About Trouble Codes




Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) table


NOTE:
- Next, all possible malfunctions that can be recognized by the parking assistance and printed out by the VAS5051 tester are listed by their 5-digit DTC.
- DTC memory stores all static and sporadic malfunctions: If a malfunction occurs and persists For at least 2 seconds, it is identified as a static malfunction. If a malfunction does not occur again, it is registered as sporadic. In addition, "sporadic" is indicated on display.
- When the ignition is switched on, all existing malfunctions are automatically re-classified as sporadic malfunctions and will only register as static malfunctions if they still occur after testing.
- Sporadic malfunctions which no longer occur during 50 driving cycles (ignition on at least 5 minute, vehicle speed greater than 30 km/h) are erased automatically.
- Do not immediately replace components that the VAS5051 suggests are malfunctioning, instead: Check wire connections and harness connectors to these components according to wiring diagram. Also check Ground (GND) connections according to wiring diagram. This is particularly valid when malfunctions are displayed as "sporadic".
- After repair, DTC memory must be checked again and erased.
