Special tools and workshop equipment required

  • ◆ V.A.G 1526 A
  • ◆ V.A.G 1594 A
  • ◆ V.A.G 1598/31
 
A97-0119

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:
