- Take vehicle for a test drive and check whether
vehicle speed appears in display field 3.
- If vehicle speed does not appear, raise the
vehicle (preferably using a lift) until front left
wheel is clear of the ground.

- Connect diode test lamp between socket 3 (B+) and socket 54 (vehicle
speed signal).
- Switch ignition on and turn front left wheel by hand.
The diode test lamp should flash (very brief flashes).
- If diode test lamp does not flash, check for open circuit or short to B+
or Ground (GND) in wiring between instrument panel and terminal 54
on engine control module connector.

Fuel tank level signal, checking
Note:
The Engine Control Module (ECM) receives the
fuel tank level signal from the instrument
cluster.
The processed signal enters on terminal 30 the
Engine Control Module (ECM) and is used to
determine certain malfunctions (e.g.: misfire)

- Check wiring from test box socket 30 to
instrument cluster according to wiring diagram
for an open circuit and short circuit to B+/Ground
(GND).

If the cause of the malfunction "Data Bus Powertrain Malfunction"
cannot be found in the data bus wires, check whether one of the
control modules is causing the malfunction.
At this stage all the control modules which communicate via the CAN data
bus are disconnected. The ignition is switched off. - Check bus wires for short to B+ and short to Ground (GND).
