On-board diagnosis
Type of diagnosis:
Enable criteria:
| Battery voltage must be between 11 - 16 V. |
| NONE of the following DTCs must be detected: |
Fault criteria:
| Output voltage exceeds 2 V during the portion of the PWM period when the control module is grounding. The condition exists for more than 2 s. |
Dependent:
System reaction to a fault:
| Fuel adaption is blocked and reset. |
| EVAP canister purge valve deactivated. |
OK report:
| Diagnostics carried out without fault reported. |
Fault handling:
| (See section Fault handling III, "Other emission-related components and functions" for more information.) |
