6 Mass air flow, real = kg/h Measured air consumption from the mass air flow (MAF) sensor.
Normal value is approximately 8-13 kg/h at idling speed and warm engine.
7 Air consumption = mg/stroke Air consumption per crankshaft revolution.
Measurement range 0-1,389 mg/stroke.
A measurement of the engine load. Normal value is approximately 100 mg/stroke when idling with the engine at operating temperature.
8 MAF real, MAF calculated, idle = kg/h The difference between the measured consumption from the mass air flow (MAF) sensor and a calculated reference value.
The value is only applicable during turbocharger (TC) control.
9 Battery voltage = V Battery voltage after the system relay.
Normal value is 13.5 -14.5 V when the generator (GEN) is charging.
10 Air temperature °C Intake air temperature measured after the charge air cooler (CAC)).
Measurement range -48 to +142 °C.
11 Ambient pressure = mbar Atmospheric pressure, normal value is approximately 1000 mbar at sea level. The value varies depending on other circumstances.
12 Injection time = ms Injector opening time.
The normal value is approximately 2 ms when the engine is idling at operating temperature.
13 Lambda adaptation, part load = % The value indicates how much the injection period at part load has been adjusted compared to a reference value.
The value is first updated after the engine has been revved up.
14 Lambda adaptation, idle = ms The value indicates how much the injection period at idling speed has been adjusted compared to a reference value.
The value is first updated after the engine has been revved up.
15 Ignition angle = °  
Measurement range 72° before top dead center (TDC) to 23° after top dead center (TDC).
Normal value when idling is approximately 0-15°.
16 Lambda status O/L= Open Loop, fuel trim not active
C/L= Closed Loop, fuel trim active
17 Lambda integrator Short-term fuel trim oscillates between -5 and +5 at lambda = 1 when the engine is idling at operating temperature.
18 Oxygen sensor front signal (Lambda) = V Voltage from the front heated oxygen sensor (HO2S).
Measurement range 0 -1 V.
Oscillates between 0 and 1 V when fuel trim is activated.
19 Oxygen sensor signal, rear = V Voltage from the rear heated oxygen sensor (HO2S).
Measurement range 0 -1 V.
Oscillates between 0 and 1 V when the three-way catalytic converter (TWC) is cold (>300 °C).
Stabilizes at 0.2-0.7 V when the three-way catalytic converter (TWC) is at operating temperature (<300 °C)
20 Idle duty cycle = % Idle air control (IAC) valve opening.
Measurement range 0 - 100%.
The normal value is approximately 20-40% when idling with the engine at operating temperature.
21 Idle air trim adaptation = %  
The value shows by how much idle air control (IAC) valve opening has been adjusted in relation to a predetermined value.
Measurement range -50 to +50%.
22 Idle adaptation, A/C = % Idle air trim adaptation with the A/C compressor activated.
The value shows by how much idle air control (IAC) valve opening has been adjusted in relation to a reference value.
23 Turbo control valve duty cycle = % Turbocharger (TC) control valve opening.
Measurement range 0 - 100%.
A value over 0% means the engine power is regulated using the valve.
The value only applies when the turbocharger control valve is activated.
24 EVAP duty cycle = % EVAP valve opening. Measurement range 0-100%. 0% EVAP valve shut. 100% EVAP valve fully open. The intermediate values depend on the opening of the EVAP valve
25 A/C-pressure = mbar Pressure in the air conditioning (A/C) system.
Measurement range 0 - 3442 mbar.
26 A/C demand = Displays whether the engine control module (ECM) has requested that the ECC control module starts the air conditioning (A/C) compressor.
The A/C-compressor is permitted to start if the air conditioning (A/C) pressure is below a parameter.
Yes = ECC requests that the A/C compressor starts.
No = ECC does not request that the A/C compressor starts.
27 A/C relay Yes = A/C relay activated.
No = A/C relay not activated.
28 Immo locked = NO = Immobilizer control module permits start.
Yes = Immobilizer control module does not permit start.
29 VIN learned = Yes = Engine control module (ECM) has learned the VIN-code.
No = Engine control module (ECM) has not learned any VIN-code.
30 Faulty VIN = Yes = Different VIN codes in the immobilizer control module and engine control module (ECM).
No = Immobilizer control module and engine control module (ECM) have the same VIN-code.
The parameter is relevant only when the communication between the immobilizer control module and the engine control module (ECM) is functioning.
31 Manifold pressure = hPa The pressure in the intake system.
Measurement range 0 -2400 mbar. Normal value when idling is approximately 400 mbar.
32 Camshaft position = ° The camshaft position in relation to crankshaft.
Measurement range -66° - 30°. The value varies depending on how camshaft is controlled. Camshaft control only occurs when the engine is cold.

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
