Engine speed signal, checking

If a malfunction of the RPM display at tachometer
is detected, signal at the tachometer must be
checked.

- Connect VAS5051 tester or VAG1551 scan tool
Page 01

.

- Read Measuring Value Block Page 01
-
114
.

- Select display group number 001 and perform a
road test.
If the speed appears on the VAG1551 Scan Tool
display but not via the speedometer in instrument
cluster, the instrument cluster is faulty and must
be replaced.
If no speed is indicated on the VAG1551 Scan
Tool display either, the signal must be checked
at multi-function connection at instrument
cluster.

- Connect VAG1598 tester with VAG1598/25
adapter to the blue 32-pin connector.

- Perform an acoustic continuity check of the
sensor and wire using the VAG1526 multimeter
between terminal 28 and socket 9 (load Ground
(GND))
Test
The beep signal of the resistance tester must
switch on and off several times while the vehicle
is rolled slightly forward and backward (approx.
1m)
If the test is not OK, the wire connection to speed
sender must be checked.

- Check wire connection according to wiring
diagram.

Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting &
Component Locations If the wire connection is OK, the speed sender
must be replaced.

Signal from sender for fuel gauge -G-,
checking

If a malfunction of the sender for fuel gauge is
detected at instrument cluster, check if the signal
at the instrument cluster is OK.

- Select display group number 2.
If the fuel level appears on the VAG1551 scan
tool display but not via the fuel gauge, the
instrument cluster is faulty and must be
replaced.
If no speed is indicated on the VAG1551 scan
tool display either, the signal must be checked at
multi-function connection at instrument cluster.

- Measure resistance (sensor resistance) between
terminal 5 and 7 using VAG1526 multimeter.
Specified values:
Fuel tank empty: approx. 280 Ohm (Front Wheel
Drive/All Wheel Drive)
Fuel tank full: approx. 40 Ohm (Front Wheel
Drive/All Wheel Drive)

- If the specified values are not reached, check
wire connection between instrument cluster and
the sender for fuel gauge -G- (Front Wheel
Drive/All Wheel Drive) according to wiring
diagram.

Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting &
Component Locations
- If there is neither an open circuit nor a short
circuit, check the sender for fuel gauge -G-

Signal from Engine Coolant
Temperature (ECT) sensor -G2-,
checking

If a malfunction of the Engine Coolant
Temperature (ECT) gauge is detected at the
instrument cluster, check if the signal at the
instrument cluster is OK.

- Select display group number 003.
If the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT)
appears on the VAG1551 scan tool display but
not by the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT)
gauge, the instrument cluster is faulty and must
be replaced.
If no Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) is
indicated on the VAG1551 scan tool display, the
signal must be checked at multi-function
connection at instrument cluster.
