Provisional Diagnostic Trouble Codes
HOW TO READ PROVISIONAL DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODESRequired Special Tools:
- MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)
- MB991824: V.C.I.
- MB991827: USB Cable
- MB991910: Main Harness A
If detecting the malfunction during the first drive cycle, the ECM temporarily stores the diagnosis code as the provisional diagnosis code. If detecting the same malfunction during the next drive cycle, the ECM determines that the malfunction exists. The ECM outputs the diagnosis code. On Scan Tool MB991958, it is possible to display the stored provisional diagnosis code which the ECM had detected during the first drive cycle. This makes it possible to confirm in one drive cycle whether the malfunction could happen again after the repair.
