U283F Mercedes S 400 OBD Code

OBD/2 U283F error code description and symptoms.

Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) Intermittent Indicates the powertrain control module (PCM) detected an error in the vehicle speed information. Vehicle speed data is received from either the vehicle speed sensor (VSS), transfer case speed sensor (TCSS), anti-lock brake system (ABS) control module, generic electronic module (GEM), or central timer module (CTM). This DTC is set the same way as U283F. However, it is intended to flash the transmission control indicator lamp (TCIL) for first time VSS circuit error/malfunctions. Refer to possible causes for U283F

As the engine heats up and combustion becomes easier and more complete, the PCM will command the idling control valve to increase the amount of air entering the engine to suit the changing conditions. However, when the load on the engine changes, say, when some electrical consumers or other systems are either turned on or off, the PCM adapts the signal voltage to the idle control valve to ensure that the idling speed remains stable, and at the RPM specified by the manufacturer.

For mass or volume air flow circuit intermittent check engine light is perhaps the most troubling of lights because it could mean so many different things, from you didn't screw the gas cap on tightly enough to look out for pistons flying through the hood and into the stratosphere. The easiest way to find out what this light is telling you is to hook your vehicle up to a scan tool.

After you instruct it to perform the scan, it speaks mass or volume air flow circuit intermittent with your car's computers to find out exactly what's prompting the light to turn on.

Common Causes of Mercedes S 400 U283F OBD2 Code

A common cause of code U283F is the failure of Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit Intermittent, but there are several other possible causes as well, such as ;

EVAP system hose leaking
Air fuel ratio (A/F) Sensor 1 Bank 1 harness is open or shorted
Faulty Air Flow Meter
Intake Valve Timing Control Solenoid Valve circuit poor electrical connection

U283F is a kind of Network Trouble Code

U-code indicates that engine communication errors and shows lost communication with engine parts.U-Codes are fairly straight forward, given all of the articles and technical publications that have been written regarding these problematic codes. In most cases, it just comes down to identifying the module that isn't communicating with the other modules on the CAN bus line for whatever reason.
