Functional check on EPC warning lamp

The engine control module switches on the EPC warning lamp.

Shortly after starting the engine the EPC warning lamp goes out if no DTC in relation to the electronic throttle is stored in the DTC memory.

The switch-on signal for the malfunction lamp is transferred via CAN bus to the instrument cluster by the engine control module. Check the data exchange between engine control module and other CAN-control modules. Refer to => [ ECM Data Exchange with CAN-Bus Modules, Checking ] ECM Data Exchange With CAN-Bus Modules, Checking.
