Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM)


Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM)

Note:
- All functions which could previously be performed with V.A.G. 1551 can also be performed with the tester VAS 5051.
- The pump motor and the correct functioning of the hydraulic circuits (allocation of brake lines to wheel cylinders and function of valves) can be checked via the output DTM for interchange or leaks.
- The vehicle must be raised until all wheels are free to turn. (2nd mechanic required to rotate wheels)
- The -C- key can be used to exit the test sequence at any time.
- After depressing the brake pedal several times the vacuum in the brake booster will be exhausted. Therefore more pressure must be applied to the brake pedal in order to attain the same fluid pressure in brake system, as that attained with vacuum.
- When vacuum in brake booster is exhausted wheels may not lock; start engine and build-up vacuum in brake booster.

Example: Indicated on V.A.G 1551 display during output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM):
(e.g. front left wheel, FL)





IFL = Inlet valve Front Left
VBAT = Voltage Battery; Voltage at valve
0FL = Outlet valve Front Left
0V = 0 Volt; No voltage at valve
Locked/free = Wheel condition; must be checked by 2nd mechanic if required





Hydr-P = Hydraulic pump
