EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD (European On Board
Diagnosis) system continuously
monitors the engine emission system
components. Furthermore, the sys-
tem warns the driver of deterioration
concerning the emission system
components by means of the instru-
ment panel warning light Ucoming
on with message “ENGINE CON-
TROL SYSTEM FAULT”.The objective is to:
– monitor system efficiency;
– warn when failures can increase
emissions over the threshold estab-
lished by the European regulations;
– warn of the need to replace dete-
riorated components.
Furthermore, the system is
equipped with a connector for inter-
facing with specific tools used to
read the error codes stored in the
control unit memory along with a set
of diagnostic and engine specific
parameters. This check can also be
performed by traffic controller
agents.Contact a Lancia
Dealership as soon as
possible if the instrument
panel Uwarning light either
does not come on when the key is
turned to MAR or comes on, with
fixed or flashing light, when trav-
elling together with message
“ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM
FAULT”. Warning light Uoper-
ation can be checked by traffic
controller agents. Comply with
the regulations in force in the
country where you are travelling.
IMPORTANTAfter eliminating
the problem, your Lancia
Dealershipwill run a bench test to
fully check the system. In some
cases, a long road test may be
required.
