Ignition System: Description and Operation
General Notes On Ignition System
The engine control module is equipped with self diagnosis.
- For trouble-free operation of the electrical components a voltage of at least 11.5 V is necessary.
- During some of the tests it is possible that the control module will detect and record a fault. Interrogate and if necessary erase the fault memory when all tests and repair work have been completed.
- After completing fault finding, repairs or component tests, it is possible that the engine will start, run for a short period and then cut out. If this happens it may be that the immobilizer is blocking the engine control module. In such cases the fault memory must be interrogated and if necessary the control module must be adapted.
