hello, thiseler!
It is likely that the generator regulator of my fan is defective, as the light is flickering terribly. However, I unfortunately don't have time to get it fixed right now (I hope for possible warranty/fan and 90,000 km...it should be able to handle more! icon_evil.gif )
but I also have another problem icon_cry.gif. when I take my foot off the gas in city traffic and let the car coast, it jerks violently! icon_eek.gif could this be related to the regulator, or are there other possible causes? icon_question.gif
Greetings, Markus

Hi,
would not spend a long time troubleshooting but replace the controller. If it's mounted on the outside of the Lima, it's a matter of minutes and so cheap that it's not worth asking for a favor.
I've experienced this jerky motion before. However, in normal operation, nothing should jerk at all. With zero injection volume, there's simply nothing to control. This already points to a disturbed electronics, in my opinion.

When the fuel injection amount is zero, there's nothing to regulate. That already speaks for a faulty electronic device, in my opinion.
hm, that sounds logical...
aber ich glaube, es ist nicht so einfach. In einem GF-Forum sagten einige Leute, dass das gesamte Lima-Teil ausgetauscht werden muss, und das wäre auch teurer... icon_evil.gif
I should probably get checked out...
Thank you anyway!
