If the diode test lamp does not flash:

- Connect test box VAG 1598/31 to wiring
harness for engine control unit. Do not connect
to the engine control unit itself. Page 24

.

- Test for open circuit or short to B+ in wiring between engine control
module and contact 2 on harness connector for fuel injector being
tested.

- Lift fuel rail off intake manifold together with fuel
injectors and support the fuel rail.

Note:

After lifting off the fuel rail, check to make sure
that the injectors are properly secured to the
fuel rail.
It is possible that some of the fuel injectors will
become detached from the fuel rail and remain
in the intake manifold when the fuel rail is
removed. If this happens, install the fuel
injectors back onto the fuel rail Page 24

.

WARNING!
Make sure test box is inside of passenger compartment. - Connect test box VAG 1598/31 to wiring harness for engine control
unit. Do not connect to the engine control module itself Page 24

Checking for leaks

- Bridge sockets 1 and 65 on the test box using
test leads from VAG1594 A connector test kit.
(This creates an Ground (GND) connection to
one side of the fuel pump relay coil.)

Note:
Once the socket are bridged the fuel pump runs
continuously, even if the engine is not running.
This is because the fuel pump relay receives its
positive voltage supply via the central electrics.
The negative voltage supply for the fuel pump
relay comes via the cable bridge on the test box.

WARNING!

Fire hazard. DO NOT smoke or work near
heaters or have anything in the area that can
ignite fuel!

- Check injectors fuel for leaks (visual check).
When fuel pump is running, only 1 or 2 drops
should escape per minute from each injector.

- If fuel loss is greater, switch off fuel pump
(remove bridge) and replace faulty injector

WARNING!
Make sure test box is inside of passenger compartment.
The fuel pump should run. - Connect one fuel injector terminal to engine Ground (GND) using test
cable and crocodile clamp from VAG1594 connector test kit.
- Connect second fuel injector terminal to B+ using remote control
VAG1348/3 A, adapter cable VAG1348/3-2 and auxiliary cable.
- Bridge sockets 1 and 65 on the test box using test leads from
VAG1594 A connector test kit. (This creates an Ground (GND)
connection to one side of the fuel pump relay coil.)

- Repeat test for fuel injectors from second bank
of cylinders.

- If measured values for all fuel injectors are
outside tolerance range (specification), check
fuel pressure Page 24
-33
.

Note:
When checking the injection quantity, also check
the spray pattern. The spray pattern should be
the same for all the injectors.
Installation of the fuel rail together with injectors
is performed in the reverse sequence. The
following points should be noted when installing:

Replace O-rings at all opened connections.
(When replacing the front O-ring, make sure
not to remove the plastic cap from the
injector head. The O-ring must be pulled off
over the plastic cap.)
Moisten O-rings with clean engine oil.

Checking activation

Note:
Diode test lamps with a low current draw do not go out completely but
continue to glow faintly until the starter is operated.
If the diode test lamp does not light up, test the wiring as follows: - Connect diode test lamp VAG1527 between B+ and contact 16 on
relay panel (Ground connection via engine control module).
- Operate starter briefly.
- The diode test lamp should light up and remain lit when the starter is
operated.
- If activation, wiring and power supply for fuel pump relay are OK but
fuel pump relay still does not pick up, replace fuel pump relay.
- Connect VAG1598/31 test box to wiring harness for engine control
module. Do not connect to the engine control module itself Page 24

- Connect hand-held multimeter between contact
16 on relay panel and socket 65 on the test box,
then test wiring for open circuits.

- Rectify open circuit if necessary.

- If there is no open circuit and the diode test lamp
still does not light up:

- Replace Engine Control Module (ECM) Page
