Trouble Code P2020 – Intake Manifold Variable Actuator Position Sensor/Switch/Switch Circuit Performance Range (Bank 2)

Car self-diagnosis

It should be noted right away that diagnostics on your own and at a service station are slightly different things. A specialized service has the necessary equipment that will allow you to fully identify all existing errors in the operation of your vehicle’s on-board computer.

VAZ 2114 car

Self-diagnosis is also a useful thing, but it is unlikely that you will be able to fully detect all errors if you check it yourself. It is also worth noting that the fault codes in both cases will be different, so we will consider both options separately. So, how is the dashboard diagnosed to identify faults without the participation of the on-board computer? This method is not known to all VAZ 2114 owners, but we will tell you about it.

1. Sit in the driver's seat and hold down the odometer button.
2. After this, turn the ignition key to the first position.
3. Then release the odometer button: you will see the arrows begin to move.
4. Press the button again and release it, so you will see the firmware version.
5. Finally, press and release the button a third time and if there is a fault, you will see an error code on the screen.

Unlike diagnostics using specialized equipment, in our case you will only be able to see two-digit fault codes, not four-digit ones. Let's look at the most common failures found in VAZ cars.

Laptop for vehicle diagnostics
It is necessary to take into account the fact that errors can add up, that is, if you have malfunctions with codes 1 and 4, then the number 5 will appear on the screen. It should also be noted that all malfunctions will be stored in memory until until they are reset manually. To do this, with the ignition on, disconnect the terminals from the battery and wait a few seconds, then connect them back. This way, errors will be reset manually and you won’t have to pay your hard-earned money to specialists.

Characteristic

The company constantly updates its lineup and improves functionality using modern technologies. Thanks to this, these are some of the best devices on the market, working perfectly with Russian cars.

A correctly configured Multitronics BC displays all information about the car faster than standard devices. In addition, it is located in a compressed form nearby.

Models

As mentioned above, the BC model range from this company is very wide and is regularly updated with new products.

Here are the main features of the most popular models to help you make a choice:

Possibilities

Almost all bookmakers from this company have a number of useful functions, including the following:

Advantages and disadvantages

Using such a device in a car has almost complete advantages for the driver. He gets full control over the condition of his vehicle and can always track the main parameters.

The disadvantages of these devices for their owners usually include an interface that is not always clear. Also, some users find it too minimal. This is probably due to technical shortcomings in processors and screens that do not allow more information to be displayed.

Error codes on the Multitronics on-board computer need to be known when computer diagnosing a car. This computer model is installed on both domestic and imported machines. This device has over 190 different functions. A digital monitor can diagnose several cars at once. If you use this device, you will constantly be aware of all vehicle malfunctions; it even analyzes and controls the quality of the fuel being poured. But what to do if the computer gives an error? What is causing the problem and what is broken? Later in the article we will describe in detail the errors generated by the on-board device.

On-board computer error codes

Multitronics are 5 characters that always start with the letter "G". Now let's describe the codes in order. If the screen displays error 0030, this means that the circuit from the oxygen sensor is broken.

Next 0031 - shorts the circuit between the same elements, until neutralization. 0032 - the same elements only short-circuit the body network, until neutralization. 0036 – also a break in the above system, after neutralization. 0037 – contact with the ground of the auto circuit after neutralization. 0038 – short circuit to the body after neutralization.

List of errors and notations

This is what the Multitronics on-board computer error codes look like. Now, when analyzing the problem, you will be aware of what it is.

Decoding codes

Next, we will look at the most common codes encountered during diagnostics of on-board computers of VAZ 2114 cars. Of course, on-board computers are also electronics, and they can cause certain failures, such is the specificity of their operation. However, often the fault codes displayed by the on-board computer are still true.

Description of the error

We will not consider all codes without exception, but especially for our readers we have selected errors that occur most often when diagnosing VAZs.

Reasons for error P2020

The most common causes of error P2020 are:

• Malfunction of the solenoid valve of the intake manifold geometry changing system
• Malfunction of the sensor or switch of the damper position of the system for changing the geometry of the intake manifold (bank 2)
• Clogged or damaged valve of the intake manifold geometry changing system (bank 2)
• Short circuit or broken electrical wires or damaged electrical connectors
• In rare cases, a faulty engine control module (ECM)

Connection and configuration features

The Multitronics on-board computer is connected to the diagnostic socket. If the connectors on the device and your car do not match, you will have to use adapters to connect. Installation is quite easy and usually there are no problems with it. If the model protocols are not suitable for your car, you can still connect to the speed sensor and injector. Even then, most functions will work.

First you will need to configure it in installation mode. You can select automatic mode. In this case, you will only need to indicate the type of gasoline and its consumption per 100 km in liters. The rest of the information about the car will be determined by the bookmaker himself. If the data it shows is incorrect, configure it manually by selecting the type of electrical unit.

Remember that the data is only read when the engine is running. Finally, you need to select a user mode, defining the functions that the device will use. Don't forget to indicate the engine cooling temperature, this is an important parameter.

Self-diagnosis at service stations and in garages

Diagnostics can be performed without the involvement of specialists or as a result of contacting a service station. In this case, the driver will have to be content with different results.

This is explained by the fact that car services use a whole range of equipment that allows you to determine the full list of error codes BK of a VAZ 2114 car. Practice shows that self-diagnosis allows you to achieve a certain result, but, unfortunately, it is possible to find all errors in exceptional cases.

How to decipher error codes during self-diagnosis of VAZ 2114?

