Display group 001:

Current valid compressor shutoff criteria, voltage at the magnetic clutch, voltage at terminal "15" and signal for "ignition off period"

Notes:

  • ◆ If one of the compressor shutoff criteria 1, 8, 11 or 12 exists, the magnetic clutch -N25 cannot be actuated during the final control diagnosis () .
  • ◆ If the compressor shutoff criterion "5" appears in addition to another compressor shutoff condition, ignore shutoff criterion "5".
  • ◆ If several compressor shutoff conditions exist simultaneously (display zone 1), the display will either show them all alternately or it will show only the shutoff condition which is assigned the highest priority by the operating and display unit -E87.
  • ◆ If the magnetic clutch pressure switch -F129 is open, the compressor shutoff criterion "1" (overpressure) appears first and the compressor is switched off. If the magnetic clutch pressure switch -F129 remains open for more than 30 s, there is a change to compressor shutoff criterion "3" (vacuum, refrigerant circuit empty).
  • ◆ Display zone 1 shows the current compressor shutoff criteria.
  • ◆ In vehicles with an operating and display unit with one display and the Part Number 8D0 820 043 from index "M", the last four compressor shutoff criteria which were effective for longer than 20 seconds are shown in display group 011.

Note on display zone 4:

If, when the ignition is switched on, no signal for "ignition off time" was recognised by the -E87 (sent by the dash panel insert), the -E87 assumes a standing time of more than 4 hours and it is assumed that the engine temperature is the same as the ambient temperature. Possible consequences:

- When the engine is warm, there may be a delay before the fresh-air blower starts, even though the engine is at operating temperature.

- The ambient temperature display -G106 in the dash panel insert may display incorrect ambient temperature values.

Fourth last compressor shutoff criterion

▪ Coding => Page 01-110 display group 001, display zone 1

2

Third last compressor shutoff criterion

3

Last but one compressor shutoff criterion

4

Last compressor shutoff criterion

Notes:

  • ◆ The display group "011" is only present on operating and display units with the Part Number 8D0 820 043 from index "M" (version with one display).
  • ◆ Only the last four compressor shut-off criteria which were effective for longer than 20 seconds are stored.

Display group 012: Increase in idle speed, actuation of radiator fan, assignment of ignition key

Note:

The display group "012" is only present on operating and display units with the Part Number 8D0 820 043 from index "M" (version with one display).

1

Display 0 =

Idling speed regulation off

▪ Voltage at connector A, contact 2 to -E87 less than 2 V

Display 1 =

Idling speed regulation on

▪ Voltage at connector A, contact 2 to -E87 greater than 2 V

2

Display 0 =

Actuation of relay for radiator fan speed 1 off

▪ Voltage at connector A, contact 2 to -E87 greater than 5 V (fan off)

Display 1 =

Actuation of relay for radiator fan speed 1 on

▪ Voltage at connector A, contact 2 to -E87 less than 5 V (fan on)

Notes on display zone 1:

  • ◆ Checking the idling speed regulation function (increase in idling speed) => Page 01-60 Starting final control diagnosis for "idling speed regulation".
  • ◆ The condition for the switching on of the idling speed regulation is that no compressor shutoff criterion exists which does not allow the magnetic clutch to be switched on (e.g. pressure switch -F129 open, engine not running or operating mode "Econ" selected).

Note on display zone 2:

The radiator fan is switched by the -E87 to 1st speed as long as no compressor shutoff criterion exists which does not permit the magnetic clutch to be switched on (e.g. engine not running or operating mode "Econ" selected).

Display 0 =

The ignition was switched on with a key for which there is no assignment in the dash panel insert.
No information was received from the dash panel insert.

▪ Check adaption of the ignition key.

Display 1 =
(2, 3 or 4)

The ignition was switched on with the key which was set to position 1 (2, 3 or 4) in the dash panel insert.

▪ Up to 4 keys may be assigned.

Display zone not used.

Notes on display zone 3:

  • ◆ In vehicles from Model Year 1999, the assignment of the ignition key will be notified to the -E87 by the dash panel insert together with the refrigerant temperature and the signal "Engine temperature too high" when the ignition is switched on (data telegram).The assignment of the code can only by processed by operating and display units with the Part Number 8D0 820 043 from index "M". If the refrigerant temperature is too high, no information may be transmitted.
  • ◆ The assignment of the ignition key can only be recognised and therefore transmitted by the dash panel insert on vehicles fitted with an immobiliser.

=> Electrical System; Repair group 90; Repair dash panel insert

  • ◆ When the ignition is switched on, the -E87 starts with the setting which was valid the last time the ignition was switched off with this key (temperature, air distribution, fresh air blower speed).
  • ◆ Check signal from dash panel insert =>Electrical check, Page01-169.
