Switch-off of gas injectors
The Customer Service routine: "Switch-off of gas injectors" enables any desired pair of gas injectors to be
switched off briefly in order, for example, to investigate the suspicion of incorrectly operating gas
injectors.
Experience shows that the lambda correction factor changes by approx. 0.15 – when an intact pair of gas
injectors is switched off. By switching the individual pairs of gas injectors off and then on again while
simultaneously observing the lambda correction factor, the proper operation of the gas injectors can be
verified.
Notes:
-
Individual injector pairs can be switched off with
StarDiagnosis
.
-
Switch-on conditions for this Customer Service routine are:
- engine state: idling and
- dual ignition NOT active
-
Only one pair of gas injectors can be switched off at any given time.
-
The gas injectors are only switched off temporarily; if these are not reset by Customer Service, then
they will automatically be deactivated after 10 minutes or by switching off Ter. 15.
4.3.3
Cylinder-selective ignition switch-off
The Customer Service routine: "Cylinder-selective ignition switch-off" enables the ignition of any desired
cylinder to be switched off briefly in order, for example, to investigate the suspicion of firing failures.
When the ignition of a cylinder is switched off, engine running must worsen – unless the cylinder already
failed to fire beforehand.
With the aid of the Customer Service routine it may be possible to localise the ignition failure on a
cylinder. The cause of the failure must then be examined on both the primary and the secondary side –
beginning with checking the actuation of the ignition modules by the MR via the ignition modules
themselves up to compression testing of the individual cylinders.
Notes:
-
The ignition of Individual cylinders can be switched off with
StarDiagnosis
.
-
Switch-on conditions for this function are:
- engine state: idling and
- dual ignition not active
-
The ignition can only be switched off on one cylinder at any given time.
-
The cylinder-selective switch-off of the ignition is only temporary; if these are not reset by Customer
Service, then they will automatically be deactivated after 10 minutes or by switching off Ter. 15.
