Entering Self-Diagnostics (Ignition System) Control Functions: Notes

The system monitors the operation of certain components by operating the item(s) in question. When the component or switch is operated according to a set procedure, the LED will display a 3-digit code. Failure to display a code indicates the control unit has failed to detect operation of the component/switch. In this case, the fault lies with the component/switch, connectors and/or wiring.

The functional check system can also test whether components/switches are correctly wired. As an example, it can be used to check whether the permanent/magnet generator (engine speed sensor) and wiring are intact if the engine fails to start.
