| The engine control unit is equipped with self-diagnosis. |
| t
| The components marked with * are tested by self-diagnosis. |
| t
| For the optimum functioning of the electrical components a minimum voltage of 11.5 V is required. |
| t
| Before carrying out a reparation and for the fault finding, consult the fault memory → Anchor, Fault memory: consulting and clearing. |
| t
| In some tests the control unit may detect and store a fault. Thus, once all tests and reparations are done, consult the fault memory, clearing it if necessary → Anchor, Fault memory: consulting and clearing |
| t
| If the engine starts up briefly and then cuts out after fault finding, reparation or component test, this might be due to the immobiliser blocking the engine control unit. In this case, consult the fault memory proceeding, if necessary, to the adaptation of the control unit → Anchor. |
