^
Voltage tester V.A.G 1527 B
^
Connector test kit V.A.G 1594 A or V.A.G 1594 C
^
Engine oil level OK.
^
Engine oil temperature at least 80° C (radiator fan must start up once)
Note: For the functional check and servicing of the optical and acoustic oil pressure warning Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting and
Component Locations.
-
Remove oil pressure switch F1 and screw into oil pressure gauge.
-
Thread oil pressure gauge into oil filter bracket in place of oil pressure switch.
-
Connect brown wire of tester to Ground (GND).
-
Connect voltage tester V.A.G 1527 B using adapter cables from connector test kit V.A.G 1594 C to B+ and oil pressure switch.
-
LED must not light up.
-
If LED lights up, replace 1.4 bar Oil Pressure Switch F1.
If LED does not light up:
-
Start engine and increase engine speed.
-
LED must light up at 1.2 to 1.6 bar positive pressure, otherwise replace oil pressure switch.
-
Increase engine speed further.
-
At 2,000 RPM and an oil temperature of 80° C, oil pressure must be between 2.7 and 4.5 bar.
At higher engine speeds oil pressure must not exceed 7.0 bar
If specification is not obtained:
-
Check screen in intake line for soiling.
Note: Also, mechanical damage e.g. bearing damage can also be the cause of too low oil pressure.
If no malfunction can be found:
-
Replace oil pump.
If specification is exceeded:
-
Check oil channels.
-
If necessary, replace oil filter bracket with pressure relief valve.
