Notes on checking:

Carry out check 1 if engine does not start; otherwise proceed directly with check 2 (check of tank vent system).

Check 1 (check of tank vent valve system):

 

Ignition ON

Engine OFF

 

 

Press key F5 in the system main menu, select the desired test using the arrow keys and confirm with YES.

Follow the instructions in the TECH 1 display.

 

Note:

The tank vent valve is actuated at a frequency of 0.5 Hz (actuation duration 1 s).

The check is completed after a maximum of 30 s.

Noise check:

Hold tank vent valve in hand:

quiet clicking noise

 

 

 

 

Check 2 (check of tank vent valve system):

 

Disconnect rear hose (to activated carbon canister) from tank vent valve (installed near right spring strut dome beside the fuel hose). The disconnected hose must be closed off to prevent fuel vapour from escaping from the activated carbon canister.

 

Engine running at idle speed, operating temperature

Vehicle stationary

 

Press key FS in the system main menu, select the desired test using the arrow keys and confirm with YES.

Follow the instructions in the TECH 1 display.

Intake noise ON / OFF  from tank vent valve

 

 

 

 

Note:

As the hose at the tank vent valve is only accessible with some difficulty, the check can also be performed as follows:

Do not disconnect hose. Carry out check as described above.

When the tank vent valve opens, the engine is supplied with additional fuel (precondition: enough fuel vapour in the activated carbon canister). This can lead to a brief drop in engine speed.

If, however, there is too much fuel in the activated carbon canister, the engine speed may sink so low that the engine stalls.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Notes on Trouble - shooting:

Nominal Value:

Cause of Fault:

·   Ignition ON

 

 

·   Using multimeter, measure voltage at tank vent valve plug Y 34 / RTBL (red / blue) to ground

11.5 to 13.5 V

·   Lead interruptions from control unit K 61 / Ter. 37  or from injectors relay K 43 / Ter. 8 to tank vent valve Y 34 / RTBL (red / blue)

 Ignition OFF

·   Disconnect control unit K 61 from wiring harness

·   Using multimeter, check from tank vent valve plug Y 34 / BRRT (brown / red) to control unit K 61 / Ter. 5 for passage and short circuit to ground

W

·   Short circuit or lead interruption from tank vent valve Y 34 / BRRT (brown / red) to control unit  K 61 / Ter. 5

·   Check vacuum hoses between tank vent valve Y 34 and

     -    activated carbon canister

     -    tank

for leaks, kinks and passage

No leaks

No kinks

Passage

 

·   Vacuum hoses blocked or defective

 

·   Activated carbon canister blocked

 

·   Nominal values are attained or defective

·   Tank vent valve defective

·   Control unit K 61 defective
