1998 AUDI A4 light

24-100

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:
Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting & Component Locations
binder. - Connect VAG1598/22 test box to ECM harness connector page 01
-
67
. (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 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.

Checking EVAP canister purge regulator
valve voltage supply

Test conditions

Fuse for EVAP canister purge regulator
valve OK

- Disconnect harness connector from EVAP
canister purge regulator valve.

If LED test light does not light:
If wiring is OK: - Connect VAG1527B LED voltage tester between connector terminal 1
(B+) and engine Ground.
- Operate starter motor.
Specified value: LED must light up
- Check wiring for open circuit between connector terminal 1 and fuse,
according to wiring diagram; repair if necessary.

Specified value: 1.0 max.- Check fuel pump relay page 24

Checking signal to EVAP canister purge
regulator valve

If LED test light does not blink, or stays on:
If LED test light does not blink: - Connect VAG1527B LED voltage tester between connector terminals 1
(B+) and 2.
- Start output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) for EVAP canister purge
regulator valve -N80- page 01
-51
.
LED must blink
- Connect VAG1598/22 test box to ECM harness connector page 01
-
67
.

If LED test light stays on: - Check wiring between connector terminal 2 and Motronic ECM terminal
15 for open circuit or short circuit to B+.
- Check wiring between connector terminal 2 and Motronic ECM terminal
15 for short circuit to Ground.

Voltage supply, checking

If LED tester does not light: - Disconnect harness connector for LDP -V144-.
- Connect VAG1527B LED voltage tester between connector terminal 3
(B+) and engine Ground.
- Start engine and run engine at idle.
LED must light up.
- Check fuse for LDP -V144-.