When contacting a car service center and performing work on their own, the driver will see different error codes. For this reason, both options need to be considered.

Not every car owner operating a VAZ-2114 knows that it is possible to diagnose problems without using a BC. To use this technique you will need to do the following:

• take the driver's seat and hold down the odometer button;
• The ignition key must be set to the first position;
• You can now release the odometer button. The arrows on the instrument panel will begin to move;
• Pressing and releasing the odometer button again will display the firmware version;
• the next pressing and releasing the button will allow you to see codes that will indicate malfunctions in the operation of the vehicle systems.

Since the diagnostic process does not use special devices and equipment, codes are issued by the system in a 2-digit format. Let's look at the errors of the VAZ 2114, the explanation of which is presented in the table (below in the text).

The table also provides a description of problems and malfunctions.

For example, code 13 indicates that there is no signal from the oxygen sensor. 17 informs the driver about low voltage in the on-board network, and 24 - failure of the vehicle speed sensor. Codes No. 51 and 52 indicate problems with the permanent and random access memory device.

B.K. Multitronics X15 + installation report

I bought a com this afternoon. My hands itched all day and in the evening I ran to install it.

Having taken out the standard one, I noticed the chip

And I saw the feature of the new B.K.

Upon inspection, I was confused: there were 8 contacts on the standard chip, but on the connector of the new B.K. 6

Having connected them as there is, the computer showed only the remaining tank and charging. According to the instructions of B.K. I realized that the white wire should be connected to the K-line.

I ran a separate wire.

One end was plugged into the standard chip opposite the white one in the B.K. connector.

The stupid end in the diagnostic block

I don't need a temperature sensor, since there is one on the alarm. And secured it to the back.

To prevent the computer from rattling, I pasted a soft ribbon in the panel.

Thank you for your attention, I hope there will be comments.

Features of deciphering error codes using the odometer on a VAZ-2114 car

Thus, using digital odometer combinations, you can diagnose a number of faults in the VAZ 21 14 model, and without using the on-board computer.

When diagnosing with an odometer, there is a very important nuance. The point is that the odometer summarizes the codes when there are several faults. For example, if the voltage in the electrical network is too high, and there are also difficulties in the fuel level sensor circuit in the gas tank, the odometer will sum up codes 2 and 4. As a result, the driver will see a number of 6 on the screen.

An additional feature is that all codes will be written to memory. At the same time, they will be stored until the owner of the car resets them manually. To delete or reset recorded numbers from the memory of the VAZ 214, you must do the following:

• turn on the ignition;
• disconnect the terminal from the battery for a few seconds (with the ignition on);
• disconnect the terminals.

After completing the steps, the error codes will disappear. It is recommended to perform this procedure before contacting a car service for diagnostic purposes. Errors are reset to service stations for a fee. Therefore, with simple steps you can save your money.

Other combinations

The errors described above are not the only ones. And in practice you can find a large number of different codes:

These are the most basic error codes. More detailed information can be found in the file that usually comes with the diagnostic program. All identified defects must be repaired. After which the errors are reset and a recheck is performed.

Decoding BC codes on a VAZ-2114 car

Next, we will focus on the most common error codes, which are identified using the car’s on-board computer. You need to understand that electronics do not always work correctly.

But, as evidenced by numerous reviews from car owners, the self-diagnosis of the VAZ 2114 error codes correspond to reality, that is, to real problems in the system of vehicle components.

It should be noted that each error requires a serious approach with a view to subsequent elimination.

For example, codes 0301 - 0304 indicate that misfires were detected in the cylinders of the power unit. If the system displays error 0480, then we are talking about a possible failure of the cooling system fan. The listed and other problems require timely intervention, replacement or repair of the relevant components and assemblies. The table shows the most common error codes for VAZ-2114 models.

After studying the presented data, owners of the fourteenth model will be able to determine what caused the problems in the car system, as well as determine an action plan for troubleshooting.

Finally, it should be noted that the VAZ-2114 car will produce errors about malfunctions of individual devices much less often if the breakdowns are corrected in a timely manner. On the AvtoVAZ model in question, this is quite easy to do. You can repair a car without involving specialists, but it must be done in a timely manner. It is also recommended to purchase high-quality gasoline and spare parts. The car must be prepared for the change of season by filling in the necessary fluids and replacing the tires. It is advisable to park the vehicle in a garage, especially in winter.

What repairs can fix error P2020?

To resolve error P2020 you may need to:

• Clearing error codes from your computer's memory and test driving the vehicle to see if the P2020 code appears again
• Repair or replacement of electrical wires
• Repair or replacement of electrical connectors
• Replacing the solenoid valve for the intake manifold geometry change system
• Replacing the intake manifold geometry variable valve position sensor or switch (bank 2)
• Cleaning or replacing the intake manifold variable geometry damper (bank 2)
• Replacing hoses or vacuum lines
• In rare cases, replacing the engine control module (ECM)

Malfunctions and device replacement

As motorists say, if the Multitronics on-board computer fails, the only way to troubleshoot the problem is to replace it. Of course, the device can be repaired, but its restoration is carried out only in service centers for large sums. It would be more advisable to purchase a new model and connect it yourself.

If the on-board computer produces incorrect data, then there is a high probability that the contacts have come loose as a result of shaking and vibration. The fault can be fixed very simply - just check the wiring and tighten the contacts in the right places.

Reviews indicate that the on-board computer begins to display incorrect information on the display as a result of various failures. They are sent to a car service only in such cases. Specialists check the equipment and reflash it if necessary, updating the software.
