What does the EPC light indicate in a Volkswagen Polo?
1 Answers
EPC stands for Electronic Power Control, which is the engine electronic stability system. When this indicator light stays on continuously, it signifies a fault in the engine or electronic systems. If the light remains illuminated or flashes after ignition or during driving, it indicates that the management system has detected an issue with the engine or electronic systems. Please contact a service center immediately. Below is relevant information about EPC: 1. Introduction to EPC: EPC, fully known as Electronic Power Control, is commonly referred to as the electronic throttle system. 2. Components of the EPC system: It mainly consists of the engine control unit, engine wiring harness, throttle body, accelerator pedal, brake switch, and clutch switch (for manual transmission vehicles). If any of these components malfunctions and the engine control unit detects the issue, it will directly trigger the EPC light to illuminate.
