Self-diagnosis
Note:
Self-diagnosis monitors only a part of the fuel
injection and ignition system.
Features of self-diagnosis
The Simos 3PB control unit is equipped with a
fault memory. The fault memory is designed as
a permanent memory.
If faults occur at the monitored sensors or com-
ponents, these are stored in the fault memory
with an indication of the fault type.
Faults which occur only occasionally sporadi-
cally), appear in the display with the addition /
SP. The cause of a sporadic fault may be, for
example, a loose contact or a temporary open
circuit in the wiring. If a sporadic fault no longer
occurs within 40 engine starts, it is erased from
the fault memory.
These stored faults can be read with the vehi-
cle system tester V.A.G 1552 or with the fault
reader V.A.G 1551 ⇒ page 01-4.
After rectifying the fault or faults, the fault
memory must be erased ⇒ page 01-4.
Note:
The description which follows relates only to the
vehicle system tester V.A.G 155 using the pro-
gramme card 5.0 or higher.
Tec nical data of self-diagnosis
Interrogating control unit version
The control unit version is displayed when the
vehicle system tester V.A.G 1552 is connected
and the engine electronics control unit selected
⇒ page 01-2.
Functions available w en using ve icle sys-
tem tester V.A.G 1552

Procedure
K- Connect vehicle system tester V.A.G 1552
with cable V.A.G 1551/3.
After connecting the vehicle system tester:
- Either, depending on the function desired,
switch on the ignition
or
start the engine ⇒page 01-1, table of „Avail-
able Functions“.
Notes:
♦
If the readout which appears in the display
does not correspond to the procedure:
⇒Operating instructions of vehicle system
tester
♦
If „Error in data transmission!“ is displayed
because of an incorrect entry, unplug cable
at fault reader, plug in again and repeat these
steps.
KReadout in display:
Note:
Operate the vehicle system by referring to the
readout in the display.
- Press keys 0 and 1 for the address word
„Engine electronics“ and confirm the engine
with the key Q.
KThe control unit identification appears in the dis-
play (example):
♦047906033B = Part No. of control unit
♦1.4 l = Displacement of engine
♦SIMOS 3PB = System designation
♦HS = Manual gearbox
♦SC01 = Software number
- Press the →key.

Only if engine does not start:
-
Switch on ignition.

nized!“ appears in the display.
If one or several faults are stored:
The stored faults are displayed one after the
other.

- Rectify the faults displayed by referring to the
fault table ⇒page 01-6.
- After rectifying the faults, it is then neces-
sary to carry out a road test.
The following operating conditions must be
met during this road test:
♦The coolant temperature must rise to mo-
re than 80 °C.
♦Once this temperature is reached, the fol-
lowing operating states must be achieved
several times:
Idling speed
Part load
Full load
Fuel shut-off on overrun.
♦At full throttle, the engine speed must rise
to more than 3500 rpm ⇒page 24-17.
- Once again, interrogate the fault memory of
the control unit.
If no fault is stored:
- Press the →key.

Notes:
♦The fault table is arranged according to the 5-digit fault
code shown on the left.
♦The SAE code (e.g. P0107) which is ositioned on the
right next to the fault code, should be ignored (a lies
at resent only to USA).
♦Ex lanations regarding fault ty es (e.g. o en or short
circuit to earth):
⇒Operating instructions of vehicle system tester
♦If com onents are shown as faulty:
Test cables and lug connections to these com onents,
and also earth cables of the system according to the
current flow diagram. Re lace com onent only if no
fault is also found in this case. This a lies in articular
to faults which are shown as s oradic (SP).
