Fault table, fault codes 00282...00530
Notes:
-
◆ Explanation of the fault types (e.g. "open circuit/short circuit to earth"):
=> Fault reader operating instructions
-
◆ If components are indicated as faulty:
First check the wiring and connectors to these components as well as the system earth connections according to current flow diagram. This is particularly relevant if faults are output as "occurring sporadically" (SP).
V.A.G 1551 print out, e.g.:
00523 030
Intake air temperature sender -G42
Signal too large
Sporadic fault
Explanation:
-
◆ 00523 = Fault code
-
◆ 030 = Fault type as number
-
◆ Intake air temperature sender -G42 = Faulty current path or incorrect location
-
◆ Short to earth = Fault type as text
-
◆ Sporadic faults = Faults that are not always present e.g. loose contact

|
|
|
|
Implausible signal
|
- Metal particles on engine speed sender -G28

|
Note on fault code 00513:
-
◆ Metal particles can cause additional signals to be generated.
-
◆ Signals may not be generated or be too small and therefore not recognised if the sender gap to sender wheel is too large or the sender wheel is damaged.
-
◆ The signals can be irregular if the sender wheel is loose.
