Wire for crash signal, checking

The Engine Control Module (ECM) receives the
crash signal ("Crash shut-off was triggered") from
the airbag control module.
When the airbag control module sends the crash
signal to the ECM (during an accident or when
output DTM is being performed for the airbag
system), the ECM switches the Fuel Pump (FP)
off. This means that the engine will stop running
but can be started again afterward (e.g. to
remove vehicle from danger).

- Connect VAG1598/31 test box at wiring harness
to ECM, do not connect ECM Page 24

circuit and short circuit to Ground (GND) and B+:

Rough terrain signal from ABS/EDL
control module, checking


Notes:

When the ABS/EDL control module recognizes
that a wheel is spinning, the ABS/EDL control
module generates the rough terrain signal.
When the Engine Control Module (ECM)
recognizes the rough terrain signal, combustion
misfire recognition is switched off in the Engine
Control Module (ECM).
Only check the rough terrain signal if the
malfunction "18014 (P1606) rough terrain
info/engine torque from ABS cont. mod.
Electrical malfunction in circuit" is stored DTC
memory.It is possible that the malfunction
"Combustion misfire" is also stored in DTC
memory as a side effect and it can be
disregarded.
The wire connection and rough terrain signal
are monitored by the Engine Control Module
(ECM).

Data transfer between Engine Control
Module (ECM) and CAN capable control
modules, checking


Notes:

Data exchange between individual control
modules occurs via a bus system.
The term "CAN-bus" refers to a system that
transports and distributes data.
The wire connections between the control
modules, via which data is transferred, are
referred to as data wires.
Data is transferred to the connected control
modules serially (one after the other) via these
data wires (i.e. engine speed, accelerator
position).

Checking bus system
The DTC table suggested checking the data
exchange between the Engine Control Module
(ECM) and CAN capable control modules.

-
Connect VAS5051 tester or VAG1551 scan tool
and select the control module for engine
electronics using "address word" 01 Page 01

If the correct control modules are installed:

- Check to be sure the multi-pin connectors of the
control modules are securely connected.
If multi-pin connectors are properly secured:

- Check CAN bus system

Checking a "two-line bus system"

Three or more control modules are
communicating across a "two-line bus
system".

- Analyze the DTCs stored in the memories of the
control modules.

Note:
This analysis will help you locate the cause of the
line malfunction.
