EOBD - ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM
FAILURE (petrol versions)
In normal conditions, turning the ignition key to
MAR, the warning light turns on, but it should
go off when the engine has started. The initial
turning on indicates that the warning light is
working properly.
If the warning light stays on or turns on when
travelling (on certain versions together with the
message on the display):
❒
glowing steadily - means a fault in the
supply/ignition system which could cause high
emissions at the exhaust, possible lack of
performance, poor handling and high con-
sumption levels.
In these conditions it is possible to continue dri-
ving without however requiring heavy effort or
high speed from the engine. Prolonged use of
the car with the warning light on may cause
damages. Contact Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
The warning light goes off if the fault disappears,
but it is still stored by the system.
