Continuation of test
(when IAT sensor indicates approx. ambient
temperature)

- Without disconnecting harness connector,
remove IAT sensor -G42-.

- Monitor intake air temperature value in display
field 4.

- Spray sensor with commercially available
chilling spray and check temperature value in
display field 4.

Temperature value must decrease
If NOT:

- Replace intake air temperature sensor -G42-.

- Check readiness code Page 01
-59
. If
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory has
been erased, or ECM was disconnected,
generate new readiness code Page 01

Fuel injectors, checking for leakage


WARNING!

The fuel system is under pressure! Before
loosening hoses or opening the test
connection, cover the connection with a rag.
Only then, open carefully to slowly release
pressure.

Required special tools and test equipment

VW 1594 connector test kit
VAG 1630 digital potentiometer
VAG 1602 fuel analyzer

Checking

- Disconnect harness connector for Camshaft
Position (CMP) sensor -G40-.

- Disconnect vacuum hose from fuel pressure
regulator.

- Remove fuel rail together with fuel injectors.

Note:
When reinstalling the fuel injectors be careful not to damage the O-rings. - Disconnect harness connector for Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT)
sensor -G62-.
-
Adjust VAG 1630 digital potentiometer to 15 k setting.- Connect to ECT sensor harness connector terminals 1 and 3, using
adapter cables from VW 1594 connector test kit.
- With the aid of a helper, briefly crank starter.
Fuel injectors must spray according to the firing order.
- Switch ignition off, and check for leaks at fuel injectors.
Fuel injectors may not drip more than 2 drops per minute.
