3. Air flow sensor plate must be horizontal and

centered in venturi.
Adjusting
An excessively high air flow sensor plate setting

can be corrected by driving down the stop spring
guide pin with a drift and light hammer.

CAUTIONS WHEN REPAIRING ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEMS
Modern engines requiring more from ignition systems and the objective of low (or no)
maintenance have led to the application of electronic ignition systems in standard production
some time ago. Normally the ignition output of an electronic system will be higher than that
of a conventional system, whereby even greater ignition output is feasible. Consequently
electronic ignition systems are in an output range, where touching current carrying parts or
terminals on both primary and secondar~y sides could be dangerous.
In conjunction with this matter we must point out to you that there must be conformance
with pertinent legislation of your country when repairing and testing ignition systems.
Always turn off the ignition or disconnect the battery when working on the ignition system.
Such jobs include the following.
Connecting engine testing equipment (timing light, dwell angle/speed tester.

ignition oscilloscope, etc.)
- Replacement of ignition system parts (spark plugs, ignition coils, distributor,

ignition cables, etc.)
If testing the ignition system or making engine adjustments requires turning on the ignition,
the mentioned dangerous voltage will be in the entire system.
Thus the danger is not only present at the individual parts of the ignition system (for example,
distributor, ignition coil, control unit, ignition cables, etc.), but even on the wire harness
(as for example, tachometer connection, diagnosis plug), plug connections and any testing
equipment connected.

Precautions
The greater demands placed on ignition systems by modern engines and the desire for freedom from
routine maintenance led some time ago to the introduction of electronic ignition systems on produc-
tion cars. Normally speaking, the ignition power from electronic systems (of almost all makes) is
greater than that of conventional systems, and further power increases can be expected in the future.
This places electronic ignition systems in a power range where touching live parts or terminals (either
the primary or secondary circuits) could lead to a fatal accident.
In this connection you are reminded that German VDE regulations, and in particular VDE 0104 of July
1967 (or the equivalent national regulations) must be complied with whenever work on or inspection
of the ignition system takes place. The ignition must always be switched off (ignition or power
source) before work on the ignition system is started. Such work includes:
l Connecting engine testers, for example

timing light, dwell angle/speed tester, oscilloscope etc.
l Replacement of ignition system components, for example

spark plugs, coils, distributors, ignition leads etc.
The above-mentioned dangerous voltages will be present in the entire system should it be necessary
to switch on the ignition for ignition system testing or engine adjustments.
In other words, there is not only danger from the individual components of the ignition system (for ex-
ample distributor, coil, control unit, wiring or associated components) but also at wiring harnesses,
plug connections and testers.

Important vehicle information
l Always turn off the ignition or disconnect the battery for resistance tests (if this is not done, the
measuring instrument may be damaged beyond repair).
l Always disconnect both speed sensor plugs for compression tests. (If this is not done,danger-
ously high voltages and insulation damage at the coil, high-tension distributor and Ignition leads
could result.)
l The specified coil (refer to order number) must not be replaced by a different coil.
l Never connect an interference suppression capacitor to coil terminals 1 and 15,
l Never connect coil terminal 1 to ground for the burglar alarm. This could damage the coil and the
control unit beyond repair.
l Never connect battery + or a test lamp to coil terminal 1, or the control unit will be damaged bey-
ond repair.
l Never disconnect the ignition lead from coil terminal 4 to high-tension distributor terminal 4 while
the engine is running.
l There must be no electrical flashover from coil terminal 4 to coil terminals 1 and 15, or the control
unit could be damaged beyond repair.
. To avoid destruction of the control unit, the secondary circuit of the ignition system must be
suppressed with at least 4 kQ; the original distributor rotor with 1 kS2 suppressor resistor must be
installed (do not use a 5 KQ -distributor rotor even if radio and telephone interference suppres-
sion are necessary).
l Disconnect EZWLH control units and ignition output stage plugs only after turning off the ignition.
l Flashovers or insulation breakdowns in the high-tension distributor cap area (poor isulation) could
destroy the control unit.
l Never disconnect the battery when the engine is running.
l Incorrect battery polarity could damage the ignition output stage, coil and LH-EZK control unit
beyond repair.
l External engine starting at more than 16 V or with a rapid battery charger is forbidden.
l Always comply with accident prevention regulations when working on the fuel system.

