Group 30: Electrical system Malfunctions, MID 164

6
Change the potentiometer if the fault remains.

7
Erase any fault codes for the HCU by cutting the cur-
rent with the ignition key.

8
Check the engine speed/shift function.

Voltage measurement of HCU voltage to

potentiometer in throttle control
1
Remove the connector from the throttle control poten-
tiometer. Connect adapter cable 885675 between the
throttle control cable’s connector and the throttle con-
trol potentiometer.

2
Use multimeter 9812519 for voltage measurement.

3
Turn the starter key to start position.

Gear shift control Measurement Nominal

points value
Neutral 1-2 U ≈ 3.0 Volt
Neutral 1-3 U ≈ 1.5 Volt
Forwards, idle 1-3 U ≈ 1.3 Volt
Forwards, max.
throttle 1-3 U ≈ 0.3 Volt
Reverse, idle 1-3 U ≈ 1.8 Volt
Reverse, maximum
speed reverse 1-3 U ≈ 2.8 Volt

Suitable action if a faulty voltage level is suspected.

1
Check the electronic control as in ”Checking the po-
tentiometer in electronic controls”.

2
If the fault remains, try using a different HCU.
