Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM)
Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM)
NOTE:
- The DTM can only be performed with the ignition switched on and the engine not running.
- The DTM is terminated if the engine is started or if an engine speed pulse is detected.
- During the DTM, individual control elements will be activated for approx. 1 minute, or until the test program is advanced to the next control element by pressing the -> button.
- The control elements can be tested either by listening or by touching.
- If the DTM is to be repeated, the engine must be started. The engine control module needs to detect an engine speed of more than 300 rpm.
- The electric fuel pump runs continuously throughout the DTM.
The DTM activates the following components in the stated sequence:
Test requirements
- Fuses for engine electronics OK
- Fuel pump relay OK
- Connect vehicle diagnostic, testing and information system VAS 5051 or VAG1551 scan tool and select engine electronics control module by entering address word "01". When doing this the ignition must be switched on. [1][2]Scan Tool Connecting and Initial Checks
