Check DTC Memory (Function 02)



Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Memory, Checking (function 02)

NOTE:
- The operating and display module, Climatronic Control Module J255 switches automatically to "Econ" mode if, following installation of a new operating and display module, Climatronic Control Module J255, basic setting was not performed or if the pressure measured by the High Pressure Sensor G65 is too low or too high (the compressor must not be activated). This status is displayed as being a malfunction as of hardware/software version "0711". Measuring Value Blocks (Function 08)
- If, after switching on the ignition, the operating and display module, Climatronic Control Module J255 switches automatically to "Off" mode and if it is only possible to set "Def" mode with the ignition switched on (no other settings possible), the ignition has been switched on for example using a key not released for the vehicle concerned or the Instrument Cluster Control Module J285 is not transmitting a key number via the CAN-Bus comfort system (provided as of hardware/software version "0711").
- If the operating and display module, Climatronic Control Module J255 displays a number, check the DTC memory of the operating and display module, Climatronic Control Module J255 (the number "60" for example indicates a fault at the Interior Temperature Sensor Fan V42). If the display of the operating and display module, Climatronic Control Module J255 flashes and No fault is displayed in the DTC memory (e.g. with display "09"), there is a malfunction in the electronics of the operating and display module, Climatronic Control Module J255.







- With the ignition switched off, connect Diagnostic Operation System VAS 5051A for example using Diagnostic Cable - 3 Meter VAS 5051/5A and K-Lead Adapter Vas6017B VAS 6017B (or K-Lead Adapter VAS 6017A) to the 16-pin diagnostic socket in the vehicle and use address word "08" to select A/C heater electronics.
