Fault Code Scenario 2

Fault Code Scenario 2:

One or more of the fault codes 0059, 0060, 0063, 0064, 0271, 0272, 0275, and 0276 is/are present in ME-SFI control module. The fault codes are recorded as current and/or stored in the fault memory. If current and/or stored, these codes are caused by a malfunctioning camshaft adjustment solenoid.

Applicable Models: Equipped with M272 Engine Up to Serial No. 2729..30 759427 or M273 Engine Up to Serial No. 2739..30 193592. Engines produced after serial nos. listed above are already equipped with improved camshaft adjustment solenoids (A272 051 01 77).

Procedure 2:

Diagnose each DTC as per Star Diagnosis. If it is determined the solenoid is faulty, replace with solenoid A272 051 01 77 as per appropriate WIS instructions. Refer to WIS instructions AR05.20-P-7295* (* - applies to a specific model designation e.g. AR05.20-P-7295RTB model 251).

Note:
For this scenario only, replace the solenoid that has a corresponding fault code. Copy of the SDS short test and ME Control Module log file related to DTC code must accompany returned parts. If the documentation is missing or does not support the diagnosis, the warranty claim may be debited (i.e. only two Fault Codes but all four solenoids are changed or low voltage situation might result in a code to be stored but not current).
