Special tools and equipment required
- VAG 1526A
- VAG 1527B
- VAG 1594A
- VAG 1598/31
- VAS5051 with VAS5051/1

Test sequence







- Remove front engine cover (arrows).







- Disconnect connector to intake manifold change-over valve -N156- - pos. -1-.

NOTE: Ignore item -2-.

Checking internal resistance







- Connect multimeter to injector to measure resistance.
- Specified value: 25 to 35 Ohms

If specified value is not obtained:
- Replace intake manifold change-over valve -N156-.

If specified value is obtained:

Checking power supply

Test requirements:
- Fuse for intake manifold change-over valve OK
- Fuel pump relay OK; Testing and Inspection

NOTE: Power supply of the intake manifold change-over valve is via the fuel pump relay.

- Connect voltage tester VAG 1527 B as follows:







Connector Measure to
terminal
1 Engine ground

- Operate starter briefly.
- LED should illuminate.

If the LED does not illuminate:
- Check wiring from terminal 1 on connector via fuse to fuel pump relay for an open circuit.
- Repair open circuit if necessary.

If LED lights up:

Checking activation
- Connect voltage tester VAG 1527 B between terminals 1 and 2.
- Initiate Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) and activate intake manifold change-over valve. Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) (Function 03)
- LED should flash.

If the LED lamp does not flash or if it illuminates continuously:
- Connect test box VAG 1598/31 to wiring harness for engine control module; engine control module must not be connected. Wiring and Component Testing Using VAG1598/31 Test Box
- Check for open circuit and short to positive or Ground in following wiring connections:
