The climate control system features a self-diagnosis function which can detect and store both current permanent faults as well as intermittent faults which have occurred during normal operation of the vehicle. It is also possible to read out these faults via the display of the EATC (Electronic Air Temp Control) module.

Read-out of current faults

On the EATC module, briefly press the "OFF" and "FOOTWELL" buttons simultaneously, then press "AUTO" within 2 seconds. The self-diagnosis which then starts lasts a few seconds. An animated display appears during this time in the EATC display. Any faults found are displayed in the form of trouble codes. Example: First of all, "12" flashes for 2 seconds, then "51" flashes for 2 seconds - DTC B1251. If no faults are stored, then all of the segments in the display are actuated. The following table gives information on the possible DTCs and their corresponding meanings. Diagnosis mode can be stopped at any time by PRESSING any button on the EATC module.

Read-out of intermittent faults

On the EATC module, briefly press the "OFF" and "FOOTWELL" buttons simultaneously, then press "FACE LEVEL" within 2 seconds. Any stored intermittent faults are output on the EATC display and should be noted for safety reasons. By PRESSING the "DEFROST" button, the fault memory is cleared and diagnosis mode is ended. To end diagnosis mode without clearing the DTCs, PRESS any other button on the EATC module.

Juudasman kirjoitti:Lisäystä vielä tuohon. Eli sain tarkistettua vikakoodin ja se oli 1676 ja listankin löysin jossa sanotaan että: B 1676 Voltage supply outside tolerance (less than 9 V or more than 16 V)

ynjevi kirjoitti: Mistä tuon listan löysit?

Näkyvätkö nuo vikailmoitukset myös huollon laitteissa? Eli huomaako huoltomies ne ilman asiakkaan eri mainintaa?

Näistä dokumentoimattomista tarkistusmahdollisuuksista olisi hyvä olla aivan oma viestiketjunsa, johon niitä lisättäisiin aina kun joku sellaisen hoksaa. Noitahan löytyy ainakin lisälämmittimelle ja radiolle (jotkut mallit).
