Continue checking if 0 is indicated %:
   
–  Pull connector -1- off intake manifold pressure sender -G71- with intake air temperature sender -G42--2- (engine stalls).
–  Bridge connector contacts 3+4.
Indication of 100 %:
–  Press the key.
–  Press keys 0 and 6 for the “End output” function and confirm input with the Q key.
–  Switch ignition off.

Indication of 0 %:
–  Press the key.
–  Press keys 0 and 6 for the “End output” function and confirm input with the Q key.
–  Switch ignition off.
