is the high pressure pipe at the
compressor outlet hot, and the low pressure pipe at
the evaporator outlet cold and iced up?
NO
Check the cleanliness of the condenser. Touch the
pipes: are they warmer at the inlet than the outlet?
YES
Is the dehydrator reservoir pipe hot at the inlet and
outlet?
YES
Is the expansion valve pipe hot at the inlet and
outlet?
NO
Is the evaporator pipe hot at the inlet and outlet?

Using the diagnostic tool statuses and parameters
screen (UCH heating sub-function), check that the
temperature signals are consistent (no sensor
deviations resulting in incorrect measurement).
–Use statuses PR002 Exterior temperature and
PR024 Engine coolant temperature.
Are the temperature signals consistent?
YES
Start the engine and switch on the air conditioning by
pressing the AC button (with a request for maximum
cold temperature and the passenger compartment
blower running).

Display the following status in the “User selection”
sub-function screen:
ET029 Air conditioning button should be
PRESSED.
Note:
The status indicates if the signal for the AC button
pressed on the control panel is read by the UCH
correctly.
Does status ET029 display PRESSED?
YES
NOCarry 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.
Replace any faulty components.
NOContinuity fault on connection 38LP.
Using an ohmmeter, carry out a continuity
test on connection 38LP between
components 319 and 645. If there is a
procedure (see Technical Note 6015A,
Repairing electrical wiring, Wiring:
Precautions for repair), repair the wiring,
otherwise replace the wiring.
AFTER REPAIRCarry out a complete check with the diagnostic tool.

With the engine running at idle speed, use the
diagnostic tool to check that UCH does in fact
send the start air conditioning request to the
injection computer. Status ET030 Air conditioning
request 2 should display ACTIVE.
Is status ET030 “ACTIVE”?
YES
Using the diagnostic tool (injection cold loop sub-
function screen), display the following statuses:
- ET004 Air conditioning authorised,
- ET088 Compressor activation request.
Is status ET004 “YES” and status ET088
“ACTIVE”
NO
Check that the injection computer is correctly configured. Status ET079 CLIMATE CONTROL PRESENT should
display YES (cold loop sub-function screen).
Is status ET079 YES?
YESNOCheck that the UCH is correctly configured by
viewing the configuration reading LC013 Type
of air conditioning.
Should be “Manual air conditioning”
Reconfigure the UCH if necessary.
Check that the UCH is receiving the engine
operating status and passenger compartment
blower signals correctly (for manual air
conditioning). In the Cold Loop sub-function
screen, status ET142 “Engine operating
phase” should display “RUNNING” and status
ET015 “Passenger compartment blower”
should display “ACTIVE” and parameter
PR024 “Exterior temperature” should be >
3˚C.
If the parameter and statuses are not correct,
carry out fault finding on the multiplex network
and UCH (interpretation of status ET015,
ET142 and parameter PR024).
YES
NO
Interpretation fault for status ET079, see
