FAULTY SIGNAL - PERMANENT FAULT

Other diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs)



Note: The role of the central electrical unit is the overall control of the communication network and a number of DTCs which indicate the fault. In case of communication problems the fault may exist in another part of the communication network.
- Ignition on
- Read diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) from the combined instrument panel (driver information module)

If there are diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) for communication problems with the engine control module (ECM)/electronic throttle module stored in the driver information module (DIM), fault-trace accordingly.

Are any diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) stored in the driver information module?
Yes - Testing Complete.
No - Continue below.


Fault-tracing information



The throttle unit registered a communication fault previously, but detected that this fault no longer exists.


Fault-tracing information
If the fault is intermittent, do not verify fault-tracing if the fault does not recur.
