When you send us your driver, please, do not delete the errors that appeared during the testing as they are saved in the driver’s memory and can be very helpful in precise diagnostics of the source of the failure and can facilitate to start the car. Diagnostic testing of the driver disconnected from the car will not inform us e.g. about a mechanical pump or electrovalve defect, that’s why we ask you not to delete the descriptions of errors after testing.
