- Fuel Pump (FP) OK, checking. Testing and Inspection

Checking Internal Resistance
- Disconnect connector from Intake Manifold Change-Over Valve -N156-.







- Connect multimeter at valve for resistance measurement.
- Specification: 25 to 35 Ohms

- Replace Intake Manifold Change-Over Valve -N156- if specified value is not obtained.

Checking Voltage Supply
- Disconnect connector from Intake Manifold Change-Over Valve -N156-.







- Connect VAG1527B voltage tester as follows:

Harness connector Terminal Measure to
1 Engine Ground (GND)

- Operate starter briefly.
- LED must light up.

If LED does not light up:
- Check wire connection from terminal 1 to Fuel Pump (FP) relay via fuse for open circuit.

Checking Activation







- Connect VAG1527B voltage tester between terminals 1 and 2
- Initiate output Diagnostic Test Mode and activate the intake manifold change-over valve. Refer to "Scan Tool Testing/Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) (Function 03)", Testing and Inspection
- LED must blink.

If LED does not blink or if it remains constantly lit:
- Connect VAG1598/31 test box at wiring harness to ECM, do not connect ECM. Refer to "Scan Tool Testing/Wire And Component Test Using VAG1598/31 Test Box", Testing and Inspection







- Check the following wire connection for open circuit and short circuit to Ground (GND) and B+:
