Ignition system, checking

General notes on ignition system


Note:

The battery should only be disconnected and
reconnected when the ignition is turned off,
since otherwise the Engine Control Module
(ECM) can be damaged.
For the electric components to work properly, a
voltage of at least 12.7 V is required.
It is possible that the control module will
recognize a malfunction and store a DTC during
some tests. After completing all tests and
repairs, DTC memory should therefore be
checked and erased if necessary.
If the engine only starts briefly and then turns
off again after troubleshooting, repair or
checking of the components, it may be that the
immobilizer is blocking the Engine Control
Module (ECM). DTC memory must then be
checked and if necessary, control module must
be adapted.

If, after erasing the DTC memory for a test, a DTC relating to the
Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor (hall sensor) is indicated again, even
though all previous tests were OK, the following malfunction is possible:
Repair Manual, 1.8 Liter 4
-Cyl. 5V Turbo Engine Mechanical, Engine
Code(s): AEB, ATW, Repair Group 15; Valvetrain, servicing
- Check following wire connections for open circuit and short circuit to
Ground (GND) and B+:
Harness connector
Terminal
VAG1598/31 test box
Socket
1 (B+) 98
2 (signal) 86
3 (Ground -GND-) 108
- Repair open circuit or short circuit if necessary.

Shutter wheel for Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor is not aligned
properly.
- Unscrew Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor and check whether shutter
wheel is mounted properly at camshaft (if mounted improperly, locking
lug will get squished when mounting bolt is tightened).
- If position of shutter wheel is OK, check allocation of
