computer of anothe r vehicle.
C heck connection between CLIP te ster and the vehicle diagnostic soc ket (cable condition).
C heck the condition of the injection fuse s, engine and cockpit.
M end if necessary.
C heck the presence of the supply +12 V at pin 16 and of the mass at pins 4 and 5 of the dia gnostic
device socket.
M end if necessary.
C onnect the 90 ways terminal box instead of the computer and check the insulation, continuity
and abse nce of the parasite resistance of the connections between: pin 28 injection computer > mass

RECOMMEND AT IONS Do not consult this diagnostic but before performing a complete
checking by means of the CLI P tester.
Ch eck that starter is well operating
Ch eck there is petrol in the fuel tank (fuel indicator failure).
Ensure that vehic le is supplied with adequate fuel.
Ch eck tha t supply cir cuit hoses are not broken (espe cially further to a dismounting)
Ch eck the condition of the fuel filter
Ch eck the condition of the fuel tank
Ch eck that fuel tank aeration is taking place.
Ch eck the electric supply of the fuel pump.
Ch eck the good operation of the choke sensor.
Ch eck the motor of the idling regula tor.
In order to unblock it, you may slightly hit it.
Disconnect the connection hose between the canister purging valve and the intake manifold.
Cl amp the connection hose in order to stop the air passing.
If there are no more disturbances, the cause is the canister purging valve.
