This functionality is dedicated to resolving a problem with the “ELV Component Fault” of all FBS4 vehicles equipped with an ESL (ELV), which is preventing the vehicle from being started and driven.

The ESL (ELV) module defects due to dirt, overuse or voltage spikes and sticks in its last position -“locked” or “unlocked” and the vehicle cannot be started.

The function will remove the error in the ESL (ELV) and unlock it, and allow the car to start.

N.B. To avoid this problem happening again in the future, some of the defective components in the ESL (ELV) should be repaired/exchanged.

The function is performed with a direct connection to the ESL (ELV) diagnostic line. It can be executed direct in the vehicle or on bench.
