Notes:  
 
When diagnostic conditions are fulfilled (  display group 042) display group 043 shows the current flank rise and/or flank 
fall times. After diagnosis is ended, the diagnostic times shown are those that were recognized when the most recent 
diagnosis was carried out.  If the limit values (flank rise time 90 ms/flank fall time 85 ms) are exceeded, the diagnosis is recognized as not OK. The 
flank rise and/or flank fall times now continue to be checked, while the display values in display group 034 are 
incremented with each additional test. However, the limit values can also be exceeded because of combustion misfiring 
being recognized. In this case, the malfunction "Bank X probe Y signal too slow" is not stored in DTC memory, but" Cyl. x 
Combustion misfiring recognized" is stored.

 Display group 044 (Diagnostic conditions for three way catalytic converter diagnosis, bank 1 and bank 2)  
Notes:  
 
When the diagnostic conditions are fulfilled (display fields 3 and 4) by using the heated oxygen sensors in front of and 
behind the three way catalytic converter, at each start the Engine Control Module (ECM) carries out a diagnosis of the 
three way catalytic converter. During this diagnosis, the deterioration rate of the three way catalytic converter is 
determined. The deterioration rate of the three way catalytic converter is displayed when display groups 035 and 036 are 
displayed. However, this diagnosis is "cross-blocked." That means that before the three way catalytic converter diagnosis 
can be evaluated, a result of the heated oxygen sensor diagnosis must be available to the Engine Control Module (ECM). 
 If a malfunction is stored in DTC memory that affects the heated oxygen sensors in front of or behind the three way 
catalytic converter, the heated oxygen sensor diagnosis can not be carried out and the three way catalytic converter 
diagnosis can not be evaluated. 
 If in display group 029, display field 1 the value of the three way catalytic converter diagnosis is not set to "0" during 
regeneration of the readiness code, and/or a malfunction is stored in DTC memory that affects the three way catalytic 
converter, display group 044 can be used to selectively call the diagnostic conditions (display fields 3 and 4). 
 If in display group 029, display field 1 the value of the three way catalytic converter diagnosis and the value of the heated 
oxygen sensor diagnosis are not set to "0" during regeneration of the readiness code, display group 044, display field 1 
can be used to determine whether the three way catalytic converter diagnosis has been carried out inside the engine 
control module, but the value of the three way catalytic converter diagnosis under display group 029, display field 1 can 
not be set to "0" because the heated oxygen sensor diagnosis has not been carried out.

 The diagnostic conditions are only achieved during a trip of approx. 1-1/2 to 5 minutes at 80-100 km/h (50-63 mph) with 
manual transmission in 4th or 5th gear, or automatic transmission selector lever in "D" position, preferably in 4th gear. 
However, the diagnostic conditions are only displayed 4 minutes after engine start, because until that time diagnosis is 
prohibited. If the diagnostic conditions are fulfilled, diagnosis is active. Now, obtaining a diagnostic result requires a test 
drive of approx. 1-1/2 to 5 min under the diagnostic conditions. 
 If a malfunction is stored in DTC memory that affects diagnostic conditions 1 and 2, the diagnostic conditions can not be 
obtained. In this case repair the malfunction   "DTC memory, checking and erasing,"   page 01
-13
 . If a malfunction is 
stored that involves the heated oxygen sensors in front of three way catalytic converter, the diagnostic conditions can be 
achieved, but the diagnosis result can not be OK. 
 If the effect of the three way catalytic converter is recognized as OK during the first diagnosis, the diagnosis is 
discontinued. If the effect (conversion) is recognized as not OK, the three way catalytic converter diagnosis is continued. If 
the diagnosis will be repeated selectively and/or repeated after an OK diagnosis, stop the engine and start again.

 Notes on display field 1:  
Display field 1 shows which diagnosis has been carried out or has not been carried out yet. If the three way catalytic converter 
diagnosis is carried out inside the engine control module, but the heated oxygen sensor diagnosis has not been carried out 
yet, the three way catalytic converter diagnosis is not evaluated and therefore the deterioration rate is not set in display 
groups 035 and 036.

08. When leaving "Basic Setting" function 04, oxygen sensor control is automatically active again. 
 You can switch back and forth between "Basic Setting" function 04 and "Read Measuring Value Block" function 08 by 
pressing buttons -4- and -8- on the VAG 1551 scan tool.
