Fault-Tracing Information
Fault-tracing
Checking other diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), engine control module (ECM)
Note! The quick test of the fuel tank system must be activated when running this fault-tracing. There must be no diagnostic trouble code(s) (DTC) for the evaporative emission system (EVAP) and valve (ECM-420X, ECM-421X) or leak diagnostic unit (ECM-432X, ECM-433X). These could prevent the leak diagnostic. Check that none of these diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are stored.
- Ignition on.
Activate reading off diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).
If any of the above diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are stored they must be remedied and erased first.
Are any of the above diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) stored?
Yes - DONE
No - Checking the status
-------------------------------------------------
Checking the status
- The status of the fault can be determined by activating a quick test of the fuel tank system
- The fault is permanent if a fault is detected in the fuel tank system when running the quick test
- The fault is intermittent if no fault is detected in the fuel tank system when running the quick test
- Switch off the ignition to ensure that the status of the quick test for the fuel tank system is "Not completed". The test cannot be started if the status is "Completed"
- Ignition on
- Activate the quick test of the fuel tank system
- Read off the battery voltage, the status of the quick test of the fuel tank system and the status of the test phase. Check the parameters according to the conditions for starting the quick test of the fuel tank system.
Note! The following conditions must be met in order for the quick test of the fuel tank system to be run correctly.
Conditions for the quick test of the fuel tank system to start:
- There must be no diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) stored for the evaporative emission system (EVAP) and valve or leak diagnostic unit
- Engine off, ignition on
- The battery voltage must be 11-14 V
- The status of the test phase must be "Not running".
- The status of the quick test for the fuel tank system must be "Not completed".
Note! The battery voltage must be correct throughout the entire test. The test can take up to 10 minutes depending on the amount of fuel in the tank. Connect a battery charger if necessary.
- Activate the quick test for the fuel tank system by clicking the start button. Click the stop button to cancel the test.
Check that the quick test has started by reading off the status of the test phase. The test has started when the status of the test phase is "Reference".
Wait until the test is complete. When the test is completed, the status of the test phase must be "Not running" and the status of the quick test for the fuel tank system must be "Completed".
If no faults are detected after the quick test of the fuel tank system, the test result for the leak diagnostic unit and the fuel tank system will be "No fault found". If the estimated leakage is very near the diagnostic trouble code limit (greater than 0.3mm), troubleshooting should probably be performed despite the Tank system, test result shows "No leakage found", especially if a diagnostic trouble code for leakage has been stored earlier.
If a fault is detected after the quick test of the fuel tank system is complete, the test result for the fuel tank system or leak diagnostic unit will be "Fault found" with the corresponding relevant diagnostic trouble code (DTC), depending on the fault.
Note! In the event of a warranty claim the results from the estimated leakage must be entered in repair order text!
Hint: A diagnostic trouble code (DTC) for the fault will be stored in the engine control module (ECM) if the test result is "Fault found".

3. The quick test does not start
4. The test result for the fuel tank system, major leak (ECM-439C) or minor leak (ECM-434C) is "Fault found".

Fault-tracing information:
- The engine control module (ECM) is unable to run the reference phase to test the leak diagnostic unit. This may be because the conditions for starting the quick test of the fuel tank system have not been met, because the fault occurred during fault-tracing or because the fault existed before the fault-tracing began. Check that the hoses, connectors and components etc. have been correctly installed. Check the hoses, connectors and components etc. for damage.
Hint: Cancel fault-tracing for this fault. Then read off diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) from the vehicle communication socket. Fault trace any other diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) stored in the engine control module (ECM).
- Remedy as necessary.
