Fault table, fault codes 00263...00524
Notes:
-
◆ The fault tables are listed according to the 5 digit fault code on the left.
-
◆ 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
Short to earth
Sporadically occurring 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

|
Engine speed sender -G28
|
|
|
|
|
No signal
|
- Sender wheel loose
|
- Engine misfiring
|
- Check sender wheel:
=> Repair group 13; Removing and installing cylinder block, sealing flange and flywheel/drive plate

- Replace engine control unit
.
|
Notes 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.
-
◆ Interference signals can cause additional signals to be recognised.
