Electrical testing
 
     
If the On Board Diagnostic (OBD) sequence 
does not provide any indication of the source of 
the malfunction, work through all of the 
electrical test steps. 
     If the OBD sequence identifies the source of the 
malfunction, only carry out the test steps 
recommended in the DTC table (specific 
testing). 
     
Test requirements  
     The "Automatic Test Sequence" was carried 
out and it was determined that the 
Transmission Control Module (TCM) and 
Engine Control Module (ECM) only contain 
DTCs relating to ABS. 
     
  -  Connect the VAG1551 Scan Tool (ST) and 
select the address word 00 with ignition 
switched on; 
     
  -  After completing electrical test, check and 
erase DTC memories of Transmission Control 
Module (TCM) and Engine Control Module 
(ECM).
