2HIGH RESSURE CIRCUIT CHECKAll OKProblems metOperation

With the Examiner tester connected to the tester input check:

  • that the diesel pressure parameter is as described in the test 1060D
  • the correct operation of the pressure regulator by means of active diagnostics
  • the correct operation of the injectors through active diagnosis
  • absence of leaks in high pressure circuit
Continue to Step 4Diesel pressure parameter incorrectContinue to Step 3
Pressure regulator defectiveReplace the pressure regulator Op. 1060E50
Leaks in high pressure circuitRestore system seal
Faulty injectorReplace the damaged injector Op. 1060F10
3INJECTOR HIGH PRESSURE CHECKAll OKProblems metOperation
Check, as described in the test See Test 1060C Injector high pressure fuel circuit check , that diesel leaks from the injector recirculation connections are small and about the same as one another.Continue to Step 4Large leak from one injectorReplace the injector Op. 1060F10
4BRAKE SWITCH CHECKAll OKProblems metOperation
With the Examiner connected to the diagnostic socket, check that the brake switch is working properlyContinue to Step 5Faulty switchReplace switch Op. 1060G38
Faulty wiringRenew the wiring See E5050 DIESEL ENGINES ELECTRONIC MANAGEMENT
5INJECTOR HIGH PRESSURE CHECKAll OKProblems metOperation
Use an Examiner to check fuel pump power uptake is correct by performing the test See Test 1040AA Check supply voltage' and absorption current' Continue to Step 6Absorption not correctReplace the pump Op. 1040A70
6CHECK EGRAll OKProblems metOperation
With the Examiner diagnostic equipment connected to the diagnostic socket, carry out the active diagnosis of the EGR electric valveCheck the condition of the EGR system, particularly to ensure that the EGR is not blocked openContinue to Step 7EGR wiring brokenRestore correct operation See E5050 DIESEL ENGINES ELECTRONIC MANAGEMENT
EGR valve faultReplace EGR Op. 1080C74
EGR system mechanical faultRestore correct operation
7CHECK FLOW METERAll OKProblems metOperation
Check that the flow meter is working properly by carrying out the test See Test 1060GB Check on operation of air flow meter Continue to Step 8Flow meter signal too high with consequent increased exhaust gas recirculationReplace the flow meter Op. 1060G10
8CHECK FLOW METERAll OKProblems metOperation
Check the correct operation of the accelerator pedal potentiometer as described in the test See Test 1068AB Check operation of accelerator pedal potentiometer Continue to Step 9Anomalous potentiometer operationReplace potentiometer Op. 1068A20
Electrical wiring defectiveRenew the wiring See E5050 DIESEL ENGINES ELECTRONIC MANAGEMENT
9CHECK ON TURBOCHARGERAll OKProblems metOperation
Check the operation of the turbocharger as described in the Test See Test 1064BA Check turbo presure Continue to Step 11Turbocharger faultyReplace the turbocharger unit Op. 1064A19
10Continue as instructed by the testerAll OKProblems metOperation
Check that the fault is no longer presentEnd of diagnosisFault persists: control unit faultyReplace control unit Op. 1060G80
