Onboard Diagnosis System
Starting with January 1989 production, the Onboard Diagnostic System (OBD) has been eliminated until further notice.
A very limited number of Digifant 11 control units are available for pre-January 1989 production vehicles, to prevent the OBD light from illuminating
intermittently.
The modified OBD control units are identified by a yellow sticker on the outer casing. Contact your Product support specialist for repair information.
This type of ECU also requires a new reset procedure, as follows:
