Self-diagnosis mode VAZ 2110

We will tell and show the self-diagnosis mode of the instrument panel of the VAZ 2110 2112 2111, we will decipher the error codes of the VDO panel.
In order to start the self-diagnosis mode of the instrument panel, you need to turn the key in the ignition and simultaneously hold down the daily mileage reset button. When the mode is turned on, all the arrows must reach “the end” and return back, in this way you can check the functionality of all sensors, instruments, light bulbs, and the arrows themselves. Then we press the mileage reset button once again, the firmware version will be written in the information window, in our case it is 1.1, we press our button again and see the error codes. To reset errors, press the button and hold for a while: The number “0” that appears on the screen indicates that all errors have been reset. We repeat the entire procedure again from the very beginning to make sure that we have no errors.

Decoding VDO error codes:

0 means there are no errors at all. 1 microprocessor is faulty. 4 means that the supply voltage of the on-board network is higher than 16 Volts; 8 error, on the contrary, shows a low voltage, less than 8 volts. The following errors may appear: 6, 10, 12, 14 - they mean several malfunctions at the same time, i.e. are summed up, 6 (this is 2+4), etc.

To be honest, these readings are of little use; the simplest diagnostic device will show much more and in all details. The additional on-board computer also displays all the main errors; we take readings from all systems.

Video of the self-diagnosis mode of the instrument panel VAZ 2110 2112 2111:

Hello dear visitors of the site vaz2110-remont.ru. The topic of this article will be diagnostics of the tidy on the VAZ 2110, 2111, 2112.

In order to start the self-diagnosis mode of instrument clusters, you must turn on the ignition while holding down the button that resets the daily mileage.

How to understand that the mode has started? Everything is very simple, the oil pressure lights, the battery icon, the fuel warning light and the Chek light will start to light up. In this case, all arrows begin to move from the initial position to the maximum, and this process is repeated. This way you can check the operation of all light bulbs, instruments, and arrows.

Go ahead and press the button to reset the daily mileage. In this case, the arrows return to their initial position, and the firmware version will appear on the on-board computer screen. In our case, this is version 1.1.

When we press the button to reset the daily mileage, an error code will appear.

To reset this error, you need to press and hold the button that resets the daily mileage. Until the error resets to 0.

To check that the errors have been reset, we repeat the procedure: enter the mode - diagnostics of the VAZ 2110 device (while turning on the ignition, press and hold the button that resets the mileage); Press the mileage reset button three times and look at the on-board screen. It should show 0.

We decided on this. But now we need to find out what kind of error we identified during the self-diagnosis of the instrument clusters. A table is presented to you for this purpose.

If the number is different, for example, like ours, this means that there are several errors and the computer shows their sum: 6 (2+4), 10 (2+8), 12 (4+8), 14 (2+4+ 8).

You can watch the whole process in the video below:

We have sorted out the errors during self-diagnosis of the instrument clusters of the VAZ 2110, but here you can see how to reset the Check error (when the engine light comes on) yourself.

I'm getting error 79.0, what is this?? And tell me how to fix it

When I press a button and turn the key, nothing happens, what could it be?

vdo 2110 old model with one window the problem is this:

All the lights are on, but none of the instruments work and there are no numbers, but when the dimensions are turned on, the window lights up, what could be the problem?

VAZ2112 speedometer lies at 10-20 km

When you release the reset button, the sasur eights disappear, what does that mean?

Great, I have a question for you. VAZ 2111 when I turn on the dimensions, they light up, i.e. everything is fine, I switch to low beam, the lights go out, the panel goes out, what’s the problem? 

Hello, I have a 2000 2110, the tachometer constantly keeps 2000 rpm, they changed the idle speed sensor - it is useless. I think the computer, how can I reset the settings on 2000 machines? - Thank you 

I can’t press it like that and there’s no reset, can you tell me what the problem is? 

hi, I tried to do it like in the video on a VAZ 2112 2002, what do you think is the reason?

