Engine speed (RPM) signal, checking


Notes:
The RPM signal is routed from the ECM to
various electronic systems (e.g. automatic
transmission, ABS, etc.). The RPM signal is
monitored by the different electronic systems.
Carry out the following check only if the
tachometer (in the instrument cluster) is
inoperative, or if the A/C compressor is not
running.

- Connect VAG 1367 engine-tester to tachometer
using wiring diagram.

- Connect VAG 1367 engine-tester signal wire
(green terminal) to instrument cluster RPM
terminal and A/C control module RPM terminal
(connector remains connected).

- Start engine and let idle.

RPM must be displayed again
If the specified value is obtained, the malfunction
is in instrument cluster or on A/C control module.
If the RPM is not displayed on VAG 1367 engine-

measurement range and connect between
signal wire (trip computer 20-pin connector) and
Ground (GND), using wiring diagram.

- Start engine and let idle.

Specified value: approx. 0.3 to 0.6 volts,
corresponding to engine speed (RPM)
