6 PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
This chapter supplies some useful indications for the installer to solve some problems that could arise with this
new system.
The ECU does not communicate
• Lack of power supply to the ECU
• The communication port configured on
the PC is not correct
• The communication cable is faulty
• Turn the engine on
• Verify whether the configured COM port
is correct in UTILITIES-COMMUNICATION
• Replace the communication cable
The ECU does not switch off
• The communication with the PC is still
active
• Disconnect the communication cable or
exit from the SEQUENT 24 programme
and wait till the ECU is switched off
The changeover switch does not visualise the GAS level
• The changeover switch is in its petrol
position (level LEDs are switched off)
• The changeover switch does not communicate (level central LEDs are blinking)
• Changeover to gas and verify the level
visualisation.
• Verify the changeover switch harness or
replace the changeover switch. In these
cases, the cause could also be the ECU.
Therefore verify whether the ECU communicates with the PC interface and, if
necessary, try to replace it.
The changeover switch does not communicate
• The level green central LEDs and the
orange rectangular LED are blinking
• In this condition the vehicle goes on running on petrol or on gas according to the
changeover switch position. Nevertheless
there is no information on the operation
and it is therefore proper to verify the harness or replace the changeover switch.
The changeover switch does not switch
on
• The changeover switch harness is cut off
• The 5Afuse is cut off
• The changeover switch fails
• The ECU does not switch on
• Verify the changeover switch harness
continuity.
• Replace the 5A fuse
• Replace the changeover switch.
• Verify the ECU operation.
The vehicle works wrongly on gas
• The injectors positives are not cut correctly
• Make sure you have cut all the petrol
injectors positives
• Verify you have cut as close as possible
to the injectors.
The Petrol and GAS injectors do not
inject simultaneously (you will find it
hard to make the self-mapping)
• The injectors positives are not cut correctly
• Try to start the vehicle up with the gas
injectors disconnected: if the vehicle
starts up (even running bad) then there is
a problem in the injectors positive cut.
The vehicle does not start up
• Inversion between RIGHT and LEFT harness
• Verify whether the injectors are connected
correctly. If the RIGHTharness and the LEFT
harness are inverted, trying to start up, the
tension on the White/Green wire is still low.
The vehicle does not change over to
gas.
• The injectors are not driven to the
ground.
•The battery bond fails.
• Verify the connection of the B1 Pin
injectors ground wire.
• Verify the connection of the C8 Pin battery ground wire.
The ECU does not switch on or it resets
itself in the gas operation
• The connection to the battery positive is
lacking or is cut off.
• The connection to the injectors positive is
lacking or is cut off.
• Verify the connection of the A1 Pin battery positive wire.
• Verify the connection of the A7 Pin
injectors positive wire.
WHAT’S HAPPENED?
WHAT TO DO
PROBLEM
The vehicle changes over to petrol in
cut-off.
• The RPM signal is taken from the coil
negative. This signal is set to zero in cutoff.
• Take an RPM signal different from the
coils one.
The vehicle stalls while changing over
to gas.
• The 15Afuse is cut off.
• Any of the actuators relay wires is
disconnected.
• The relay fails.
• The White/Green wire is inverted with the
White/Brown one (in this case you will
hear the relay ringing).
• Verify the 15Afuse.
• Verify the connections on the actuators
relay.
• Replace the relay.
• Verify the connection of the
White/Green and White/ Brown wires.
