Special tools, testers and auxiliary items

  • ◆ Fault reader V.A.G 1551 with cable V.A.G 1551/3
  • ◆ Adapter set V.A.G 1594
  • ◆ Diode test lamp V.A.G 1527

Test conditions

  • ● Throttle valve potentiometer (G69) OK.

Work sequence

  • ‒ Connect fault reader V.A.G 1551 and select engine electronics control unit (address word 01); carry out selection with ignition switched on.
 
→ Indicated on display:
Rapid data transmission     HELP
Select function XX
  • ‒ Operate fault reader taking into account the information on the display:
  • ‒ Input 03 for "Final control diagnosis" function.
 
→ Indicated on display:
Rapid data transmission     Q
03 Final control diagnosis

Note:

If something different is indicated on the display:

=> Fault reader operating instructions

Activate Cyl. 1 injector (N30):

  • ‒ Confirm input with Q button.
 
→ Indicated on display:
Final control diagnosis     ⇒
Injector cylinder 1 -N30
  • ‒ If something different is displayed, press ⇒ button repeatedly until "Select function XX" appears.
  • ‒ Input 03 again for function "Final control diagnosis" and confirm with Q button.
  • ‒ Open throttle valve fully and close again.
         The Cyl. 1 injector must click

Note:

All injectors click extremely quietly!

To activate injectors, Cyls. 2...4 in each case:

  • ‒ Open throttle valve fully again and close.

Skipping individual tests:

  • ‒ Press ⇒button.

If one or more injectors do not click:

  • ‒ Continue final control diagnosis to the end.
  • ‒ Switch off ignition.
  • ‒ Checking injector actuation (resistance and current supply) => Page 24-49 , checking injectors.

Activate idling stabilization valve (N71):

  • ‒ Press ⇒button.
 
→ Indicated on display:
Final control diagnosis     ⇒
Idling speed stabilization valve -N71
  • The idling stabilization valve must click, until switching to the next final control by pressing the ⇒button.

If the idling stabilization valve does not click:

  • ‒ Switch off ignition.
  • ‒ Pull connector off valve.
  • ‒ Connect diode test lamp V.A.G 1527 with aux. cables from V.A.G 1594 to contacts 1 and 2 of detached connector.
  • ‒ Switch on ignition.
  • ‒ Repeat final control diagnosis -idling speed stabilization valve (N71)-.
         LED must flash

LED flashes:

  • ‒ Renew idling stabilization valve.

LED does not flash:

  • ‒ Switch off ignition.
  • ‒ Reconnect connector to valve.
  • ‒ Carry out electrical check => Page 01-40 , test step 26, renew Motronic control unit (J220) if necessary.

Activate solenoid valve 1 for activated charcoal filter (N80):

  • ‒ Press ⇒button.
 
→ Indicated on display:
Final control diagnosis     ⇒
Solenoid valve 1 for activated charcoal filter N80
  • The activated charcoal filter solenoid valve 1 (on air cleaner housing) must click until the next final control element is selected by pressing the ⇒ button.
  • ‒ Pull hose off solenoid valve (from activated charcoal filter).
  • ‒ Connect auxiliary hose.
  • ‒ During final control diagnosis blow into auxiliary hose (in direction of throttle housing).
         Valve must open and close

If the solenoid valve does not click:

 
V24-1054
  • ‒ → Pull 2 pin connector off valve and connect diode test lamp V.A.G 1527 with aux. cables from V.A.G 1594 to disconnected connector.
         The LED must flash

LED flashes:

  • ‒ Renew solenoid valve.

LED does not flash:

  • ‒ Switch off ignition.
  • ‒ Reconnect connector to valve.
  • ‒ Carry out electrical check
    => Page 01-40 , test step 17.
  • ‒ Renew Motronic control unit (J220) if necessary.

Activate Lambda probe heating relay (J278):

  • ‒ Press ⇒ button.
 
→ Indicated on display:
Final control diagnosis     ⇒
Lambda probe heating relay -J278
  • The Lambda probe heating relay (on additional relay plate) must click until the next control element is activated by pressing the ⇒ button.

If the relay does not click:

  • ‒ Switch off ignition.
  • ‒ Carry out electrical check => Page 01-40 , test step 5 or locate short circuit according to current flow diagram and rectify:

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

If an open circuit cannot be located:

  • ‒ Renew Lambda probe heating relay (J278) or Motronic control unit (J220) as necessary.
  • ‒ Press ⇒ button.
 
→ Indicated on display (ignore display):
Final control diagnosis     ⇒
Exhaust gas recirculation valve -N18
  • ‒ Press ⇒ button.
 
→ Indicated on display (ignore display):
Final control diagnosis     ⇒
2-stage intake manifold changeover valve -N156
  • ‒ Press ⇒ button.

Note:

After completion of the final control diagnosis input 06 for "End output" function and confirm with Q.

  • ‒ Switch off ignition.
