Requirements
^ The respective fuses of the Motronic fuel injection and ignition system must be OK.
^ Battery voltage must be at least 11.5 volts.
^ All electrical consumers such as lights and rear window defroster must be switched off.
^ If vehicle is equipped with an A/C system, it must be switched off.

^ There must not be any DTCs stored in DTC memory, Diagnostic mode 3: Check DTC memory.
Let vehicle stand for approx. 12 hours with engine switched off under the following conditions:
^ Intake air temperature 10 to 50° C. Diagnostic mode 1: Check measured values; PID 15: Intake Air Temperature (IAT).
^ Coolant temperature approx. intake air temperature (10 to 50° C), Diagnostic mode 1: Check measuring values; PID 5, Coolant temperature.
Work procedure
- Connect diagnostic tester.
- Start engine and let run at idle for at least 15 minutes.
- Perform a 15 minute road test in the highest gear or in the highest driving mode on a level driving surface.
The following operating conditions must be met during this road test:
- Engine speed approx. 1800 to 2200 RPM, Diagnostic mode 1: Check measuring values; PID 12, engine rotations per minute (RPM).
- Vehicle speed constant 90 km/h, Diagnostic mode 1: Check measuring values; PID 13, Vehicle speed.
Observe the safety precautions that apply to road tests.
- Read readiness code.
