Diagnostic Mode 6: Check Test Of Parts Not Constantly Monitored



Mode 6: Check Test Results Of Components That Are Not Continuously Monitored

This diagnostic mode displays the test results of emission relevant components and systems which are not continuously monitored.

The values of the individual test results must reach the specified value or must be within the min.- and max.- limits.


Test-ID Components
01: Catalytic converter
03: Secondary Air Injection (AIR) system
05: Tank ventilation system

Test-ID 01: Catalytic converter

Test requirements:
- No DTCs in DTC memory; check DTC memory "Mode 3: Check DTC memory". Diagnostic Mode 3: Check DTC Memory
- Coolant temperature at least 80 degree C "Mode 1: Check measuring values "; "PID 05: Cooling fluid temperature". Diagnostic Mode 1: Check Measured Values

Work procedure

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of accident during road tests, always observe safety precautions. Service Precautions

- Connect diagnostic tester. Diagnostic Tester, Connecting
- Perform a 15 minute road test in the highest gear or in the highest driving mode on a level driving surface.
