Volkswagen Self-Diagnostics
Corrado SLC
INTRODUCTION
If no faults were found while performing preliminary
inspection procedures, proceed with self-diagnostics. If no fault
codes or only pass codes are present after entering self-diagnostics,
proceed to H - TESTS W/O CODES article for diagnosis by symptom (i.e.,
ROUGH IDLE, NO START, etc.).
NOTE: Scan Tester (VAG 1551) must be used to make full use of the
self-diagnostic system capabilities.
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Hard Failures
Hard failures of monitored sensors and/or components, cause
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) to come on and remain on until
problem is repaired. If malfunction indicator CHECK ENGINE light comes
on and remains on during vehicle operation, cause of malfunction must
be determined.
If malfunctions are present for more than 5 seconds, they are
stored as Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and will be displayed as a
permanent malfunction even though the malfunction is not occurring at
the time DTCs are displayed. Malfunctions that affect oxygen sensor
control can only be read accurately after a test drive of at least 5
minutes.
Intermittent Failures
If a malfunction occurs for a maximum of 5 seconds, they are
stored and considered to be "sporadic" (intermittent failures). When
displayed on scan tester, malfunctions will have "SP" (sporadic) code.
RETRIEVING CODES
NOTE: See ENTERING SELF-DIAGNOSTICS for additional scan tester
operating instructions.
Corrado SLC
1) Turn ignition on. Connect Jumper Cable (357 971 514E) to
Data Link Connectors (DLC) located in center console. See Fig. 1.
Black end of jumper cable attaches to Black data link connector; White
end of cable attaches to White connector.
2) Leave jumper cable attached for 5 seconds, until on-board
diagnostic CHECK ENGINE light begins to blink. Remove jumper cable.
Allow on-board diagnostic code retrieval procedure to run until Code
