1)     If there is a "1" in the appropriate position, matching the throttle valve control part is not possible.

2)     If a fault is recognised by the self-diagnosis, which may not as yet be stored in the fault memory. For diagnosis faults which affect the throttle valve control part, matching the throttle valve control part in the function "basic setting" will not be carried out.

- Battery heavily charged shortly after starting due to high charging current and current consumers

- Increase revs slightly for a few minutes and switch off current consumers

- Transfer resistance in the current supply or the engine control unit earth connection

- Check engine control unit voltage supply => Page 24-101

- Current draw when ignition is off

- Eliminate current draw

More than 15.00 V

- Voltage regulator in alternator defective

- Check voltage, replace regulator if necessary

- Excess voltage due to jump starting or quick charging unit

- Interrogate fault memory => Page 01-9
