Ignition coils and power output stage,
checking


Notes:

The ignition coils and power output stage are
one component.
Measuring the primary resistance of the ignition
coils is not possible.
Measure secondary resistance first with ignition
wires connected to the ignition coil via the spark
plug connector of the respective cylinder (with
this method the interference resistances of the
ignition cables are also measured).

that is OK.
If a different cylinder now misfires:

- Replace faulty spark plug.
If the original cylinder misfires:

- Check ignition coil page 28

Checking ignition coils -N-, -N128- and -N158-


- Disconnect 5-pin connector from ignition coil
assembly.

- Remove ignition wires from spark plugs.

If resistance is NOT OK: - Using multimeter and adapters from VAG1594 connector test kit,
measure resistance between both spark plug connectors of respective
ignition circuit (across coil).

Specification: approx. 18-25 k .- Remove ignition wires from ignition coils and measure resistance
between ends of respective ignition wires.

Specification: approx. 4.0-6.0 k

If resistance values are not as specified:
If resistance values are OK: - Using multimeter and adapters from VAG1594 connector test kit,
measure resistance across both ignition wire connectors of respective
ignition coil.

Specification: 8.0-14.0 k - Replace coils.

Checking signal for power output stage

- Remove connectors from all 6 injectors (DTC
memory will have to be checked and erased
later).

- Switch ignition on.

If LED flashes: - Connect LED tester VAG1527 between engine ground and connector
terminal 3.
- Crank starter for several seconds.
LED in voltage tester must flash.
- Repeat test on 5-pin connector terminals 4 and 5.
- Replace ignition coils -N-, -N128- and -N158- with power output stage -
N122-.
