-  Switch ignition on. The diode test lamp should 
light up. 
     
-  If diode test lamp does not light up, test for open 
circuits in wiring between contact 1 and fuse for 
injectors. If necessary, rectify open circuit.

-  If diode test lamp lights up, test activation of 
injectors.

-  Remove plug connector from the injector which 
is to be tested. 
    
Specified value: the diode test lamp should start flashing.  
Note:  
Diode test lamps with a low current draw continue to glow faintly between -  Connect diode test lamp VAG 1527 between the battery positive 
terminal (+) and contact 2 on the connector. 
-  Operate starter for a few seconds (the engine can be allowed to start).

Fuel Pump (FP) relay -J17 and relay 
activation, checking
 
     
Note:  
    
The fuel pump relay is located in the central electrics in the left-hand 
footwell, relay position 4. 
A - Checking Fuel Pump (FP) relay -J17  
-  Remove storage bin in front left-hand footwell.
    
 Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting & Component Locations   
The fuel pump relay should pick up (can be felt and heard) and the diode 
test lamp should light up.  -  Remove fuel pump fuse from fuse holder and connect diode test lamp 
VAG1527 between Ground and one of the two contacts for the fuel 
pump fuse. -  Operate starter briefly. 
-  If fuel pump relay does not pick up, check activation   Page 24

-  If fuel pump relay picks up but diode test lamp 
does not light up, repeat test on other terminal. 
    
 Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting & Component Locations    -  If diode test lamp still does not light up, test for open circuit in wiring 
between fuel pump fuse and terminal 23 in relay position 4. If 
necessary, rectify open circuit. -  If voltage supply, activation and wiring for fuel pump relay are OK, 
install new fuel pump relay.

Specification: approx. battery voltage in each case  
 Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting & Component Locations    -  Connect hand-held multimeter VAG1526 between Ground (GND) and 
relay panel contact 19 (B+; terminal 15 from ignition switch). 
Disconnect, then re-connect between Ground (GND) and relay panel 
contact 17 (permanent B+; terminal 30 from battery). 
-  If values are not as specified, rectify open circuit.
