Requirements for test:
-
● → Fuse No. 232 OK (in fuse box, socket position 32)
-
● Battery voltage not less than 12.7 V
-
● Alternator OK
Test sequence
-
‒ Connect test box V.A.G 1598/31 to wiring harness for engine control unit. Do not connect to the engine control unit itself.
.
-
‒ Switch ignition on.
Notes:
-
◆ The positive voltage supply for the engine control unit comes via contact 3 (terminal 15) and contact 62 (terminal 30).
-
◆ The earth connection for the engine control unit is via contacts 1 and 2.
-
‒ Connect multimeter (voltage measurement range) as follows:

1) The Motronic current supply relay -J271 supplies terminal 121 of the engine control unit with voltage for up to 15 minutes after switching off the ignition.
-
‒ Switch ignition on.

‒ Specification: approx. battery voltage
If the specification is not attained:
=> Current flow diagrams, Electrical fault finding and Fitting locations binder
-
‒ Test Motronic current supply relay -J271 => Page 28-20.
