OCTAVIA Self-Diagnosis Self-diagnosis Note: Self-diagnosis monitors only a part of the fuel injection and ignition system. Features of self-diagnosis The Simos 3PB control unit is equipped with a fault memory. The fault memory is designed as a permanent memory. If faults occur at the monitored sensors or com- ponents, these are stored in the fault memory with an indication of the fault type.
