MEMO RIZEDTHE ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE CIRCUIT
1. Pressure defect of the intake collector.
Conditions of breakdown detection by the calculator:
-the contact is taken, wait for the dialogue with the calculator to be
lost, then resume the dialogue with the calculator.
-run the engine and maintain it at a rotation ration greater than 600
ro t/min for at least 10 seconds.
Conditions of performing the diagnosing:
-defec t is present
-the defect has been memorized but is recorded in the “present” state.
SU G GESTIO N S
If the defect is only present when the engine runs, check the correctness of the clapper
po sition parameters when the acceleration pedal is free, and when it is fully pressed.
Gently press the acceleration pedal (all the way) and check whether the position of the
clapper is co nstantly increasing.
If it is not so, the information is not correct. Treat the diagnose of the clapper potentiometer.
Check the atmospheric pressure sensor.
Remedy atmospheric pressure sensor if necessary.
Check the correct connecting and the condition of the linking tube between the sensor and
the intake gallery.
Connect the 90-way terminal-tester instead of the calculator and check the insulation, the
co ntinuity and the absence of contact resistance along the circuits:
pin 16 of calculator
♦ pin B of the atmospheric pressure sensor
pin 15 of calculator
♦ pin A of the atmospheric pressure sensor
pin 78 of calculator
♦ pin C of the atmospheric pressure sensor.
Remedy if necessary.
Change the atmospheric pressure sensor if the incident persists.
The proble m is not yet solved! Consequently, the injection calculator must be changed.
CAUTION! The destruction of the calculator has probably been caused by an electric shock.
The cause of the destruction must be found before mounting a new
calcul ator.
