(5) Malfunction: When the engine is started, the beep is activated and the indicator light of the contact sensor of the fuel pressure
detector remains on.
Verification procedure:
Make sure that the 57th numeric parameter on the input display operation window is set to “1”. If on the screen
the specified value of “1” is displayed, check the input circuit from pin 8 on the JPE / RS1LS3 connector of the right control unit for
a short circuit, and then make sure that the contact sensor of the fuel pressure signal is working properly.
(6) Malfunction sign: When the engine is started, an audible signal is activated while the illumination light of the cab lock contact
sensor remains on.
Verification procedure:
Make sure that the 56th numeric parameter on the input display window is set to “1”. If on the screen
the specified value of “1” is displayed, check the input circuit from pin 16 on the JPE / RS1 connector of the right control unit for a
short circuit, and then make sure that the contact sensor of the cab lock signal is working properly.

III. Checking and Troubleshooting the Control Unit

If the instrument cluster is working properly, analyze the possible causes of malfunctions by viewing the operating
windows of the input/output signals. If it is decided to check all the input and output signals of the system, first
make sure that the main function circuits of the left control unit are in good working order and connected correctly,
as well as that there is a normal connection between the left and right control units.
Check the 4 main functional circuits as well as the status of the left control unit: pin 4 or 12 on the LS2 connector of the 24V supply
voltage (input circuit 30# supply voltage), pin 3 or 10 on the LS2 connector of the supply voltage of 24V (input circuit 15# supply
voltage), pin 21 on the LS2 connector (LIN communication line, it provides a connection of the combination of pri-borons with the
right control unit, the voltage in the line is 14-16V), as well as pins 1 or 17, 18, 19 on the LS2 connector (connecting the “mass”).
If there is a malfunction in the circuit of at least one of the four specified contacts, the left control unit will not be able to work
normally.
Check the 3 main functional circuits, as well as the status of the right control unit: Pin 3 on the JPC connector (LIN communication
line, it provides communication of the instrument cluster with the right control unit, the voltage in the line is 14-16V), as well as pin 6
on the JPC connector of the circuit 15# connecting the supply voltage from the ignition switch and pin 5 on the JPD connector (circuit
30# of the power supply voltage from the battery). If at least one of these three conductors malfunctions, the system as a whole will
not be able to work normally.
1. Sequence of operations in diagnosing faults of the display control unit
(1) Malfunction indication: The display screen displays the message “main control panel unknown”, the car’s
systems are generally not working, and the screen is flashing to warn of a malfunction.
Verification procedure:
Check pins 4 and 12 on the LS2 connector of the left control unit for a supply voltage (30#) pro-
Check pins 3 and 10 on the LS2 connector for the ignition switch supply voltage (circuit 15#) pin 21 (LIN line) on
the LS2 connector pins 1, 17, 18, and 19 on the LS2 connector (mass connection). If there is a violation on the
above contacts, check the status of the power lines (circuits 15#, 30#) on the switching unit, as well as check for a
break in the conductors of the LIN communication line and the reliability of the “mass” connection. If the main
function lines of the left control unit are working properly, but the signs of a malfunction persist, replace the left
control unit.
(2) Malfunction Symptom: The display screen displays the message “main control panel unknown”
Not recognized), but the car’s systems are generally operating normally.
Verification procedure:
Check pin 4 of the C1 connector of the instrument cluster (communication line, operating voltage in the range of
14-16V) if the specified
There is a breach of the circuit, check the cab LIN communication line circuit for any faults.
If no violations are found in the above chains, but there are signs of a malfunction, replace the combination of
applications.