Control units
The LH and EZK control units were given diagnostic capability at the end of the 1968 model year
(see 1986 Model Information, Fuel and Ignition System _ Diagnosis).
Starting with the 1986 model year, self-diagnosis with a fault memory is integrated into the two fuel
injection and ignition control units. This makes it possible to identify and store certain malfunctions of
the fuel injection and ignition system and of the knock regulating system.
To make sure that faults identified and stored in this way are not erased when the ignition is turned
off, a permanent + signal is supplied to both control units.
Important:
If the control unit plugs or the battery are disconnected, the fault memory will be erased
Diagnostic tester:
To call up the contents of the fault memory on 1988 model cars a new diagnostic taster (special tool
number 9268) was developed. It is connected to an existing plug connection on the control unit
mounting plate.
For diagnostic work on cars from the 1989 model year on, a 19.pin plug-in connection under the
booster cover is connected to the new 9286 system tester or the 9268 flashing code tester (using an
intermediate adapter lead).
Note:
The test point concerned is supplemented by the equivalent flashing fault code on the 9266 tester.
Example:
Test point 2 = idle speed contact (l-12)
2nd digit display:
“1” = fault present, or
“2” = no fault present.
From tester module version 2.0 on, actual engine data can be read out from the EZWcontrol unit with
system tester 9288.

Prinled In Germany - XXV, 1990

928 GT
This LH/EZK diagnosis/troubleshooting plan is based on the contents of the fault memory.
Paths not included in the self-diagnosis can be diagnosed by conventional means (test points 12 - 22
on LH, 12 16 on EZK)
Preconditions for troubleshooting are that the person performing the tests
l is familiar with the location of compopnents and the functions of and technical inter-relationships
between the systems to be tested (model information)
l can read and evaluate Porsche wiring diagrams
l knows the functions of electrical circuits and relays
l can use testing equipment such as oscilloscopes, voltmeters, ohmmeters and ammeters and
knows how to evaluate their readings.
Important:
A fault indication on the display (fault list in the case of the flashing code) does not always indicate
that the component in question is defective. It can also suggest a fault in the corresponding control
unit or the connecting leads (paths) between the component and the control unit.
No troubleshooting involving disconnecting plugs etc. is to be performed with the engine running
before the fault memory has been read out, or this in turn may be stored as a fault in the memory.
Note on the 9288 system tester
If the tester display shows
Fault fQ&taa& this may mean:
l Fault is no longer present at the time of testing (loose contact)

Remedy: visual inspection of the path, erasure of the fault memory and a repeat test drive.
l The conditions in which the fault is being tested for do not correspond to those under which the
fault originally occurred.
Remedy: conform with conditions displayed on the tester.
Sianal not olausible:
The signal from the monitored component is not within the tolerance range of the specified control-
unit value

928 S4
In contrast to LH cars up to and including the 1986 model year, on which the injection valves, oxy-
gen sensor and rotary actuator were activated from fuel pump relay XX, the power supply to the injec-
tor valves, idle speed control, fuel tank venting valve, encoding element and resonance flap switching
valve from the 1967 model year on were supplied in addition from LH-Jetronic relay XXV, which pre-
viously had a burn-off function only. This change was necessary to permft self-diagnosis from the
1988 model year on.
From the 1990 model year on, the connections to the central electrics and the installed direction of
the control unit plugs have been altered.
The relay designation from the 1990 model year on is shown in brackets and the wiring entry into the
plug as a broken line.

Check-Engine Lamp
(Malfunction Indicator Light M.1.L)
As from model year ‘91, Californian legislation prescribes a warning lamp which lights up if a part rele-
vant to the exhaust gas fails.
As a function check of the warning lamp, k lights up when the ignition is switched on and goes out
once the engine is running when this is started without depressing the accelerator.
The warning lamp has a flashing code to indicate a defective fault path.
To trigger off the flashing code, fully depress the accelerator pedal with the engine off and the lgni-
tion on for 3 seconds until the Malfunction Indicator Lamp flashes. Then remove foot from accelerator.
If no fault is recorded, i.e. no warning came from the indicator light, there appears the flashing code

on 4 cylinders.
An ignition circuit monitoring relay at the
LH/EZK control unit controls this protective
device. 2 light-emitting diodes on the relay
housing show which injection circuit has been
shut down. For repairs, refer to 926 Repair Pro-
