CAUTION!
During the final road test, make sure that at
least one controlled brake test is included
(pulsations must be felt at the brake pedal).
Absolute cleanliness is required when
working on the ABS or ABS/EDL system. DO
NOT use any products that contain mineral
oil, such as oils, greases, etc.
Thoroughly clean all connections and the
immediate vicinity before loosening. DO NOT
use aggressive cleaning agents such as
brake cleaner, gasoline or thinners.
Place removed parts on a clean surface and
cover. DO NOT use fluffy cloths.
Carefully seal or cover opened components
if a repair cannot be completed immediately.
After separating the ABS hydraulic unit and
ABS control module, always use the plastic
foam transportation protection for the valve
dome, and always use the sealing plug kit
Part No. 1 H0 693 311 A.
Only install replacement parts that were
packed in their original packaging. Only
remove them immediately before installation. When the hydraulic system is open DO NOT
work with compressed air in the vicinity and
DO NOT move the vehicle.
Take precautions to make sure that brake
fluid does not enter any wiring harness
connectors. Page 3 of 3Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) and ABS with Electronic Differential Lock (ABS/EDL), Teves 20 GI12/7/2004http://ebahn.bentleypublishers.com/vw/servlet/Display?action=Goto&type=repair&id=VW.B4.SU01.45.2

6 - Brake servo On gas engines the
vacuum required is
taken from the intake
manifold. On Diesel engines an
exhauster is installed
to create the required
vacuum. Functional check - With engine
switched off,
depress brake pedal
firmly several times
(to exhaust the
vacuum in the unit).
- Now depress brake
pedal with average
foot pressure, hold
and start engine. If
the servo unit is working properly, the pedal will be felt to
give slightly under
foot (servo
assistance becomes
effective). If faulty replace
complete. Check valve (item 14 )
is in vacuum hose Functional check - It must be possible
to blow through in
direction of arrow.
- Blowing against the arrow the valve must seat. Page 2 of 4Assembly overview: brake master cylinder/brake servo12/7/2004http://ebahn.bentleypublishers.com/vw/servlet/Display?action=Goto&type=repair&id=VW.B4.SU01.47.1
