Procedure

In order to save energy, the Laguna II Phase 2 UCH cuts off the + after ignition feed after 3 minutes.

When performing fault finding on a computer, it is possible to force the + after ignition feed for 1 hour by applying the
following procedure:
– Press the card unlocking button,
– Insert the card into the reader,
– press the Start button (interrupting the timed + after ignition feed mode),
– press and hold the Start button for over 5 seconds until the engine immobiliser warning light starts to flash rapidly
(4 Hz).
This forced + after ignition feed mode remains active for 1 hour.
Pressing the Start button or removing the card from the reader cuts off the forced + after ignition feed but does not
cut off the timed forced + after ignition feed mode. As long as one hour has not elapsed the + after ignition feed
function restarts the forced + after ignition feed for the remaining time.

Fault finding - Introduction 83A
Faults

Faults are declared as either present or stored (depending on whether they appeared in a certain context and have
disappeared since, or whether they remain present but have not been diagnosed within the current context).

The present or stored status of faults should be taken into consideration when the diagnostic tool is switched on
after the + after ignition feed (without any system components being active).

For a present fault, apply the procedure described in the Interpretation of faults section.

For a stored fault, note the faults displayed and apply the instructions in the Notes section.

If the fault is confirmed when the instructions in the Notes section are applied, the fault is present. Deal with the fault

If the fault is not confirmed, check:

– the electrical lines which correspond to the fault,
– the connectors for these lines (for oxidation, bent pins, etc.),
– the resistance of the component detected as faulty,
– the condition of the wires (melted or split insulation, wear).

Conformity check

The aim of the conformity check is to check data that does not produce a fault on the diagnostic tool because the
data is inconsistent. Therefore, this stage is used to:
– carry out fault finding on faults that do not have a fault display, and which may correspond to a customer
complaint,
– check that the system is operating correctly and that there is no risk of a fault recurring after repairs.

This section gives the fault finding procedures for statuses and parameters and the conditions for checking them.

If a status is not behaving normally or a parameter is outside the permitted tolerance values, consult the
corresponding fault finding page.

Customer complaints - Fault finding chart

If the test with the diagnostic tool is OK but the customer complaint is still present, the fault should be processed by
customer complaints.

A synopsis of the general procedure to follow is provided on the following page in the
form of a flow chart

4. FAULT FINDING PROCEDURE (continued)

Wiring check

Fault finding problems

Disconnecting the connectors and/or manipulating the wiring harness 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.

Tactile inspection
While manipulating the wiring harness, 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.

Check the continuity and insulation

Check the continuity of entire lines, then section by section.
Look for a short circuit to earth, to + 12 V or to another wire.

If a fault is detected, repair or replace the wiring harness.

5. FAULT FINDING LOG

IMPORTANT
Any fault on a complex system requires thorough fault finding with the appropriate tools. The
FAULT FINDING LOG, which should be completed during the procedure, enables you to keep
track of the procedure which is carried out. It is an essential document when consulting the
IMPORTANT! manufacturer.

IT IS THEREFORE COMPULSORY TO COMPLETE A FAULT FINDING LOG

EVERY TIME A FAULT FINDING PROCEDURE IS PERFORMED

You will always be asked for this log:

– when requesting technical assistance from Techline,
– for approval requests when replacing parts for which approval is mandatory,
– to be attached to monitored parts for which reimbursement is requested. The log is needed for warranty
reimbursement, and enables better analysis of the parts removed.

6. SAFETY ADVICE

Safety rules must be observed during any work on a component to prevent any damage or injury:
– make sure that the battery is properly charged to avoid damaging the computers with a low load,
– do not smoke,
– use the appropriate tools.

Oil service interval:
– The interval distance and time values and the displayed interval value are to be reinitialised following an oil
change according to the 2 parameters configurable using the CLIP tool, VP008 Oil service interval: current
value in KM and VP009 Oil service interval: current value in months.

First warning level reached: Oil change required soon

– When the interval distance reaches 900 miles (1,500 km) or the time reaches 2 months, the first warning level
is reached and Oil change required soon is displayed.

Second warning level reached: Change oil as soon as possible

– When the mileage before oil change OR oil change interval reaches zero, the second warning level is reached
and "Change oil as soon as possible" is displayed (with the SERVICE warning light coming on)

Oil change frequency:

Only use this configuration if the instrument panel is new.

This configuration updates the new instrument panel, in accordance with two parameters which can be configured by
the CLIP tool, VP006 Oil change frequency in KM and VP007 Oil change frequency in months from the old
instrument panel.

Refer to the driver's handbook for the mileage and frequency depending on the country.

Ignition on, engine off. Run command VP006 Oil change frequency in KM.
Enter the oil change interval in KM.

Example of entry:

Using the CLIP numeric keypad, enter 20 to display 20,000 km

or
enter 30 to display 30,000 kilometres

Special features of UK versions:

The new instrument panel is supplied configured, by default, in kilometres.

In addition to the language configuration CF125 Language version (km → Miles), perform the calculation below to
allow the instrument panel to display consistent values between the oil change interval and the desired oil change
frequency.

To display the oil service intervals in Miles, multiply the value in miles indicated in the maintenance service booklet
by 10 then divide by 6, to find the exact figure in kilometres.
After the value has been entered, the computer automatically performs the conversion into miles for the oil change
frequency.

It is imperative to use the following procedure for correct functioning of the range and frequency of oil
change.

Example:

18,000 miles x 10 = 180,000 miles, then divide by 6 = 30,000 Km (Enter 30)

Odometer

Only use this configuration if the instrument panel is new.

This configuration updates the mileometer on the new instrument panel, in accordance with a parameter configured
by the CLIP tool, VP010 Update mileometer.

The update counter increments every time the instrument panel mileage is updated (maximum 15). This update
counter is in the EEPROM and can only be reinitialised by the production or After-Sales services.

Calibration of the fuel sender

Only use this configuration if the instrument panel is new.

This configuration reinitialises the measurement of the fuel level on the new instrument panel, in accordance with a
parameter configured by the CLIP tool VP011 Fuel sender calibration.

Ignition on, engine off. Run command VP011 Fuel sender calibration.
The range of the nominal measurement is from 15 Ω to 320 Ω and the instrument panel converts the resistance value
into litres.
