Fault tables
  Note
t  Faults occurring in monitored sensors or components are stored in the fault memory together with an indication of the type of fault.
t  The fault tables are arranged according to the 5-digit fault codes in the left-hand column.
t  All static and sporadic faults are stored in the fault memory: A fault is identified as being static if it persists for at least 2 seconds. If a fault is then no longer present, it is stored as being “sporadic”. “Sporadic” additionally appears on the display.
t  After switching on the ignition, all faults present are set to “sporadic” and only stored as being static if they are still present after checking.
t  Sporadic faults which do not re-occur in the course of 50 driving cycles (ignition switched on for at least 5 minutes, vehicle speed greater than 30 km/h) are erased.
t  Components indicated as being faulty by the -VAS 5051B- are not to be immediately replaced, but rather: Start by using the current flow diagram to check the wiring and connectors to these components. The earth connections are also to be checked on the basis of the current flow diagram. This is particularly important in the case of “sporadic” faults.
t  On completion of repair work, interrogate fault memory again and erase.
