Use and maintenance
DDS tester
The main functions of the DDS tester can be summarised as follows:
- Retrieval of errors (faults) of the ignition-injection system stored in the engine control unit memory and their subsequent
deletion, if required.
- Reading of engine parameters (rpm, coolant and air temperature, atmospheric pressure, throttle opening, battery voltage,
injection times and ignition advance, etc.).
- Active diagnostics. Activation of ignition-injection system transducers to test functionality and control signals (fuel pump,
ignition coils, rev counter, injectors, etc.). With this function it is also possible to enter the code to override the immobilizer.
- Road test. Allows the technician to store engine parameters recorded within a previously specified engine speed range interval.
The resulting parameters can then be analysed and displayed once they have been acquired.
- With specific sensors connected, the DDS tester can read electrical voltages, current, temperature, timing belt tension, and
pressure values (lubrication and fuel supply circuits for example).
Checking and adjusting timing belt tension
Notes
The on-screen icons used during this procedure are explained in a table at the end of this section.
Notes
This operation, which is performed using the DDS tester, has the advantage that it can be carried out on both timing belts with
the engine still installed on the frame. An optical reader is connected to the DDS tester. The optical reader has a green LED that
serves to determine that the reader is correctly positioned in front of the belt to be tested. It is also equipped with an infrared
transmitter (A) and receiver (B) designed to detect oscillations of the belt when caused to vibrate with the flick of a finger.
Remove the spark plugs.
Position the crankshaft so that the piston of the horizontal cylinder is at TDC of its power stroke.
This is achieved by aligning the timing mark (C) on the timing driveshaft pulley (28) with the reference notch (D) on the clutch
cover (20).
