Diagnostics of malfunctions

The description of diagnostics of electronic control systems and diagnostic codes are provided in Head engine Electric equipment.

In this Section the simplest scheme of clarification of the reasons of malfunctions and the refusals occurring in knots and systems of a vehicle is offered. Refusals and their possible reasons are broken into groups on the basis of the relation to certain components or car systems, such as the engine, cooling system, etc., besides, in the text references to Chapters and Sections concerning these problems are given.

Remember that the successful conclusion of search of causes of defect at all is not the black magic available to only skilled professional mechanics, and is defined by a combination of a certain knowledge and a patient, systematic approach to problem research. To move always follows from simple to difficult, to lead up each check to the logic end and to try not to pass the obvious facts - everyone can forget to fill fuel in a fuel tank or to leave for the night included lighting devices.

And at last, always it is necessary to try to make an accurate picture of development of malfunction and to undertake the corresponding steps on recurrence prevention. If refusal of electric equipment was the result of violation of quality of contact, check at the same time a condition of all other contacts and electric sockets of system. If the same safety lock several times in a row continues to fuse, there is no sense in its further replacement - it is necessary to try to find out a cause of failure. Remember that failure of a minor component can be a sign of violation of functioning of more important knot or the whole system.

Engine

If the petrol engine is not started, it is necessary to analyse a situation. That the engine in general could be started, should be satisfied two main conditions. In cylinders should arrive fuel - an air mix, and on a spark plug the spark should be developed. Therefore, first, it is necessary to check, whether fuel moves. Address to Head of the Power supply system and release.

To define, whether the spark is developed, it is necessary to turn out candles, to insert into tips and separately to put to weight. Thus a tip or a cable of ignition do not hold hands, and use well isolated nippers. Ask the assistant to start the engine. If the spark is absent, address to Head engine Electric equipment.

Procedures of diagnostics of an electronic control system and codes of malfunctions are given in Head engine Electric equipment.

Automatic transmission (AT)

Procedures of diagnostics of an electronic control system by transmission and codes of malfunctions are given in Head engine Electric equipment.

In view of complexity of a design of AT diagnostics of its malfunctions and repair is desirable for carrying out a component in a workshop of car-care center or representation office of the DAIMLER-BENZ company.

The common problems connected with functioning of the mechanism of switching

1. It is possible to carry the following to number of the refusals connected with violation of adjustment of draft of switching:

a) Start of the engine is possible at provisions of transmission, distinct from "R" (Parking) and “N” (Neutral).
b) Indications of the indicator of provision of transmission differ from really chosen transfer.
c) The car moves at the transmission established in the situation "R" or "N".

Then make on the car a short trip on small speed (that traces of leak did not communicate a running stream far from its source). Stop, поддомкратьте the car and by visual survey establish a leak source. More often as those act:

a) Pallet of a case of transmission: Tighten fixing bolts and/or replace pallet laying.
b) Tube of the gulf of liquid: Replace rubber consolidation in a place of an entrance of a tube in a transmission case.
c) Lines of transmission liquid: Tighten shtutserny connections or replace lines.
