Fault-tracing information
- The control module is unable to run the reference phase to test the leak diagnostic unit. This may be because the conditions for starting the quick test of the fuel tank system have not been met, that the fault occurred during fault-tracing or that the fault existed before the fault-tracing began. Check that the hoses, connectors and components etc have been correctly reinstalled. Check that they are not damaged.
HINT: Cancel fault-tracing for this fault. Then read off diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) from the vehicle communication socket. Fault trace any other diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) stored in the control module.Β
- Remedy as necessary.
