Using SerDia2010 to perform an Input Test A55 on a Deutz engine involves verifying the functionality of specific hardware components within the engine’s control unit, particularly testing an output which might have been damaged. Here’s a concise step-by-step guide on how to carry out this test effectively using SerDia2010:
Required Tools and Software:
- SerDia2010 diagnostic software (version 14.1.9.1 or later)
- Deutz Diagnostic Kit DECOM
Steps to Perform Input Test A55:
- Prepare the Engine Control Unit (ECU):
- Ensure that the engine’s dataset is updated and correctly stored on the ECU. This dataset is crucial as it contains the operational parameters for the engine.
- Disconnect Relevant Components:
- Electrically disconnect the main heater relay (K31) and the tank heating valve (Y31). This is essential to prevent any electrical feedback or interference during the testing of the control unit.
- Begin the Input Test A55:
- Open SerDia2010 and navigate to the service test cases section.
- Select and execute the Service Test Case for Input A55.
- A message will appear on the screen prompting confirmation to proceed. Confirm by clicking the green arrow or the equivalent prompt.
- Monitor the Test Progress:
- The software will then proceed with the test and display the state of the ECU.
- Pay attention to any messages or alerts that may indicate whether the test conditions are met. If a condition is not met, the process will abort, and an error message will explain the issue.
- Handling Errors and Messages:
- If you encounter a message stating that the BSW CB56B is not installed on the ECU, acknowledge that this specific service case can only be used with the BSW CV56B and close the service case as directed.
- Verify the Test Results:
- Since the test is not 100% reliable, it is recommended to perform an additional test to verify the results of Input Test A55.
- Competence Requirement:
- Note that performing this function requires Competence Class Level 3. Ensure that the operator has the appropriate level of training and access rights within SerDia2010.

Conclusion:
After completing the test, reconnect the disconnected components and make any necessary adjustments based on the test results. Regularly using SerDia2010 for diagnostic checks like the Input Test A55 helps maintain the operational reliability of Deutz engines, ensuring any potential issues are identified and remedied early.
