SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

To prevent personal injury and damage to the injection and ignition system, observe the following

  1. The ignition must be switched off before connecting or disconnecting injection and ignition system wiring or tester cables.
  2. Only clean engine with ignition switched off.
  3. If electrical connectors were disconnected, faults are saved in ECM

Connect vehicle diagnosis, testing and information systemVAS 5051B while ignition is switched off.

Start "Guided Functions" operating mode.

Generate readiness code in ECM.

CAUTIONRisk of destroying electrical components when battery is disconnected. Observe measures when disconnecting battery. Only disconnect battery with ignition switched off.

Disconnect battery Removal and Installation .

If it is necessary to use testing and measuring devices on road tests, observe the following

WARNINGDistraction and improperly secured test equipment can lead to accidents. Risk of passenger airbag deploying in an accident. Operating testing and measuring equipment while driving creates a distraction. There is an increased risk of injury due to unsecured testing and measuring equipment. Always secure testers on the rear seat with a strap and have a second person on the rear seat operate them.

IGNITION SYSTEM

  1. For trouble-free operation of the electrical components a voltage of at least 12.5 V is necessary.
  2. If the engine only starts briefly and then turns off again after troubleshooting, repair or checking of the components, it may be that the immobilizer is blocking the Engine Control Module (ECM). DTC memory must then be checked and if necessary, control module must be adapted.
