Emission control and OBD Our knowledge for your work SERVICE TIPS & INFOS POSTER INSIDE
OBD = On-Board Diagnostic System The European on-board diagnostic system (EOBD) is still virgin territory to many independent garages. The Emission control and OBD from the PIERBURG series Service Tips & Infos provides easily understandable information on the complex subject self-diagnostics in motor vehicles. For us, it is of particular importance to impart system skills because the component indicated as a faulty component by the OBD system is not the actual cause of the failure or fault. And this is where an expert with system skills is needed. In addition to information on the structure and function of the systems, potential faults and relationships between diagnostic trouble code and the cause of the fault are also dealt with. The brochure also includes practical instructions on error diagnostics and fault clearance on emission-relevant components. The contents of this brochure are mainly based on practical cases experienced by the PIERBURG technical after-sales service department. It is intended as an everyday help, in particular for error diagnostics work on vehicles equipped with OBD systems.
Systems and diagnosis 4 with PIERBURG products Diagnostic instructions A malfunction of a component in the secondary air system will often cause damage to several components. A frequently occurring error is a malfunctioning secondary air pump. Almost always damage is caused by exhaust gas condensates in the pump. During the repair the actual cause of the damage is often not detected and the secondary air pump is just replaced. The cause of the damage remains in the vehicle and can cause the secondary air pump to malfunction again. For this reason, when there is damage, all associated components must be checked. For example, stuck non-return valves are classified by OBD as malfunctions of the secondary air pump even if they are working properly. Moreover, damage to the secondary air system can cause errors that are attributed to other components by the error detection. Fig. 28: condensate in the secondary air pump Fig. 29: secondary air pump corroded electric connections Fig. 30: cut-off secondary air valve damage to the diaphragm and valve plate due to condensates Fig. 31: deposits in the non-return valve Malfunction Possible causes/errors Possible solutions/actions loud whistle ( howling ) after cold start SLP generates noises SLP fails repeatedly exhaust pipe noises or smell of exhaust gas in the engine compartment Bearing corroded with condensates. Lines and insulation destroyed by conden sates. EUV incorrectly connected (to wrong cables). Leaks in the exhaust gas tract or in the se condary air system, between the exhaust gas manifold and the cut-off secondary air valve or non-return valve. If the SLP causes noises, replace it and determine the cause of the damage as described under fault codes P0410 and P0411. Check the ARV and the EUV. If there are several EUVs in the vehicle, ensure that the connections are not mixed up. Let the secondary air pump run still installed (externally powered). Determine the leaky places (e.g. using leak detection spray). Replace faulty line or gasket. Attention: When the line between the SLP and the exhaust manifold is scorched, proceed as for fault codes P0410 and P0411.

OBD On-Board-Diagnosis and PIERBURG Products Fault codes often caused by the system. Fault indicator/malfunction indicator light MIL The fault indicator lights up continuously, when the ignition is switched on (lamp function check) when a fault is detected during the self test of the control unit after an emissions-relevant fault, when permissible emission values are exceeded. The fault indicator flashes when faults occur that lead to cylinder shut-off or to damage/failure of the catalytic converter (e. g. misfiring).
