Special tools and workshop equipment required
t  Vehicle diagnosis tester
t  Pickup clamp -V.A.G 1526B/2-
   
t  Hand-held multimeter -V.A.G 1526D-
  W00-10706
t  Test instrument adapter/DSO (5-pin) -VAS 5565-
Test prerequisites
l  Fuses must be OK.
l  The battery voltage must be at least 12 V, if necessary connect a battery charger.
l  All electrical consumers, e.g. lights and rear window heating, must be switched off.
l  Visual check of cables OK.
