Symptoms

  • Intermittently appearing and disappearing error codes
  • Intermittent engine instability
  • Check Engine light is on (possibly intermittently)
  • Random failures during overclocking
  • Unstable idle speed

Causes

  • Unstable internal ECU reference voltage
  • Intermittent short circuit or poor contact in the connector
  • Vibration effect on damaged wiring
  • Temperature dependent sensor fault
  • Corrosion in the connector creating variable resistance

How to Fix

  1. Use an oscilloscope to monitor the voltage stability of circuit F in real time
  2. Carry out diagnostics while driving - some faults only appear when vibrating
  3. Carefully inspect the connectors and wiring of circuit F for intermittent short circuits.
  4. Check the grounding of the ECU and the cleanliness of the contact surfaces
  5. If you suspect a temperature dependence, repeat the diagnostics on a warm engine.
  6. Check the ECU in a specialized workshop if the external cause is unknown
