Subsection XX (DIAGNOSTIC AND FAULT CODES)

DIAGNOSTIC AND FAULT CODESGENERAL

MONITORING SYSTEMThe Engine Management System (EMS) featuresa monitoring system that self-diagnoses variouselectrical and electronic components. This modebecomes active when the ignition key is turnedON.NOTE: Some components require the engine tobe running to be monitored (fuel injectors for ex-ample).The monitoring system continuously validatesthat the components (control modules, sensorsand actuators) are not faulty or defective. Whena malfunction is detected, the related electronicmodule(s):– Sets an active fault code.– Adapts the proper protection strategy accord-

ing to the failure.– Sends out signals to the multifunction gauge to

inform the rider of a particular condition.A fault code is an indication that a glitch or mal-function is detected by the monitoring system ofthe vehicle.If a minor fault occurs, the engine and vehicle willcontinue to operate without noticeable loss of per-formance.If a more important fault occurs, engine RPM maybe limited. The engine/vehicle will continue to op-erate with reduced performance.If a major component of the EMS fails, engineRPM will be limited as well as vehicle speed.These strategies are used to protectengine/electrical system from damage andto maintain safe operation of the vehicle. In ex-treme cases, the engine may also be completelyshut down.

Pilot Lamps for ProblematicConditionsWhen a problem is detected, a pilot lamp will turnon or blink in the multifunction gauge. If the faultthat caused the pilot lamp to come on is momen-tary, the pilot lamp may turn off automatically, ormay need to be reset by powering down the ve-hicle and then restarting it.A message may also be displayed to provide ad-ditional information related to the fault that turnedon the pilot lamp. Refer to the following chart.

NOTE: In some cases, the CHECK ENGINE mes-sage can be displayed along with other messages.

Fault Code StatesFault codes have 3 possible states:– Active– Occurred– Inactive.Click the Fault tab then click on the drop-down liston the LH lower corner.Choose the fault code state you want to display.

rmr2011-021-001_a

TYPICAL1. Drop down list

Active Fault CodesAn active fault code is an indication of a fault thatis currently triggered.The active fault may or may not compromisenormal operation of the system(s). Service ac-tion should be taken to correct the problem thatcaused the fault code.Once the fault condition(s) of the active fault is nolonger present, its state will change to "occurred".

Occurred Fault CodesAn occurred fault code indicates a fault that wasactive, but no longer is.The occurred fault does not presently affect sys-tem or component operation but is retained as ahistory of the faults that were detected.The fault may have been generated due to asystem or component that was momentarily op-erating outside normal parameters. Repeatedoccurred faults of this type should be consideredwhen troubleshooting a problem, and may requirethat maintenance action be taken.An occurred fault may also be generated whendisconnecting and reconnecting a component, re-placing a burnt fuse, when the software update ofan electronic module has been carried out, or maybe due to a momentary high or low voltage.

Inactive Fault CodesAn inactive fault code represents a fault code thatis neither active, nor occurred. It is simply part ofa list of all possible faults that can be monitoredby the ECM and multifunction gauge, which may

become active or occurred if the monitoring sys-tem detects an applicable fault. These codes canbe viewed in B.U.D.S.

How to Display Fault Codes in theMultifunction GaugeNOTE: A fault code must be in an "Active" state tobe displayed in the multifunction gauge. B.U.D.S.must be used to read all fault codes states.1. Use the selector button and scroll to Engine

Hour (EH) on the gauge.

When a minor fault occurs:– Turn ignition key OFF.– Wait 30 seconds.– Turn ignition key ON.This should change the fault state from "Active" to"Occurred".The vehicle should then operate normally.If a sensor-related fault persists, you may trydisconnecting/reconnecting the sensor.Read the following for a general approach to trou-bleshoot fault codes (active or occurred).

vmr2012-025 7


GENERAL GUIDELINES TO SOLVE FAULT CODES

CONDITION ACTION

Troubleshooting vehicle

Use B.U.D.S. to:Read fault codes.Display "Active" faults to see components currently not operating normally.Display "Occurred" faults to troubleshoot intermittent problems.Monitor system(s), sensor(s), switches and actual conditions.Activate component(s) for troubleshooting.Set components (resets etc).Know the last minute of operating conditions by using the "History" page.Know the operating conditions, if available, when a fault code occurred byusing the "More details" button in the fault page.

New fault(s) appear after a vehiclemaintenance or repair

Check sensor connections or mixed up connections.

Before vehicle maintenance:Read the electronic modules with B.U.D.S.Save and print the B.U.D.S. file (keep faults option only).

After vehicle maintenance:Read the electronic modules with B.U.D.S.Compare the fault code(s) before and after the maintenanceusing the printed copy and the current B.U.D.S. reading.Investigate only the newly fault codes.Clear all occurred faults in B.U.D.S.

Communication faults displayed as"Occurred" after module flashing

Normal behavior when flashing a moduleClear all occurred faults and check again

Sensor "Active" fault

Read the fault description in B.U.D.S.Click on the "More Details" button.Look at the "Conditions" when available.Read the "Possible Causes".Apply the "Service Actions".

Low system voltageon one modulePower problem on sensor(s)

Check related fuse(s) and relay.Check related power and ground wires.Check for common power supply to several sensors/modules(refer to POWER DISTRIBUTION AND GROUNDS).NOTE: Some sensors are supplied by the battery while others aresupplied by a module.

Low system voltageon several modules(several communication faultswill also appear)

Check battery condition and connections.Check related fuse(s) and relay.Check voltage regulator/rectifier.

High system voltage on severalmodules

A battery charger has likely been used to substitute the vehicle battery.Clear all occurred faults and check again.Check voltage regulator/rectifier.

When all modules report that amodule is missing

Check the module that is reported as missing.Check related fuse(s) and relay.Check related power and ground wires.

When several modules are in fault Search for a common problem such as a faulty sensor.

CAN buss OFF

When several modules and sensors report that a module is missing.The missing module may report CAN bus off.Check related CAN wires (continuity, short toground, short between CAN low and high).Check module pins and wiring terminals.Then, the other modules should stop reporting that module is missing.

GENERAL GUIDELINES TO SOLVE FAULT CODES

CONDITION ACTION

May have been generated due to a system or component that wasmomentarily operating outside normal parameters.

May be generated when disconnecting and reconnecting a component,replacing a burnt fuse, or may be due to a momentary high or low voltage.

Occurred fault(s)Before being "Occurred", a fault has always been "Active"for a certain time, indicating that an unexpected conditionor problem has been present during the driving cycleA frequent momentarily fault or an intermittent fault may neverbe seen as "Active" in B.U.D.S. while there is still a pending problem.This type of malfunctions can be discovered by looking atthe "Occurred" faults and then by evaluating the fault count.As long as a fault is present, it is displayed as "Active"

Fault count(0 - 255)

Low value: Suggests handling problems(connections, terminal contact/shape etc.).High value: Suggests a frequent and unsolved problem.The problem should be investigated.

Fault conditions(More details button) Look for abnormal, excessive values.

Hard to find problems

When the basic troubleshooting has been done and the faultcode(s) persists, often the problem is related to the wiringharness, connections or electromechanical components.Short to ground, to battery or between wires.Wire splices, chafing, terminal problems(pulled out, bent, out of shape, corroded etc.).Bad contacts in switch or relay.

vmr2012-025 9


ECUs share information and their systems may in-teract with each other. Certain faults may causemore than one ECU to set a fault code or indica-tion (pilot lamp or message) as the failure of somecomponents may affect the operation of severalsystems.