Greetings. I did a diagnostic on the instrument panel, showed firmware 1.1 and error number 8 popped up. And even before that, error 14 popped up. What kind of errors are these and how to fix them so that I don’t have them 

Hello, my VAZ 2110 also has error 14 like in your video (High signal level of the coolant temperature sensor) what does this mean and what needs to be changed

Thank you for the informative and necessary video.. For those interested, see ERROR CODES https://www.drive2.ru/c/1046771/

Question! if possible please help. VAZ 2112. My camshaft sensor is not connected to the brains of the car. So, the sensor itself is connected and the car drives and works normally (as for me), but the check engine constantly lights up. I bought the connection socket itself. But here’s the problem, there is only one wire for connection - brown, it is not clear what to connect two more wires to, since I don’t see any more broken wires, and two more wires come out of the connection socket. It is impossible to find a normal auto electrician in my city. How to connect the sensor correctly, how to determine what to connect to what, and where to look for torn wires? 

How to diagnose the error?

It is important to know

There are two options for diagnosing a VAZ car - testing using the instrument panel and using a computer. The second option is considered more accurate, but its implementation will require a special program and a cable for connecting to the diagnostic connector.

Checking using a computer is done like this:

1. The diagnostic wire is connected to the laptop. Its second end must be connected to the OBD2 connector in the Lada car. The location of this block differs depending on the car model; this nuance must be clarified in the service manual.
2. A diagnostic program is launched on the computer, which allows you to decipher error codes. To start the test, press the corresponding button.
3. The diagnostic process begins. Depending on the utility, the program can separately check the operation of the engine, transmission or electronics.
4. After the test is completed, combinations of faults will appear on the computer screen that need to be deciphered. Depending on the program, a description of the error may also be displayed immediately.

Diagnostics using the dashboard is performed as follows:

1. The car owner sits in the driver's seat and presses the daily mileage reset button on the odometer.
2. The key is inserted into the lock and scrolled to the “ACC” position.
3. The daily mileage reset button is released. The arrows on the speedometer, tachometer, and sensors will begin to quickly move from the minimum position to the maximum.
4. The odometer key is pressed and released. An inscription with the software version will be displayed on the instrument cluster screen.
5. After the third press of the odometer key, combinations of faults will appear on the screen.

Video: diagnosing a VAZ using the dashboard

The CarFance channel in its video showed in detail the process of testing a Lada car using a control combination.

Diagnostics using a scanner

The method involves connecting an external computer with the program installed. This opens up more opportunities for car diagnostics. In this case, error codes for VAZ 2110 and VAZ 2112 consist of 5 characters.

Letter part:

• P – failure or malfunction of the power plant, transmission;
• B – body systems are damaged;
• C – a problem has been detected in the vehicle’s chassis;
• U – violation of pairing of different modules.

First digit:

• 0 – general value;
• 1/2 – manufacturer code;
• 3 – reserve.

Second digit:

• 1-2 – violation in the air-fuel mixture supply devices;
• 3 – malfunction of the ignition units;
• 4 – atmospheric emissions control device;
• 5 – malfunction of the engine speed or engine speed meters;
• 6 – failures in electronics;
• 7-8 – malfunction of the gearbox module;
• 9-0 – reserve unit.

The last two digits give the serial number of the breakdown and its location.

How to reset the error?

Good to know

You can delete the error code from the memory of the VAZ control unit by disconnecting the terminal from the battery.

The reset procedure is performed as follows:

1. The vehicle's ignition system is activated, but the power unit does not start.
2. The engine compartment of the vehicle opens. Using a wrench, loosen the screw that secures the terminal clamp on the negative output of the battery.
3. After about one minute the contact is reconnected.
4. The engine compartment of the car is closed, the ignition system in the car is turned off.
5. The car engine is starting. If the “Check” indicator remains lit on the dashboard, it should disappear on its own after a few kilometers.

Prevention of breakdowns of electrical appliances

To prevent breakdowns of electrical circuits, you must follow a number of simple rules.

1. Periodically check the contact connectors for oxidation or overheating. Rust disrupts the passage of impulses, which can be read by instruments as damage to the unit.
2. Once a year, treat contacts with special oils. Lubricants prevent moisture from entering metals, which prolongs their service life.
3. Replace dry wires in a timely manner. Cracked insulation can cause a short circuit.

Errors on the VAZ 2110 (2112) panel provide the user with complete information about the condition of the vehicle’s components and assemblies. If you know the decryptions, the driver can independently fix the breakdown of the vehicle electronics.

Designation of icons on the dashboard of Lada 2112

What standard trip computers exist?

