Diagnosis – Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Memory (CF)

Preparation for Test:

1. Check Fuse F1–22, and F4–3 ok,
2. Check fuse F4–8, F4–9 (for left front ESA control module (N32/1).
3. Check fuse F4–13, F4–14 (for right front ESA control module (N32/2).
4. Connect the Hand-Held Tester (HHT) to X11/4, according to diagram,
see section 0.
