Injection double relay (1304)

Vehicle application

  • SAXO
  • XSARA
  • SYNERGIE

The double injection relay is controlled directly by the injection ECU

The double injection relay is connected to the injection harness by a 15 way connector (fastening of the connector by clamping bow)

It has 3 operating states

Ignition off: permanent +12volt supply to ECU (the supply to the memory and the auto-adaptation of the ECU are preserved)

Ignition on

  • ECU supplied with "+" after ignition
  • The fuel pump is supplied for 2 to 3 seconds after this time, the supply is cut off if the engine is not started

Engine running, components supplied

  • Injection ECU
  • Fuel pump
  • Injectors
  • Ignition coil
  • Canister discharge electrovalve
  • Oxygen sensor heating element (downstream oxygen sensor, upstream oxygen sensor)

Injection double relay (BSM)

Vehicle concerned: C5

(1) double relay

The double relay is incorporated into the engine relay unit

The first relay of the double injection relay supplies the following components

  • The injection ECU
  • The oxygen sensor (upstream of the pre-catalyst)

The second relay of the double injection relay supplies the following components
