Some issues, HELP! Loren?

[pete95zhn]

Durametric shows 5821 Version Coding when reading the faults from ABS/PSM. Instrument panel says " ABS failure" and PSM failure". Any idea about this, like could it be just a matter of PIWIS / PST-2 re-coding?

Then the "Generator failure" is also on all the time. That doesn't really surprise me, because generator's DFM-pin is not connected to Motronic's C19-pin. What surprises me is that there's no such wire in the engine's wiring loom...and X59/2-8 pin is missing. Anyone?

Is Motronic-to-radiator cooling fan -control grounding or not? IMO Motronic grounds controlling relays, but the blowers doesn't start at all.

Oh yes, this is a M96.70 to C2 chassis conversion. It runs, but those issues appeared. And I haven't yet driven it at all, it's still on jackstands. ( ABS, PSM & sensors... )

What year C2 chassis (so I know which ABS system it has)?

[pete95zhn]

'00, originally with PSM & ABS 5.7.

That generator wiring issue seems to be a '01 peculiarity, I did not find it from '02 or '05 turbo wiring diagram. The engine should be from '01 chassis, at least according to the chassis number I got from the seller. The Motronic box is also ´01.

Um... ABS 5.7 did not go into the C2 until 2002. Is this a C4?

[pete95zhn]

A '00 ( xxxZYSxxx ) C2. Quote from the Workshop Manual:

PSM component arrangement

PSM (Porsche Stability Management) is installed as

standard in the 911 Carrera 4 (996) and 911 Carrera 4S

(996). PSM variants: production launch with PSM 5.3

and as of model year 2000 (Y-range) PSM 5.7.

The 911 Carrera (996) is equipped with PSM 5.7 as of

model year 2000 (Y-range) on special request.

The lateral acceleration sensor is integrated in the

rate-of-turn sensor as of PSM 5.7 (as of model year 2000)

(rate-of-turn sensor installation position: PSM 5.7 in front

of the centre console / PSM 5.3 underneath the seat on

the right).

As of PSM 5.7 the components: control unit, return pump

relay, and solenoid valve relay are located in the hydraulic

unit.

For the ABS check the MAF and the brake lights (switch) - if either of these are bad then you will get both ABS and PSM failures.

If both are okay then I think you may need a PST2 or PIWIS to diagnose further.

[pete95zhn]

Previous issues are more or less solved, but some new ones are emerged. Rough idle would be the worst of them.

Conditions:

-no faults from Durametric, no warnings at instrument panel

-rough idle, below 800 rpm

-Durametric's actual values show:

*no misfires

*rough running values cylinders 2-3 & 5-6 around 6, 1 & 4 around -10.

*lambda before CAT 1 about 1.0, before CAT 2 about 1.1 - 1.2. RH CAT starts to glow after a couple of minutes of stationary idling...

*if injectors 2, 3. 5. or 6 are shut down from Drive links, idle actually gets better...rpm rises and stabilizes.

*if injectors 1 or 4 are shut down, the engine stalls.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?? Is there a hardware or software problem? How can I check if all injectors are really working, I have my doubts about one from bank 2...

Did you disconnect the battery or reset the DME? If so, that may be caused by the relearning process.

OK, battery was disconnected.
