Fuel film strip problem
schuppi:
Hello
If there is a short cut in the heating element, ZFE will shut down this circuit.
Disconnect the sensor, cycle ignition and don your measurement again.
If there is again no voltage on the output, ZFE is down
Ghiribizzo:
Thanks schuppi.
I was afraid of that. Same result with existing strip or new strip.
Both strips are ok re. resistance.
But no fault showing in GS911 for any other part or feature to do with ZFE.
Summary - with ignition on: no voltage at either of the wires to the strip 'heater' [emoji53]

Still no working fuel strip. BMW dealers have no knowledge or perhaps are unwilling to share any diagnosis of ZFE fault.
Unusually - if autoscan is used...it finds no fault anywhere.
But if I try to calibrate the fuel strip - the problem is shown. [emoji848]

Still with the fuel strip issue - how useful is a GS911?
So we have a bike - nothing in the fuel display. Fuel strip is in good order. Wiring is all good.
- Autoscan finds no fault.
- Look at ZFE. It also finds no fault.
- what is the purpose of output tests to do with the fuel strip heating element?
If the brake light is selected you can have it going on and off. Is this useful? What does the heating element do in this list. If all is good and it is selected what happens? If all is not good - nothing happens.
I'm somewhat annoyed that the software tool does not seem to diagnose faults and has lots of apparently useless features.
The only part of the software that identifies a fault is when a calibration of the fuel strip is attempted.
Somebody convince me this is not an ineffective tool please...
On this bike, the only aspect that has been useful is the ability to change service date.
I'm left very unimpressed with GS911 today.
