  N21-10269
–  Unscrew the securing screws of the pressure capsule -arrows- and remove the pressure capsule -A-.
Installing
  Caution
Then use new nuts and bolts from the spare part kit.
–  If necessary, remove the bottom fixing nut of the control rod of the new pressure capsule.
–  Screw the counter nut in the direction of the pressure capsule onto the control rod to the end by hand.
–  Guide the control rod through the adjusting lever of the turbocharger, position the pressure capsule -A- and pre-tighten the fixing screws.
  N21-10268
–  Tighten securing bolts -arrows- to 8 Nm.
  Note
Make sure that the guide piece slides easily across the control rod.

–  Connect the plug connector -2- to the position sender for charge pressure positioner -G581- and attach the protective mat.
–  Connect vehicle diagnostic tester.
Select operating mode:
–  Touch the pushbutton for the „vehicle self-diagnosis“ on the screen.
Select vehicle system:
–  Press button „01 - Engine electronics“ on display.
The control unit identification and engine control unit coding are indicated on display.

–  Touch the pushbutton „011 - Measured values“ on the screen.
–  Enter the value block „120“ using the numeric keypad and confirm the value by pressing the „Q“ button.
–  Connect the manual vacuum pump -VAS 6213- to the pressure capsule.
–  Build up a vacuum, set the voltage to 0.760 V and observe the bottom value of the value block in the process.
  Caution
During the subsequent procedure for setting the control rod, the vacuum pressure as well as the voltage of 0.760 V must be kept constant.
  N21-10174
–  Slowly unscrew the counter nut -B- from the control rod (screw from the rod). The adjustment lever is positioned at the lower »stop«.
–  Hold the fixing nut -B- tight and turn the fixing nut -A- on the control rod against the adjustment lever in the process. Tighten slightly using the ring spanner -T10423-.
–  Allow the vacuum to escape from the pressure capsule.
–  Check the bottom value of the value block; the value should be between 3.30 and 3.90 V when depressurised.
–  Position the socket -T10422-, secure the counter nut -B- with the ring spanner -T10423- and tighten the fixing nut -A-.
  Caution
Build up a vacuum of 0.75 ± 0,05 bar in the pressure capsule in order to check whether adjustment lever is seated at the »stop«. The voltage of 0.760 V must be at hand.
  N21-10269
Voltage value in good condition
–  Press the locking mechanism on the control rod by hand and turn by 90° -in the direction of the arrow-.
