Check 171 Fault Code

BMW Fault Code: 171

171 - Function, secondary-air valve: jammed

System: Digital Motor Electronics

BMW System: DME

Type: Drive

Plausibility – Throttle Valve

Fault Code Table : MS41

The next generation Siemens MS ECUs introduced many of the OBD2 features. This includes Catalytic Converter monitoring and Long / Short term Fueling and Ignition Adaptation. The MS41 was used on the M52 series of engines, MS42 on the M52TU series, and MS43 on the M43 4 Cylinders.

The OBD2 P codes fault protocol was not activated in European markets on this group, as currently it was not required by law.

Aux Air Valve Jammed

Fault Code Table : DME MSS52

The MSS52 is an M Power ECU designed to run the E39 M5, the Z8 Roadster, and also the Wiesmann Roadsters. The MSS54 is used on the E46 M3 and on some Z3Ms. The system uses an Electronic Throttle to accurately control Air intake instead of the more common Cable throttles used on earlier vehicles
