Output Diagnostic Test Mode 
(DTM) (function 03) 
     
Notes:  
     
Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) is only 
possible with engine idle and ignition switched 
on. 
     Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) is aborted 
if engine is started or an RPM signal is 
recognized. 
     In output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM), 
individual actuators (with the exception of the 
fuel injectors) are activated for approximately 1 
minute unless the next actuator is selected 
earlier by pressing the " button. 
     Actuators are checked either acoustically or by 
touch. 
     The electric Fuel Pump (FP) runs during all of 
output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM). 
     Engine must be started before repeating output 
Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM). (ECM must 
recognize an engine speed of above 300 RPM).
