Readout specified values for injection pump

Display group 01 during idling (engine warm, coolant temperature not below +85°C)

Read measured value block 1

◂ Indicated on display

900 rpm

5.6 mg/stroke

1.480 V

87.3 °C

Coolant temperature
▪ 85...100 °C ok
▪ < 85 °C: => Run engine until warm

Voltage from modulating piston movement sender -G149
▪ 1.250...1.700 V okay
▪ < 1.250 V: Injection pump too rich => replace
▪ > 1.700 V: Engine loaded => switch consumers off, injection pump too lean => renew injection pump

Injection quantity
▪ 2.0...6.0 mg/stroke OK
▪ < 2.0 mg/stroke: Injection pump too rich => replace
▪ > 6.0 mg/stroke: Engine loaded => switch consumers off, injection pump too lean => renew injection pump

Engine speed
▪ 860...940 rpm OK

Display group 01 with attempted start (if engine does not start) 1)

Read measured value block 1

◂ Indicated on display

230 rpm

37.4 mg/stroke

2.780 V

14.3 °C

Coolant temperature

Voltage from modulating piston movement sender -G149 (quantity adjuster returns modulating piston position to control unit)
▪ Periodic voltage increases: okay (pump is injecting)
▪ < 1.000 V: Metering control closed =>observe display zone 2, only if specified injection quantity okay =>replace injection pump

Specified injection quantity (control unit activating metering control in injection pump)
▪ Periodic injection quantity increases: okay (pump is being activated)
▪ 0.0 mg/stroke System fault => interrogate fault memory, Page 01-6

Engine speed

1)    If the electrical system voltage falls below 10.8 V during the attempted start, the V.A.G 1551 fault reader will abort the diagnosis.

Display group 19 with ignition on

Read measured value block 19

◂ Indicated on display

0.780 V

4.150 V

No display

No display

Voltage at sensor for modulating piston movement with metering control at maximum stop
▪ 3.800...4.400 V okay
▪ If outside tolerance: Check contact resistance in wiring
▪ injection pump quantity adjuster maladjusted => replace injection pump

Voltage at sensor for modulating piston movement with metering control at minimum stop
▪ 0.600...0.900 V okay
▪ If outside tolerance: Check contact resistance in wiring => Page 23-92
▪ injection pump quantity adjuster maladjusted => replace injection pump

Display group 04 during idling (engine warm, coolant temperature not below +85°C)

Read measured value block 4

◂ Indicated on display

900 rpm

0.9 °BTDC

0.9 °BTDC

3 %

Duty cycle (activation) of injection start valve
▪ no specification

Current injection start
▪ 2° after TDC...4° before TDC okay.
▪ Later 2°after TDC: Injection timing control stuck
▪ Commencement of injection valve defective
▪ Injection pump excessively retarded
▪ => Check injection timing control range, Page 23-59

Injection start specified by control unit
▪ 2° after TDC...4° before TDC OK

Engine speed
▪ 860...940 rpm OK

Display group 04 at full throttle (test drive in 3rd or 4th gear, coolant temperature not below +85 °C)

Read measured value block 4

16.1 °BTDC

84 %

Duty cycle (activation) of injection start valve
▪ No specification

Current injection start
▪ If as specified in display group 2 (tolerance ±2°) okay.
▪ If outside tolerance: Injection pump delivery start incorrect
▪ => check commencement of injection,
▪ Page 23-59

Injection start specified by control unit
▪ 14...18 °BTDC okay.

Engine speed
▪ 3800...4200 rpm OK
