Do-it-yourself repairs
Unfortunately, many checks of the injection system cannot be performed at home due to the lack of necessary test and measuring equipment. However, some work can still be done.
Procedure
The control unit cannot be checked with home equipment. Experience also shows that faults on the control unit side are extremely rare. Sensors, switches and wire connections fail much more often. Therefore, if a fault occurs, proceed as follows:
PROCEDURE
Check whether the ignition system is in order.
Check the fuel supply.
Perform a visual inspection of the injection system components (see next section).
If the fault is not found this way, review the fault list at the end of the chapter, or have the fault memory checked at a workshop. In this way, identify the possible source of the fault and check the suspect component using the test circuit diagram.
