Conditions




Fault symptoms
Engine will not start.


WARNING
The electronic ignition system generates a tension of 40 000 volts. This tension can be lethal for people with heart problems or pacemakers. The ignition system must therefore be treated with the greatest respect.



IMPORTANT
The ignition discharge module must be standing with the ignition coils facing down during the test so that the transformer oil will provide good insulation to the high tension part of the ignition coil.


Fault symptoms
Idling speed drops when gear selector moved from P or N.

Conditions
No diagnostic trouble codes.
