Checking voltage supply

If there is no voltage:
Checking wiring - Disconnect 3-pin harness connector from Mass Air Flow sensor (MAF).
- Connect multimeter US1119 (Fluke 83 or equivalent) between harness
connector terminals 2 (Ground) and 3 (B+), using adapter cables from
VW1594 connector test kit.
Specified value: 9.0-14.5 volts
- Switch ignition off.
- Check wiring using applicable wiring diagram.
- Switch ignition off.
- Connect VAG1598/22 test box to ECM harness connector page 01
-

.
- Check wiring for open circuits, between ECM/test box and 3-pin MAF
sensor harness connector.

If wiring is OK:

- Check ECT sensor resistance across terminal 1 (signal) and terminal 3
(ground).
- Check measured resistance value for appropriate temperature range
using graph below (N24-0157).

Range A: 0-50 C (32-122 F)

Range B: 50-100 C (122-212 F)

Examples:
If resistance is NOT OK:
At 30 C, ECT sensor resistance should be 1500-2000 At 80 C, ECT sensor resistance should be 275-375
- Replace Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor -G62-.
- 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
