On-board diagnosis
Type of diagnosis:
Enable criteria:
Battery voltage should be between 10.7 and 18 Volts. |
Engine speed exceeds 1800 rpm. |
Sensor in normal operating range (715°C and up). |
PWM signal of preheating circuit between 20 and 80%. |
NONE of the following DTCs must be detected: |
Fault criteria:
Voltage signal across Nernst cell changes more than 100 mV when preheating works on/off. One or more control module pins (3, 19, 35 or 52) is short circuited to the preheating circuit. |
Checking the wiring harness
Move the wiring harness at several spots and in several directions to reveal intermittent breaks and short-circuits. Check switches, connectors and crimp connections for oxidation, retracted pins and pin clamping force.
