Engine speed signal, checking


Note:
The engine speed signal is output at terminal 37
of the Engine Control Module (ECM). The signal
is used, among other things, for RPM display in
the instrument cluster.

- Connect VAG1598/31 test box at wiring harness
to Engine Control Module (ECM), do not connect
ECM Page 24
-19
.

- Check following wire connection for open circuit
and short circuit to Ground (GND) and B+:

Vehicle speed signal, checking


Note:

The vehicle speed signal is generated by the
speedometer Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) -
G22- (at transmission) and is processed in the
instrument cluster.
The processed signal enters at terminal 54 of
the ECM and is used for idle stabilization and
tip-in shock reduction during shifting.

Test requirement:
Function and display of speedometer OK.

A/C compressor shut-off, checking


Note:

The A/C compressor signal communicates to
the ECM that the compressor will be switched
on in 140 ms.
The Engine Control Module (ECM) can switch
off the A/C compressor via the same wire
connection.
Engine Control Module (ECM) switches off A/C
compressor:

-- during hard acceleration (Wide Open
Throttle 1st gear)

-- in emergency mode (emergency
operation)

-- after initiating basic setting (function 04)

Test requirements:
A/C system OK
No DTCs in DTC memory of Engine Control
