Notes on test table

  • ◆ The socket designations of the test box V.A.G 1598 are identical to the control unit (J104) contact designations in current flow diagram.

=> Current flow diagrams, Electrical fault finding and Fitting locations binder.

  • ◆ If the readings obtained deviate from the specifications, carry out fault rectification measure in the right-hand part of the table.

=> Current flow diagrams, Electrical fault finding and Fitting locations binder.

  • ◆ Continuity checks with adapter set V.A.G 1594 (bridging).
  • ◆ If the measured figures only deviate slightly from the specifications, clean sockets and plugs of the testers and adapter cables (with contact spray G 000 700 04 ) and repeat check. Before replacing components, check wiring and connections and also, particularly for specifications of less than 10 ω, repeat resistance check on the component.
