Note:

· In the Motronic M 2.8, trouble code 31 is always set when the ignition is switched ON. This code can either be displayed on TECH 1 or flashed out by short-circuiting the diagnostic plug with KM-640 in switch position "B". When the control unit receives engine speed signals from the inductive pulse pick-up on starting, trouble code 31 is automatically deleted and does not remain stored.

If trouble code 31 is not deleted on starting, a fault is present and trouble-shooting should be commenced.

· Trouble code 19 is only set if there is a very brief interruption of the engine speed signal at engine speeds higher than 2000 rpm.

If the interruption is longer and at engine speeds lower than 2000 rpm, the data stream from the control unit to TECH 1 is interrupted.

Test steps 29 and 30 can be divided into 3 parts

A) Engine does not start, trouble code 31 remains stored

B) Brief engine speed interruption, trouble code 19 may be stored

C) Engine speed deviates from nominal values, no trouble code stored

Notes on Trouble-shooting:Nominal Value:
Cause of Fault:

A) Engine does not start, trouble code 31 remains stored:

· Check plug connection from inductive pulse

pick-up to control unit

firm connection
· Loose contact
· Corroded contacts

Applies to C 20 XE engine only:

· Connect checking spark plugs to ignition

lead for cylinders 1 and 4
· Start engine
Checking spark plug ignitesIf no spark

· Lead interruption from

- ignition coil L 2 / Ter. 1 to trigger

box K 20 / Ter. 1

- trigger box K 20 Ter. 2 to

control unit K 61 Ter. 1

- ignition coil L2 / Ter. 2 to Ter. 15

- ignition coil to spark plug, cylinder 1

- ignition coil to spark plug, cylinder 4

Applies to C 25 XE engine only

· Disconnect injector connection plug Y 7-4

· Connect test lamp to injector lead Y 7-4
· Start engineTest lamp flashesIf no injection signal

· Short circuit or lead interruption from

- fuel pump relay K 68 to control unit

K 61 / Ter. 37 or injector Y 7-4

- injector 7-4 to control unit K 61 / Ter.

· Using multimeter, check resistance at pulse pick-up plug P 35 / Ter. 1 to Ter. 20.5 to 0.8 k W
· Pulse pick-up P 35 defective

· Check resistance at pulse pick-up plug P 35 / Ter. 1 to Ter. 3 and Ter. 2 to Ter. 3

infinite W· Short circuit from

- pulse Pick-up P 35 / Ter. 1 to Ter. 3

- pulse pick-up P 35 / Ter. 2 to Ter. 3

Nominal values are attained

· Segment disc/teeth corroded

· Metal shavings on pulse pick-up

B) Brief engine speed interruption, trouble code 19 may be stored:
