Scheme 209: CHECKING THE COMPONENT AND WIRING
  1. Check the engine speed (RPM) sensor connector. Check for contact resistance and oxidation. HINT: The components and its cables are sensitive to interference from nearby cables, such as the starter motor cable or a similar cable with a high current rating. Interference may cause difficult engine start, the engine does not start at all or intermittent function of the tachometer, etc. Check whether any cables with high power consumption are incorrectly installed, i. e. too close to the engine speed (RPM) sensor or its wiring. Check that the engine speed (RPM) sensor is correctly installed. Remedy as necessary.

REPLACING THE COMPONENT

Note. If the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) for sensors connected to 5 volt supply is stored, the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) must be fault-traced before this diagnostic trouble code (DTC).

The engine control module (ECM) has registered an internal fault.

If the fault is intermittent, it has been registered previously but is no longer present. Intermittent faults can be caused by interference at start up of the engine control module (ECM) or may be a different type of fault which occurs on different occasions. The fault is evaluated depending on how it occurs. Replace the engine control module (ECM) if the fault recurs.

Replace the engine control module (ECM) in the event of a permanent fault.

FAULTY SIGNAL

See FAULTY SIGNAL

No fault-tracing has been developed for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC). The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) for this fault is stored first in the brake control module (BCM), then in the engine control module (ECM). This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can not be erased before the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) in the brake control module (BCM) has been remedied and erased.

First read off the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) in the brake control module (BCM). Fault-trace and remedy as necessary. This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can then be erased.

For further information about this diagnostic trouble code (DTC), select Information, then DTC information.

See FAULT-TRACING INFORMATION

The engine control module (ECM) has registered an internal fault.

Note. This diagnostic trouble code may have been stored incorrectly due to the Engine control module (ECM) considering that the battery voltage has been lower than normal. Newer software for Engine control module (ECM) has been made more durable and thus this problem cause is eliminated. Make sure that the Engine control module (ECM) has the latest software. Troubleshooting shall only continue if the control module already has the latest software.

CHECKING THE THROTTLE UNIT

  1. Ignition on
  2. Activate reading off the position of the throttle
  3. Check that both sensors indicate values within the permitted range at different deployments. NOTE: Dirt, ice build-up or objects can cause the throttle disc to jam momentarily. This may cause the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) to be stored. Check that the shutter in the throttle unit is not dirty, blocked or sticking. Clean as necessary. HINT: A film of oil covering the throttle may mean that the flame trap is not functioning correctly. If the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) recurs and no faults can be found as above, try replacing the throttle unit. Remedy as necessary.

Note. The ignition must be switched on for at least 30 seconds after the basic conditions are met in order for the adaptation to start. It takes approximately 10 seconds to run the adaptation.

  1. Ignition off
  2. Reinstall the components and connectors etc.
  3. Ignition on. Read off parameters. Check that the following basic conditions for adaptation of the throttle unit are met. Ignition on / engine off Battery voltage above 10 V Accelerator pedal (AP) unaffected The vehicle must be stationary (no vehicle speed signal) Engine coolant temperature (ECT) between 5-100 °C Intake air temperature (IAT) above 5 °C. Remedy as necessary. Check that the adaptation is correctly run after the "Adaptation of the throttle unit running" parameter changes status from "YES" to "NO". When all basic conditions are met, the adaptation must be completed after approximately 40 seconds. When the adaptation is completed correctly, the following information will be displayed: Adaptation of the throttle unit: OK Adaptation of the throttle unit running: NO.

CHECKING THE SIGNAL

Check whether any diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are stored in the brake control module (BCM) or in the central electronic module (CEM). If diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are stored in the brake control module (BCM) or in the central electronic module (CEM), these shall be taken care of first.

If there are any other diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) stored for the brake pedal position sensor or for the stop lamp switch, fault-trace these first.

HINT: If diagnostic trouble code ECM-941C is stored in the engine control module (ECM), the brake pedal switch probably is or has been damaged.

Check the signals from the brake pedal switch and the brake pedal sensor during vehicle communication for the engine control module. The switch should be closed and the brake pedal sensor value should be updated when the brake pedal is depressed.

Check the cables for short-circuit to voltage, short-circuit to ground and open circuit.

This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can not be erased before the diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) in the central electronic module (CEM) has been remedied and erased.

Therefore, first read off diagnostic trouble codes in Central electronic module (CEM), perform troubleshooting and perform actions as needed. This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can then be erased.

  1. Ignition on. Activate the read off for the signals for the brake pedal position sensor and stop lamp switch. Check that the value at the brake pedal position sensor is approximately 7% when the brake pedal is unaffected and approximately 80% when the pedal is fully depressed with the engine running. Check also that the stop lamp switch changes status. When the brake pedal is unaffected, "OFF" must be displayed. If the brake pedal is depressed slightly, the status must change to "ON". NOTE: If an incorrect value is obtained from the brake pedal position sensor, the brake control module (BCM) must initially be searched for the fault cause. The fault is intermittent at present if the values and the status from the brake pedal position sensor and the stop lamp switch correspond as above.
  1. Continue Refer to «CHECKING THE POWER SUPPLY»(ref-466671-S13660416602012042500000)
  1. Ignition on. Check the power supply to the stop lamp switch. Take readings between stop lamp switch terminal #2 (cable harness side) and the ground terminal. The power supply must be approximately 12 V. If there is no power supply: Check the power supply circuit for stop lamp switch terminal #2 (cable harness side). Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground. Check for a blown fuse in the circuit. Remedy as necessary. Other information see «CONNECTING THE BREAKOUT BOX»(ref-466591-S26645247992012042500000) see «SIGNAL SPECIFICATION»(ref-466592-S15475582172012042500000) see «STOPLAMP SWITCH»(ref-479181-S37066927572012061200000) see «CHECKING WIRING AND TERMINALS»(ref-466589-S38415998382012042500000)
  1. Continue Refer to «CHECKING THE COMPONENT AND WIRING»(ref-466671-S12617392042012042500000)

HINT: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.

  1. Ignition off.
  2. Reconnect the connectors, reinstall components etc.
  3. Ignition on. Activate the read off for the signals for the brake pedal position sensor and stop lamp switch. Check that the value for brake position sensor at unaffected brake pedal is approx. 7% and when the pedal is fully pressed down approx. 80% when the engine is running. Also check that the brake light switch changes status. The status must be OFF with the brake pedal unaffected and change to ON when the brake pedal is pressed. If values and status from the brake position sensor and brake light switch do not match acc. to the above, this indicates incorrect function.

Is the function OK?

  1. YES VERIFIED: Troubleshooting has been completed.
  2. NO Refer to «INFORMATION»(ref-466671-S30912018972012042500000)

The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.

Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.
