Self diagnosis
Fault table
Notes:
-
◆ The fault table is listed according to the 5 digit fault code on the left.
-
◆ Explanation of the fault types (e.g. "open circuit/short circuit to earth"):
=> Fault reader operating instructions
-
◆ If components are indicated as being defective:
First check the wiring and connections to these components as well as the system earth connections according to current flow diagram. Only when no fault can be found, renew component. This is particularly relevant if the faults are indicated as "occurring sporadically" (SP).

After repairing faults the Lambda control values learnt by the Mono Motronic control unit must be erased, to do this on
Engine code ABD, ABU:
After switching off the ignition separate Mono Motronic control unit from vehicle electrical system for 30 seconds: Either disconnect battery (obtain radio code) or pull connector off control unit.
Engine code AEA: => Page 01-26
; Erasing values learnt by engine electronics control unit.
