What does this fault code mean?
This is an event-controlled information code and does not show a fault in the control module. It is set when the engine speed has been outside the limit for engine stop. The causes are given as an overloaded engine or an incorrectly calculated ethanol content.
Possible causes
- No fault that needs remedying causes this; the code is informational.
- Overloaded engine
- Incorrectly calculated ethanol content
What you can do
- 1No special fault-tracing is needed for this code, since it is an information code
- 2If the engine has been heavily overloaded, this may explain the code
- 3Check that the fuel you have filled up with is of the type the car is intended for, since an unexpected ethanol content can give a wrong calculation
- 4If you have a diagnostic tool, read the fault status with the engine running to see whether the code is active now
Symptoms you may notice1
- No noticeable symptoms for the driver
General guidance for car owners. Diagnosis on the car can point to a different cause.
