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

Vehicle speed signal, checking
Notes:
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.
Troubleshooting:

WARNING!
To reduce the risk of accident during road
tests, always observe safety precautions

Consumption signal for board
computer, checking
Note:
The consumption signal is transferred from the
Engine Control Module (ECM) to the instrument
cluster via CAN-bus. Check data exchange
between Engine Control Module (ECM) and
other CAN capable control modules Page 24

Wire for fuel level signal, checking
Notes:
The signal helps with cause localization when
certain malfunctions are recognized (e.g.
combustion misfires).
The fuel level signal is transferred from the
instrument cluster to the Engine Control Module
(ECM) via CAN-bus. Check data exchange
between Engine Control Module (ECM) and
other CAN capable control modules Page 24
