1. Connect the VAG 1598/18 tester to the engine control unit wiring harness (fig. 3.34).

2. Check the wires and the knock sensor for short circuit: sockets 19 and 39, 39 and 45, 19 and 45. Specification resistance: ∞ Ohms.

3. If no short circuit is found, remove the starter.

4. Disconnect wiring connector 1 from knock sensor 2 (Fig. 3.46).

4. Disconnect wiring connector 1 from knock sensor 2 (Fig. 3.46).


5. Check the wires between the tester and the knock sensor for open circuit: pin 1 + socket 39, pin 2 + socket 19 Wire resistance: max. 1.5 Ohm.

7. Additionally check the resistance of the knock sensor contacts. Specific resistance: ∞ Ohm.

8. If no faults are found in the wiring, loosen the knock sensor fasteners and tighten it again to 20 Nm.

9. Install the starter.

10. Perform a test run. The following conditions must be met throughout the test:
  • the coolant temperature should not be higher than 80°C;
  • after reaching the required temperature, perform the following modes: idle, partial load, full load. In full load mode, the rotation speed should be higher than 3500 rpm.

11. Read the fault memory again.
