Power Supply (B+)
Terminal 30
Low Voltage The malfunction is set when the
battery/control module is disconnected
with ignition on or with a starting attempt
with ignition/control module
disconnected

- The malfunction is erased after the second engine
start if there is sufficient supply voltage. Therefore,
start car after battery/control module is
disconnected; shut off and start car again, then
check DTC memory again.

Malfunction cause found: Yes
No

- Erase DTC memory, test drive and after test drive,
check DTC memory again
MIL Status:
MIL lights up
immediately Poor ground connection between
battery and body

- Check ground cable for good contact on battery
terminal and check the threaded connection on the
body

Malfunction cause found: Yes
No

- Erase DTC memory, test drive and after test drive,
check DTC memory again

Break in the wiring connection
between battery and Engine Control
Module (ECM) -J192-

- Check voltage supply of engine control module

Notes:

The output diagnostic test mode can only be
carried out with the ignition switched on and the
engine NOT running.
The output diagnostic test mode is interrupted if
the engine is started or a rotary pulse is
recognized.
During the output diagnostic test mode, the
individual outputs are triggered until the
program is continued by pressing the button.

The outputs are checked by listening for the
sound of the component being actuated, of by
feeling for mechanical evidence of actuation
(clicking, vibration, etc.).
Without letting the engine run briefly, switch the
ignition off for approx. 20 sec before repeating
the output diagnostic test mode.

- Connect VAG 1551 scan tool and initiate until
"Select function" is indicated on the display

Note:
After function 04 is called up, the Engine Control
Module (ECM) carries out the following
operations:

Constant ignition timing point of 12 BTDC is
output in idle.

Digital idle speed control is blocked.
Evaporative emissions canister purge regulator
valve is closed.
A/C compressor is switched off.
EGR vacuum regulator solenoid valve is
closed
No coolant temperature correction-fixed value
of 80 C (176 F)

Learning values are relearned (idle and CO
content are adjusted automatically)

Note on display field 1:
Idle speed on vehicles without A/C and rear windshield heater switched on: 750-850 RPM.
Notes on display field 3:
For the testing at wide open throttle, stop engine, and switch ignition on.
Since in vehicles with manual transmission and automatic transmission different throttle bodies are installed, the start of
opening of the throttle body can be measured with ignition on and thus incorrect installation can be checked
Manual transmission: 45-53%
Automatic transmission: 27-35%
