Fault code: MID 185 - PPID 305 - FMI0

General information on the fault code:
MID185 G051 - Air production management ECU
PPID305 Front braking air pressure
FMI-0 Data existing but above the normal operating band
Appliance(s) implicated:

Appliance(s) implicated:

G051 Air production management ECU

Condition(s) and reason(s) for saving of fault code:

The pressure prevailing in the braking circuit is 1.5 bar(s) higher than the automatic cut-out
point.
The air pressure in the air tank is too high.
The G051 equipment is defective.

Perceptible symptoms or "customer complaint" due to fault:

The warning light D048 comes on (D048: "STOP" warning light ; D049: "SERVICE" warning
light).

The following message is displayed:

IMMEDIATE STOP

Recording of the fault code by the ECU G051.

There is no regeneration of the air dryer cartridge.
The system operates in emergency mode.

IMMEDIATE STOP

Recording of the fault code by the ECU G051.

There is no regeneration of the air dryer cartridge.

The system operates in emergency mode.

Troubleshooting and repair method:

In order not to damage the equipment, the repair steps should be carried out in the
correct order.

IN NO CIRCUMSTANCE SHOULD THE "AIR PRODUCT MANAGEMENT" SYSTEM BE

DISASSEMBLED.

Only the cartridge and the exhaust pipe can be subjected to maintenance.

General checks:

Check the general state of the function:

 The wiring harnesses and the fluids routing pipes are sound.
 The connectors are neither oxidized nor physically damaged.
 The connecting arrangement is not damaged.
 The connectors are properly plugged into their equipment.

Diagnostics using the RENAULT TRUCKS test tool:

Using the RENAULT TRUCKS test tool, perform the operation 5600-08-03-02.

Measurements and diagnostics on the module G051 :

Illustration of the module G051 Location

Key: in the illustration above, the unit G051 is identified by item "A".

The location (see illustration above) is given as an indication only, for more precision, refer to
the appropriate vehicle repair manual.

Preparation for tests and measurements:

Turn the ignition key to the "stop" position. Turn the master switch to the "OFF" position. Turn
the master switch to the "ON" position. Erase the fault code then restart the engine. Check
whether the code is again recorded. If so, turn the ignition key to the "stop" position, turn the
master switch back to the "OFF" position and wit for 30 seconds before undertaking any
troubleshooting.

Tests and measurements:

Check the mechanical integrity of the compressed air circuit.
Connect an external pressure gauge to the front brakes air tank.
Drop the pressure to 5 bars.
Raise the pressure of the compressed air circuit to 12.5 bars using the vehicle compressor.
If the fault is still present, replace the G051 equipment.
