Checking current consumption of the fuel pump for delivery rateG6 (CFWA)
Checking current consumption of the fuel pump for delivery rate -G6- (CFWA)
Special tools and workshop equipment required
t  Vehicle diagnosis tester
t  Hand-held multimeter -V.A.G 1526D- or pickup clamp -V.A.G 1526B/2-
t  Test instrument adapter/DSO (5-pin) -VAS 5565-
t  Vehicle diagnosis tester
  Note
t  The battery voltage and the diesel fuel temperature have a great influence on the current draw of the fuel pump. For this reason, measures should be taken to ensure that battery voltage is at least 12.5 V during the check.
t  Depending on the season, make sure that the vehicle is filled with winter diesel if necessary.
Test prerequisites
l  Battery voltage at least 12.5 V
l  Diesel fuel temperature above 10 °C
»Carry out the following work sequence«
–  Fold rear bench seat up → General body repairs, interior; Rep. gr.72.
   
–  Lift cover of fuel delivery unit.
  N20-10606
–  First check that connector -arrow- is fitted securely by pulling connector without pressing catch. The connector can cause a fault if it has not been fitted correctly.
  N20-10623
–  Pull off connector -1-.
  N20-10673
–  Connect test instrument/DSO adapter (5-pin) -VAS 5565- to connector and fuel delivery unit.
–  Connect pick-up clamp -A- to red cable - with lettering „pick-up clamp“ - of test instrument/DSO adapter (5-pin) -VAS 5565-.
  Note
Pickup clamp of hand-held multimeter -V.A.G 1715- can also be connected to red terminal with lettering „pickup clamp“ of test instrument adapter/DSO (5-pin) -VAS 5565-.
–  Switch ignition on.
–  Connect vehicle diagnosis tester and carry out guided function „Fuel pump activation (checking fuel pump)“.
  Note
The fuel pump is now activated for 30 seconds.
–  Read current draw on hand-held multimeter -V.A.G 1526D-: Specification: min. 8.0 amperes, max. 14.0 amperes.
If the measured value is not within specifications:
–  Remove fuel delivery unit → Chapter.
–  Check that the electrical lines between flange and fuel pump are connected and have continuity.
If no open circuit can be found
–  Renew fuel delivery unit → Chapter
