CAUTION! 
     
To operate the engine at starter speed 
without actually starting it (for example, in 
order to test compression), unplug the 
connectors from the output stages for the 
ignition coils and also the connectors on the 
injectors. 
     During some of the tests the control module 
may identify and record malfunctions. The 
DTC memory should therefore be checked 
and (if necessary) erased after completing 
the tests and any repair work that may be 
required. After erasing DTC memory 
generate new readiness code   Page 01

 . 
     
Always switch off the ignition before 
cleaning the engine. 
     Always switch off the ignition before 
connecting or disconnecting the battery, 
otherwise the engine control module may be 
damaged. 
     Be sure of proper radio code (for vehicles 
equipped with coded anti-theft radio) 
     
Be sure the battery negative (-) cable is

Wiring and component check with 
VAG1598/31 test box
 
     
Notes:  
     
The VAG1598/31 test box is designed so it can 
be simultaneously connected to the control 
module wiring harness and to the control 
module itself. 
     This has the advantage of enabling the engine 
management system to remain fully operational 
even with the test box connected (for example, 
when testing signals while the engine is 
running). 
     The instructions for performing the individual 
tests indicate whether or not the engine control 
module itself also needs to be connected to the 
test box. 
     Use the hand multimeter Fluke 83 (or 
equivalent) or the multimeter VAG1715 and the 
diode test lamp VAG1527 for the checks. 
     To connect the testers to VAG1598/31 test box, 
always use the adapter leads from VAG1594 A 
connector test kit.
