1998 AUDI A4 fuel pump

24-97
If the LED test light does not light up:

- Repeat test at other terminal of fuse 29.

If the LED test light still does not light up:
- Check wiring for open circuit between fuse 29 and terminal 30 at relay
position 6, using the applicable wiring diagram. Repair wiring as
necessary.

Specified value: max. 1.5

Note:
This step lets the fuel pump run without the engine running. The closed
throttle position switch must be closed during the test, or the selected fuel
injector will discharge fuel when it is actuated 5 times. - Connect VAG1527 LED voltage tester between Ground and one of the
two terminals of fuse 34.
- Initiate output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) and advance to test of
cylinder 1 fuel injector -N30- page 01
-51
.

Checking fuel pump relay voltage supply and
actuation

- Remove fuel pump relay -J17- from relay panel
position 6.

Checking fuel pump relay voltage supply

- Switch ignition on.

If voltage is NOT OK: - Connect multimeter US1119 (Fluke 83 or similar) and check for voltage
at relay socket:

Terminals 28 (B+) and 34
Terminals 32 (B+) and 34
Specified values: approx. Battery Positive Voltage (B+)
- Repair wiring according to applicable wiring diagram.

Checking fuel pump relay actuation

Note:
The LED light will light dimly before and after cranking the starter.
If the LED test light does not light up while cranking the starter, check
wiring as follows. - Connect VAG1527B LED voltage tester between relay socket terminals
28 (B+) and 29.
- Briefly crank starter.
LED test light must light up.

If resistance is NOT OK:

binder. - Connect VAG1598/22 test box to ECM harness connector page 01
-

. (Numbers marked on ECM connector match those on test box).
- Connect multimeter US1119 (Fluke 83 or equivalent) to check for open
circuit between relay socket terminal 29 and test box socket 4.

Specified value: max. 1 - Repair wiring using applicable wiring diagram.

If the wiring is OK, but the LED test light does not
light up:

- Replace Motronic ECM -J220- page 01
-68
.

- Carry out adaptation of throttle valve control
module to ECM page 24
-150
.

- Check readiness code page 01
-70
. If
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory has
been erased, or ECM was disconnected,
generate new readiness code page 01
-73
.
If the wiring is OK, and the signal to the fuel
pump relay is OK:

- Replace fuel pump relay -J17-.

- Reinstall fuses.

Checking injection amount

- Insert injector to be tested into measuring glass of VAG1602 fuel
analyzer.
- Connect one terminal of injector being tested to engine ground using
test lead from VAG1594.

Note:
This step lets the fuel pump run without the engine running. The closed
throttle position switch must be closed during the test, or the selected fuel
injector will discharge fuel when it is actuated 5 times. - Connect second terminal of injector to B+ using VAG1348/3A remote
control, VAG1348/3-2 adapter wire and an auxiliary wire.
- Conduct output DTM, actuating cylinder 1 injector -N30- page 01
-51

(fuel pump must be running).

Checking for leaks

- Conduct output DTM, actuating cylinder 1
injector -N30- page 01
-51
(fuel pump must be
running).

Note:
This step lets the fuel pump run without the
engine running. The closed throttle position
switch must be closed during the test, or the
selected fuel injector will discharge fuel when it is
actuated 5 times.

- Visually check injector for leaks.

With fuel pump running, only 1 to 2 drops can
drip in a minute (per injector).
If fuel loss is greater:

- Replace leaking injector
Installation of the injectors is in reverse order of
removal.

- Replace O-rings on all injectors and coat O-rings
lightly with clean engine oil.
