-  Disconnect 4-pin harness connector from power 
output stage. 
     
-  Connect VAG 1527B LED voltage tester 
between Battery Positive Voltage (B+) and, in 
turn, each terminal of power output stage 4-pin 
connector. 
     
-  Crank starter for a few seconds in each case.
     
   LED must blink all 4 times
