On-off Ratio Test
The on-off ratio tests the operation of the O2S (Lambda) control system and additionally, recognizes certain malfunctions present during the test. Malfunctions are distinguished between those that occur with the
Ignition: ON and those that occur with the Engine: at CTP (idle).
The on-off ratio can be checked with the on-off ratio tester or with the engine analyzer. For this purpose, the purge lines to the engine must be disconnected at both purge control valves and closed with plugs. Check on-off ratio at closed throttle speed and at 2500 rpm. A readout of 50% or an oscillating needle indicates that all input signals and the O2S control system are OK. Readouts of 10% to 90% or 95% refer to a particular malfunction source (see Malfunction Tables). In addition, after testing the on-off ratio, an impulse readout must be performed using the impulse counter scan tool.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Readout with Impulse Counter Scan Tool.
Malfunctions which occur while starting or with the engine running are recorded by a malfunction counter. Malfunctions are assigned a specific value according to malfunction severity (e.g. hot wire MAF sensor 128, ECT sensor 32). The malfunction counter counts in stages up to a threshold value of 255. After reaching the threshold value of 128, intermittent malfunctions are stored into memory after switching off the ignition. Malfunctions which affect engine operation ( 128) are immediately stored into DTC memory by the malfunction counter after switching off the ignition.
If a malfunction is no longer present during a subsequent engine start or engine operation, the total value recorded by the malfunction counter is reduced by 1 every time the engine is switched off. This procedure repeats itself until the malfunction counter is cleared.
Stored malfunctions (DTC's) can be read with the impulse counter scan tool at the data link connector (X11/4). (Also see DM, Engines, Volume 2, section 5.)
The DTC memory readout must be performed with the engine OFF and the ignition switched ON .
Malfunctions occurring in the following areas are stored immediately:
CMP sensor,
Hot-wire MAF sensor,
Injectors.
A malfunction of the following is stored after more than 2 trips:
TN-signal (input).
The memory remains active even if the vehicle's battery is disconnected.
DTC's can be read with the impulse counter scan tool. Numbers ranging from 1 to 32 may appear on the display of the impulse counter scan tool.
The number " 1 " indicates: No DTC recognized in system.
All further numbers refer to a particular malfunction source. If there are multiple system malfunctions, the malfunction assigned with the lowest number will be displayed first.
If the DTC number indicated first reappears after more than two DTC readouts, then no further malfunctions are stored in the system's memory. After eliminating all malfunctions, they must be cleared individually and the ignition must be switched off for a minimum of 15 seconds.
In case of engine running complaints, the DTC memory must be read and the malfunction must be eliminated before proceeding with any additional repairs.
The DTC's of both LH-SFI control modules (N3/2 and N3/3) must be read. Indicated DTC's in the left or right cylinder banks, if any, should be checked with the socket box tester (see 23 ).
LH-SFI Control Module Self-Adaptation Feature
A self-adaptation feature for the emission control system is incorporated into the LH-SFI control modules.
If malfunctions of the:
Hot-wire MAF sensor,
Injectors,
Purge control valve,
Diaphragm pressure regulator
Purge valve
occur or if intake air leaks are present, the LH-SFI control modules conduct a self-adaptation process whereby the correction factors are continuously calculated and permanently stored.
After eliminating the mentioned malfunction or after trial installation of a
LH-SFI control module from another vehicle, the LH-SFI control module's self-adaptation feature must be reset to its mean value (see "Resetting LH-SFI Control Module's Self-Adaptation Feature to Mean Value" 11 /4 or with HHT menu selection 5 "Self-Adaptation").
After performing repair work on the fuel injection system, the LH-SFI control modules will also adapt themself during the course of operation.
The LH-SFI control modules should not be switched (left to right - right to left).
Notes for HHT
Fault search with HHT.
Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) memory: Select "Current DTC's".
If the actual condition changes, e.g. when wiggling a connector, the change is reported optically and acoustically so that troubleshooting can be performed directly with the HHT.
Loose connections.
Loose connections are stored if they occur several times in a certain time period. Therefore, they can appear only as "Stored DTC's" and never as "Current DTC's".
Nominal values.
All nominal values relative to the actual values as shown on the HHT are listed in the DM, Engines, Volume 1, section A.
Actual values for ECT, IAT and MAF.
In case of an open or short circuit, the actual value is immediately replaced by a substitute value which is very close to the actual value. Therefore, a fault can not be recognized clearly. A readout of the fault is possible only via the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) memory.
Actual value for engine rpm.
In case of the engine rpm's, the HHT display shows the closed throttle (idle) speed nominal value calculated by the control module on the left, and on the right, the rpm actual value. Both values should differ from each other only slightly. The permissible tolerances are not yet determined.
Preparation for Test with Impulse Counter Scan Tool
Connect impulse counter scan tool and on-off ratio tester according to connection diagram.
Reading Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Memory
a) Ignition: ON
b) Press start button for 2 to 4 seconds.
c) Read and record DTC readout.
d) Press start button again for 2 to 4 seconds.
e) Read and record DTC readout.
Repeat steps d) and e) until the first DTC reappears.
Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Memory
a) Press start button for 2 to 4 seconds (DTC readout appears).
b) Wait 3 seconds, press start button for 6 to 8 seconds, thereby clearing the previously displayed DTC from memory.
c) Each stored DTC must be cleared individually.
d) Ignition: OFF and wait 15 seconds.
Check if all stored DTC's are eliminated.
e) Ignition: ON
f) Repeat DTC readout. The number " 1 " (no DTC stored) must appear.