Option 1. In the instrument cluster.

Option 2. Installed instead of a small plug next to the ACS unit

These were installed on “luxury” dozens.
There are models AMK 211000 without diagnostics, and AMK 211001, AMK 211002 with diagnostics. You can find out which one you have by looking at the numbers on the back cover. To do this, naturally, the MK must be removed. If on the back there are the inscriptions AMK-211001 or AMK 211002, and in clock mode, when you press the “clock” button, the inscriptions Err appear and then two more - great. You have a full-fledged bookmaker. If these are the inscriptions:

Unfortunately, this is a BC that either lacks diagnostic capabilities or has “cut-off” firmware.” Craftsmen resolder and reflash such models, but in my opinion they are not worth it.

It is very easy to remove such a MK. We disconnect the terminal of the “negative” wire from the battery terminal. We pry it off with a screwdriver...

remove the MK from its seat....

....disconnect the wire block from it.

Designations on the MK screen

The trip computer (MC), shown in the figure, is installed in a variant version instead of a clock. MK has 15 functions, divided into 3 groups. The group is selected using buttons 1, 2 and 3.

In each group, functions are divided into basic and additional. The main functions are navigated through the ring using buttons 1, 2 and 3. Additional functions are navigated through button 5. When the ignition is turned off, the computer is always in the “Current Time” mode. When the battery is removed, the clock progress and all accumulated parameters are retained for at least 1 month.

ADJUSTING THE COMPUTER FUNCTION Correcting the clock rate Press button 4 in the “Current time” mode. At the sixth signal of the exact time, press button 1, this resets the seconds and rounds the clock readings.

Setting the current time (calendar) Press button 4 in the “Current time” (“calendar”) mode. Use buttons 5, 6 to set the desired hour (day). Press button 4. Use buttons 5, 6 to set the desired value for minutes (month). Press button 4 to complete the time (calendar) setting.

Setting an alarm

Press button 4 in Alarm mode. Use buttons 5, 6 to set the desired hour value. Press button 4. Use buttons 5, 6 to set the desired minute value. Press button 4 to complete the alarm setting. In the “Current time” mode, the alarm symbol will light up (the alarm is on).

Turning off the alarm

Press button 4 in Alarm mode. Press button 1 to turn off the alarm. “—.—” will appear in the digital digits, and in the “Current time” mode the alarm symbol will not light up (the alarm is turned off).

Adjusting the brightness of the indicator backlight

When the side lights are on, the illumination level is adjusted using the instrument scale illumination regulator. When the side lights are turned off, the backlight level is adjusted by software: - press button 4 in the “Traveling time with stops” mode. All single segments (pictograms) will be displayed on the indicator, which is a sign of the backlight level adjustment mode, and the digital digits will display a number corresponding to the backlight level as a percentage of the maximum value; — use buttons 5, 6 to set the required level of backlight brightness; — press button 4 to end the brightness adjustment mode.

Calibrating the fuel level sensor

To carry out the correction, it is necessary to drain all gasoline from the tank. Press and hold button 4 for more than 2 s in the “Fuel level” mode. A flashing number “0” will appear on the indicator. Press and hold button 3 for 1 s until a confirmation beep appears. After this, a flashing number “3” will appear on the indicator. Fill the gas tank with 3 liters of gasoline using a measuring container, wait the time necessary for the fuel level sensor to calm down, press and hold button 3 for 1 s until a confirmation sound appears. Continue this procedure until the maximum value is 39 l, after which the computer automatically exits the mode.

Description of the buttons on the panel

Throttle valve

The on-board computer issues two unpleasant errors - 0122 and 0123 when there is a problem with the throttle sensor. Moreover, 0122 will be displayed if the signal level of this sensor is low, and 0123 – if it is high.

Both one and the other, naturally, are not good. Especially if the on-board computer readings are accompanied by increased idle speeds, jerks at low speeds and dips. In this case, replacing the sensor does not always help.

Throttle position sensor

If codes 0122, 0123 are issued, be sure to check the signal and power wires for breaks, and also pay attention to whether there is any leakage through the injector rings. Remember: the main enemies of DPZD are engine washing and also the manufacturing plant, since there are a lot of defects here.

The following material is devoted to common malfunctions of the throttle position sensor:
