Fault symptoms

Some of the following symptoms may be observed:


Engine will not start.

Cruise control will not work.

A/C not working.

Radiator fan running continuously.

Main instrument unit gauges and displays not working.

Further diagnostic trouble code in Trionic (P1901).

Further diagnostic trouble codes in TCM (P1902 or P1923).


On-Board Diagnostics

Type of diagnosis:


- Continuous. However, it is interrupted once the fault criteria have been fulfilled and does not restart until the next driving cycle.


Enable criteria: (Conditions that must be fulfilled for diagnostics to be performed.)


- Engine running.




Fault criteria: (When enable criteria have been fulfilled, diagnostics will check if the fault criteria have been fulfilled.)


- No communication for more than 3s.


Dependents: (Once fault criteria have been fulfilled, a number of other diagnostics must report OK before the diagnostic trouble code can finally be generated.)


- None.


System reaction to a fault: (Once the fault criteria have been fulfilled, certain measures will sometimes be taken.)


- Cruise control is blocked.


OK report: (This diagnosis may be included as a dependent to another diagnosis and must therefore report OK even if it is continuous. The OK report is also used in fault handling to count down the fault counter.)


- Enable criteria fulfilled and fault criteria not fulfilled within 60s.


Fault handling: (Refer to section “Fault diagnosis, general” for more information.)


- Type III. Does not turn on CHECK ENGINE.


Diagnostic help

Fault diagnosis concerns an intermittent electrical fault in the power supply to the sending control module or on one of the bus leads.

Check the wiring

Jiggle the wiring harness at several points and in different directions to check if there are intermittent breaks and short-circuits in the leads. Observe the multimeter, test lamp or diagnostic instrument during the test.
