CAUTIONS & WARNINGS
ELECTRICAL SHOCK
WARNING: Contact with live components of ignition system while
engine is running could lead to a fatal electric shock.
RADIATOR FAN
Keep hands away from radiator fan. Fan is controlled by a
thermostatic switch which may come on or run for up to 15 minutes even
after engine is turned off.
RADIATOR CAP
CAUTION: Always disconnect the fan motor when working near the
radiator fan. The fan is temperature controlled and could

start at any time even when the ignition key is in the OFF
position. DO NOT loosen or remove radiator cap when cooling
system is hot.
REPLACING BLOWN FUSES
Before replacing a blown fuse, remove ignition key, turn off
all lights and accessories to avoid damaging the electrical system. Be
sure to use fuse with the correct indicated amperage rating. The use
of an incorrect amperage rating fuse may result in a dangerous
electrical system overload.
BATTERY WARNING
WARNING: When battery is disconnected, vehicles equipped with
computers may lose memory data. When battery power is
restored, driveability problems may exist on some vehicles.
These vehicles may require a relearn procedure. See COMPUTER
RELEARN PROCEDURES article in GENERAL INFORMATION section.
BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATOR
Indicator will cause a squealing or scraping noise, warning
that brake pads need replacement.
HALOGEN BULBS
Halogen bulbs contain pressurized gas which may explode if
overheated. DO NOT touch glass portion of bulb with bare hands. Eye
protection should be worn when handling or working around halogen
bulbs.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (AIR BAG)
NOTE: See the AIR BAGS article in the ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Section.
Modifications or improper maintenance, including incorrect
removal and installation of the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS),
can adversely affect system performance. DO NOT cover, obstruct or
change the steering wheel horn pad in any way, as such action could
cause improper function of the system. Use only plain water when
cleaning the horn pad. Solvents or cleaners could adversely affect the
air bag cover and cause improper deployment of the system.
WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental air bag deployment, read and
carefully follow all warnings and service precautions. See
appropriate AIR BAGS article in ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT.
CAUTION: Disconnect negative battery cable before servicing any air
bag system, steering column or passenger side dash
component. After any repair, turn ignition key to the ON

position from passenger's side of vehicle in case of
accidental air bag inflation
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
The anti-lock brake system contains electronic equipment that
can be susceptible to interference caused by improperly installed or
high output radio transmitting equipment. Since this interference
could cause the possible loss of the anti-lock braking capability,
such equipment should be installed by qualified professionals.
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
To prevent catalytic converter overheating, DO NOT allow
engine to idle for more than 20 minutes.

circuits to ECU. The ECU engine ground is near ignition distributor.
Remove ECU connector. Check resistance to ground on terminal No. 35.
Resistance should be zero ohms. If resistance is not zero ohms, repair
open or short in wiring.
POWER CIRCUITS
Turn ignition off. Disconnect ECU connector. Using a
voltmeter, check terminals No. 12, 14, 19 and 34 for battery voltage.
If battery voltage is not present. Check fuses No. 15, 18 and 24. If
fuses are okay, check for open in wiring between ECU and fuse box. See
L - WIRING DIAGRAMS for terminal identification and wire colors.
ENGINE SENSORS & SWITCHES
AIRFLOW SENSOR (FOX & JETTA GLI)
1) Start engine to pressurized fuel system. Turn engine off
and remove intake boot from top of airflow sensor. Disconnect coil
secondary wire from coil and jumper to ground.
2) Check sensor play by slowly moving sensor plate through
travel range with a magnet. See Fig. 1. Resistance should be felt.
Move plate back to the rest position. There should be no resistance.
If binding is felt, loosen sensor plate hold-down bolt and adjust
plate to center of venturi.
3) If resistance is uneven, remove airflow sensor from
housing to clean and lubricate lever assembly. If resistance is caused
by control plunger, remove and clean control plunger assembly. If
binding continues, replace fuel distributor.
4) Check position of airflow sensor plate. Airflow sensor
plate edge must be within .075" (1.9 mm) below the narrowest section
of the venturi. If not, bend sensor spring until correct specification
is obtained. Ensure a small gap exists between sensor lever and
control plunger.Fig. 1: Identifying Airflow Sensor Components (Fox & Jetta GLi)
