Wastegate bypass regulator valve, 
checking
 
     
Function  
     
With power off, the long connector is closed. 
     Both short connecters are inter-connected. 
     When triggered, the connection between the 
long and both short connectors is opened. 
     
Check for leaks  
     
-  Remove wastegate bypass regulator valve (  
component location, page   Page 24
-1 ) 
     
-  Re-connect removed wastegate bypass 
regulator valve to wiring harness. 
     
-  Start output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) and 
advance through test program to select 
wastegate bypass regulator valve -N75-   Page 
01
-42
 
     
-  Blow into long connector during DTM to check 
whether valve opens properly.

Checking wastegate bypass regulator valve -
N75-  
     
-  Disconnect harness connector from valve -
N75-. 
    
If resistance is not OK:  -  Connect multimeter US 1119 (Fluke 83 or equivalent) to check 
resistance between terminals of valve -N75-. 
  
Specified value: 25-35   - Replace valve.

Check voltage supply for wastegate bypass 
regulator valve -N75-  
     
Note:  
     Voltage supply for the wastegate bypass 
regulator valve is provided by the fuel pump 
relay. 
     
Fuse for -N75- OK 
     
-  Disconnect harness connector from valve.
    
If LED does not light:  
If wiring is OK:  -  Connect VAG 1527B LED test light between harness connector 
terminal 1 and engine Ground. 
-  Operate starter motor. 
   LED test light must light up
-  Check wiring for open circuit between terminal 1 to and fuse, according 
to wiring diagram. Repair if necessary. 
-  Check fuel pump relay     Page 24

Signal for wastegate bypass regulator valve, 
checking  
     
-  Disconnect harness connector for valve -N75 .
    
If LED test light does not blink, or stays on continuously:  -  Connect VAG 1527B LED voltage tester between connector terminals 
1 (B+) and 2. 
-  Start output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) and advance through test 
program to select wastegate bypass regulator valve -N75-   Page 01
