If wiring is OK:

- Check ECT sensor resistance across terminal 1 (signal) and terminal 3
(ground).
- Check measured resistance value for appropriate temperature range
using graph below (N24-0157).

Range A: 0 to 50 C

Range B: 50 to 100 C

Examples:
If resistance is NOT OK:
At 30 C, ECT sensor resistance should be 1500-2000 At 80 C, ECT sensor resistance should be 275-375
- Replace Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor -G62-.
- Check readiness code Page 01

. If Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC) memory has been erased, or ECM was disconnected, generate

Note:
When reinstalling the fuel injectors be careful not to damage the O-rings. - Disconnect harness connector for Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT)
sensor -G62-.
-
Adjust VAG 1630 digital potentiometer to 15 k setting.- Connect to ECT sensor harness connector terminals 1 and 3, using
adapter cables from VW 1594 connector test kit.
- With the aid of a helper, briefly crank starter.
Fuel injectors must spray according to the firing order.
- Switch ignition off, and check for leaks at fuel injectors.
Fuel injectors may not drip more than 2 drops per minute.
