display AUDI A4 1995 B5 / 1.G AC System On Board Diagnostic Workshop Manual

01-2

Notes:

This Repair Manual describes On Board
Diagnostic (OBD) with VAG1551 Scan Tool
(ST). OBD procedures can also be performed
with VAG1552 Scan Tool (ST) (VAG1552 Scan
Tool is not equipped with a printer).
Scan Tool VAG1551 or 1552 must be used in in
operating mode -1- (Rapid data transfer).
Operating mode -2- (Flash code output) is not
provided for A/C and Heating OBD.
Always check DTC memory and perform
necessary repairs before erasing DTC memory.
DTC output is possible only if ignition is on or
engine is running and engine speed is less than
3000 rpm (if engine speed is higher, output is
possible only for a limited time or is terminated).
If a fault exists for a certain time it is stored as a
static fault.
If a static fault is no longer present after a
certain time, it is stored as a sporadic fault and
the reference "SP" appears on the upper right
of the VAG1551 display/print-out.
