Check conditions
l  The battery voltage must be at least 11.5 V.
l  Speedometer must be OK., checking speedometer: → Electrical system; Rep. Gr.90
l  No faults must be stored in fault memory → Vehicle diagnosis, testing and information system VAS 5051, interrogating and erasing fault memory.
Test sequence
  Note!
To check the speed signal the vehicle must be driven. To do this a second person is necessary.
  Caution
Secure fault reader to rear seat and operate from this position.
