Fuel pump relay and connections,
checking


The fuel pump relay is located at relay position 6 on the relay panel on the
left side under the instrument panel.
Checking function of fuel pump relay -J17-
- Remove storage shelf in left-front footwell.

- Remove fuses 28, 29 and 34 from fuse panel.
- Connect VAG1527B LED voltage tester between Ground and one of
the two terminals for fuse 28.
- Briefly crank starter.

LED test light must light up.
Fuel pump relay must be actuated (can be felt and heard)

If the fuel pump does not respond:

- Check fuel pump relay actuation page 24
-
99
.
If the LED test light does not light up:

- Repeat test at other terminal of fuse 28.

If the LED light still does not light up:
- Check wiring for open or short circuits between fuse 28 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 VAG1527B LED voltage tester between Ground and one of
the two terminals for fuse 29.
