AUDI A4 1995 B5 / 1.G AFC Engine Exhaust Gas Recirculation Checking Workshop Manual

24-67


Exhaust Gas Recirculation
(EGR) vacuum regulator
solenoid valve, checking

Note:
For a functional check of the EGR system
Repair Group 01, Read measuring value block,
display group 001.
- Disconnect EGR vacuum regulator solenoid
valve harness connector.

If the specified value is not obtained: -
Switch multimeter (Fluke 83 or equivalent) to measure resistance ( )
and connect between valve terminals.
Specified value: 25 to 35 - Replace EGR vacuum regulator solenoid valve.

Checking voltage supply

- Disconnect EGR vacuum regulator solenoid
valve harness connector.

If voltage tester does not light up: - Connect VAG 1527B voltage tester between connector terminal 1 (B+)
and engine Ground (GND) using jumper wires from connector test kit
VW 1594.
- Use scan tool "Output Diagnostic Test Mode" function 03 to trigger fuel
pump relay -J17- page 01
-145
.
Voltage tester must light up
- Check fuse for EGR vacuum regulator solenoid valve.

- Check wiring for continuity between EGR vacuum regulator solenoid
valve connector terminal 1 and fuse, using wiring diagram.

Specified value: max. 1.0 ohm ( )- Check fuel pump relay and triggering page 24

Checking triggering

If voltage tester does not flash, or lights up constantly:
If voltage tester lights up constantly:
If voltage tester does not flash: - Connect VAG 1527B voltage tester between EGR vacuum regulator
solenoid valve connector terminals 1 (B+) and 2 using jumper wires
from connector test kit VW 1594.
- Use scan tool "Output Diagnostic Test Mode" function 03 to trigger

.
- Check wiring for short to Ground (GND) between valve connector
terminal 2 and test box socket E1.
- Check wiring for continuity and short to B+ between valve connector
terminal 2 and test box socket E1.

Specified value: max. 1.0 ohm ( )

If wiring is OK: - If necessary, eliminate short or open circuit in wiring.
