|
|
Implausible signal
|
- Engine speed sender -G28 loose - Sender wheel loose
|
- Engine misfires
|
- Test engine speed sender -G28
|
Note on fault code 16705:
-
◆ When the number of signals per crankshaft rotation starting from the reference mark gap is incorrect (60 signals), the fault "Implausible signal" will be set.
-
◆ To obtain a specific gap between G28 and sender wheel, G28 has a spacer washer.
If the speed sender is fitted without the spacer washer the sender wheel will be severely damaged.
-
◆ Metal particles can cause additional signals to be generated.
-
◆ Signals may not be generated or be too small and therefore not recognised if the sender gap to sender wheel is too large or the sender wheel is damaged.
-
◆ The signals can be irregular if the sender wheel is loose.
-
◆ Interference signals can cause additional signals to be recognised.

Note on fault code 17953:
If other faults are stored in the fault memory which affect the throttle valve control part, e.g. the fault "00670", the fault "17953" could be a knock-on fault. In this case begin fault finding with the other faults.

Fault in basic setting
|
- Voltage at engine control unit dropped below 10 V during adaption of throttle valve control part -J338 to engine control unit
|
|
- Read measured value block, Display Group 003, display zone 2 => Page 01-115 Test voltage supply to engine control unit =>Page 28-24 Check battery charge level

Notes:
-
◆ Important: Before attempting to repair the above fault, check the notes on the next page. On vehicles with control units programmed with software version D08 or higher (Part No. 4D0 907 551) the possible causes of this fault are different.
-
◆ To find out what software version the control unit has, check the control unit identification.

Throttle valve control part -J338
|
|
|
|
|
Fault in basic setting
|
- Conditions for basic setting (i.e. adaption of throttle valve control unit) were - violated during adaption process: Driver applied throttle during adaption process (idling speed switch opened) Driver started engine during adaption process (engine speed signal detected)
|
- The engine control unit cannot learn the limit stop positions of the throttle valve control part because the basic setting (adaption) conditions were violated.
|
- Ensure that conditions for basic setting (adaption of throttle valve control part) have been met; check learning requirement display =>Page 01-145 Repeat adaption of throttle valve control part =>Page 24-91
|
Notes:
-
◆ Check the control unit identification to find out what software version the control unit has.
-
◆ Control units with software versions up to D08 will store the fault "Throttle valve control part -J338; Fault in basic setting" if the voltage at the engine control unit falls below 10 V during the adaption of the throttle valve control part. (Further notes=>next page.)
Continued:
-
◆ Control units with software version D08 or higher will store the fault if the conditions for the basic setting (adaption of throttle valve control part) are violated during the adaption process (see previous page).
-
◆ The software has now been updated to include a new fault code which will appear if the voltage falls below 10 V during the adaption process. This makes it easier to identify the exact cause of the problem.

Note on fault code 17978:
If an attempt is made to start the car with an unmatched key the control unit will register a static fault. If the car is then started with a correctly matched key, the fault will be re-classified as a sporadic fault.
