Using DIS & INPA Service/Test Features?

[duracellttu]

So here is the TIS that I’m trying to perform for the Throttle Bodies, 13 54 010. There is a call out to use DIS Tester to activate the TB actuator.



After playing around in DIS for a very long time I found a few screens that show the throttle actuator under the “Function Selection” section from the bottom screens. However when I select the unit on the far right column I don’t get an option to “activate” that module.

What am I doing wrong??



The “Control Module Functions” also don’t show anything on the DME section. Playing around with other sections and controls in this area I was able to “activate” windshield wipers as a test. However there was the screen below shows up for DME relate items.

This led me to believe all functions were activated from the previous “Function Selection” screen, but no luck.

Any advice?

It should be somewhere within the DME menu, not in that drop down you're looking at.

Follow this guide and then once you're in the DME menu, look for the throttle body stuff: https://forums.m3cutters.co.uk/threa...ng-dis.106289/

Edit for clarity:

Follow that guide up until the following step:

9. You should now be in the DME menu with 4 options: [1] Fault symptoms, [2] Function test, [3] Service functions, [4] Expert mode.

Then click through each of those four menus and look for the throttle body thing, can't remember exactly where it is off the top of my head.

Thanks for the tips! Th3 m3cutters link along with the YouTube video I found below helped me get it figured out. I’ll post the process with screen shots later.

I used the links below to figure out how to get to the "Diagnosis Selection" screen. Where I went wrong is on the "Diagnosis Function and component selection" screen. You can choose the desired categories in the first two columns to filter down before clicking on "Test Schedule" or "Test Plan" (depending on your version). If you click on the specific component in the far right column you wont be able to click on "Test Plan". This is what confused me. I didnt realize you only need to select items in either just the left or left and center columns.

Click on “Actuator”, the click the green arrow on the right.



You will see a screen communicating with the DME. After the information populates, click the green arrow in the right.




After that I selected 3 Vehicle Discussion "Service Functions". You have to click on the actual text until it’s highlighted like in the picture below, then click on the green arrow on the right to continue.




The next screen is all in German, but 8 "Set el. throttle valve controller full-load stop" is what you want. Similar to the last screen you have to click on the text to highlight what you want to activate, then click the green arrow.



Here it is translated.



You will be prompted to put the key into position 2 before continuing.



Translated.



Upon activation, you will hear it engage and it will be held at WOT until you choose to stop.
