Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) (Function 03)
Output Diagnostic Test Mode (scan tool function 03)
NOTE:
- The output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) can be activated only with the ignition switched on and the engine not running.
- The output DTM is interrupted if the engine is started, or if a rotary pulse from the ignition system is recognized.
- When operating in the output DTM, the individual output signals are actuated until the program sequence is advanced by pressing the -> button.
- Output signals are checked by listening for the sound of the component being actuated, or feeling for mechanical evidence of actuation, such as clicking, vibration, etc.
- Without letting the engine run, briefly switch the ignition off for approx. 20 seconds before repeating the output checks.
- During the entire output DTM sequence, the electric fuel pump will run.
- The output DTM will be interrupted after 10 minutes.
The following components are actuated in sequence:
1. Cylinder 1 fuel injector -N30-
2. Cylinder 2 fuel injector -N31-
3. Cylinder 3 fuel injector -N32-
4. Cylinder 4 fuel injector -N33-
5. Cylinder 5 fuel injector -N83-
6. Cylinder 6 fuel injector -N84-
7. EVAP canister purge regulator valve -N80-
8. Secondary AIR solenoid valve -N112-
9. Secondary AIR pump relay -J299-
10. Intake manifold tuning valve -N156- (change-over valve)
11. Camshaft adjustment 1 (Valves -1- and -2- for camshaft adjustment, -N205- and -N208-)

Cylinder 1 Fuel Injector-N30
NOTE: The fuel pump relay must be activated, the fuel pump must run, and you must clearly hear the flow of fuel in the fuel pressure regulator. If the fuel pump does not run, check the fuel pump relay and connections. Testing and Inspection
- Operate throttle valve at throttle body.
As soon as the Closed Throttle Position (CTP) switch opens, cylinder 1 fuel injector must be actuated (click) 5 times.
To check remaining fuel injectors:
- Press -> button and open throttle valve again.
As soon as the Closed Throttle Position (CTP) switch opens, the applicable fuel injector must be actuated (click) 5 times.
- Repeat for each fuel injector.
To skip individual tests:
- Press -> button to advance through program sequence.
If one or more of the fuel injectors is not actuated:
- Check fuel injectors.Refer to "Fuel Injectors, Checking" Testing and Inspection
