t  Hand multimeter -V.A.G 1526C-

t  Auxiliary measuring set -V.A.G 1594C- t  Spacer, 13 mm Procedure

–  Clamp spacer -1-, a = 13 mm, between accelerator pedal -2- and stop -3-, and hold accelerator pedal in this position.

–  Open throttle valve fully by pulling on accelerator cable sleeve and lock in this position with retainer -arrow-. –  Release accelerator pedal –  Pull 2-pin connector off kick-down switch -F8- in front of engine compartment (on the bulkhead).

–  Connect hand multimeter -V.A.G 1526C- to kick-down switch -F8- using auxiliary cables from adapter set -V.A.G 1594C-. –  Check resistance at switch. Specification: ∞∼Ω –  Slowly move accelerator pedal in direction of full throttle. Shortly after the kick-down pressure point the resistance must drop to 0 Ω. At this point the accelerator pedal must be just off the stop.
