| Testing databus (CAN bus) |
| Two data BUS circuits with a different priority are integrated in the electrical system of the vehicle: |
| t
| Convenience CAN data bus |
| The control units are connected via two twisted data BUS cables (CAN_High and CAN_Low) and exchange information (messages). Both the engine control unit and the other control units detect missing information on the data BUS as faults. |
| Special tools and workshop equipment required |
| t
| Hand multimeter (e.g. -V.A.G 1526 A-) |
| t
| Adapter cable set (e.g. -V.A.G 1594 A-) |
| t
| Test box -V.A.G 1598/31- |
| l
| A data BUS fault was detected by the engine control unit. |

| Coding of all control units o.k. |
| –
| Unlock connector at engine control unit and unplug. |
| –
| Connect test box -V.A.G 1598/31- to the engine control unit → Chapter. The control unit wiring loom is not connected. |
| –
| Test the central terminating resistor in the engine control unit. |
| –
| Perform resistance measurement between the test box sockets 20 + 21. |
| If the resistance is not within the specified range: |
| If the resistance is within the nominal value range: |
