|
|
|
– |
Partially detach cover -1- in
floor covering at parting line -arrow-. |
– |
Do not detach cover completely from floor covering in order
to ensure it is reinstalled in the correct installation
position. |
– |
Detach it just enough that the cover can be folded upwards. |
– |
Fold up cover in -direction of arrow-. |
– |
Remove rear bench seat
→ General body repairs, interior; Rep. gr.72. |
|
|
|
Continuation for all vehicles: |
– |
Unclip cover -1- for flange at
retaining tabs -arrows-, using
removal wedge -3409-. |
|
|
|
– |
Unclip sealing grommet -1-
downwards from cover -2-. |
– |
Push cover -2- back along
wiring harness -3-. |
|
|
|
– |
Press up tab -2- in
-direction of arrow A-; to do so,
reach between floor panel and fuel tank with your finger. |
– |
At the same time, carefully pull fuel pump control unit-1-
out of mounting -in direction of arrow B-
by grasping hold of wiring harness -3-. |
– |
Guide fuel pump control unit -J538- out towards interior
between fuel tank and floor panel. |
– |
Place fuel pump control unit -J538- (with connector still
connected) to one side. |
|
|
|
– |
Check that connector -1- is
fitted securely by pulling connector without pressing catch. The
connector can cause a fault if it has not been fitted correctly. |
– |
Release and pull off connector -1-. |
– |
Check contacts on plug and on fuel delivery unit for damage. |
– |
If fitted, unclip connector -2-
from retainer. |
|
|
|
– |
Connect test instrument adapter/DSO (5-pin) -VAS 5565- to
fuel delivery unit -1-. |
– |
Connect remote control -V.A.G 1348/3A- to adapter -VAS 5565-
and to battery positive terminal in engine compartment. |
– |
Connect connection -5- (yellow)
of test instrument adapter/DSO (5-pin) -VAS 5565- to battery
negative terminal using suitable workshop equipment
-3-. |
– |
Also use auxiliary measuring set -V.A.G 1594C- for this
purpose. |
Note
This step serves only to have the fuel pump running when the
engine is stopped. |
|
|
|
– |
Pull fuel line -1- off flange.
Separate plug-in connectors
→ Chapter. |
The fuel system is pressurised.Risk of injury due to fuel which may
spurt out.Wear eye protection.Wear protective gloves.Release pressure:
place clean cloth around connection and carefully open connection. |
|
|
– |
The quantity of fuel delivered by the fuel pump is dependant
on the battery voltage. The multimeter must therefore be
connected to contacts -1- and
-5- of 5-pin test instrument/DSO
adapter -VAS 5565- as well. |
– |
Connect multimeter with auxiliary measuring set -V.A.G
1594C-. |
|
|
|
– |
Connect pressure tester -VAS 6550- with hose -VAS 6550/3-4-
to fuel delivery unit -1-. |
– |
Connect hose -VAS 6550/3-4- to shut-off tap
-A-. |
– |
Connect pressure relief valve -VAS 6550/4- to connection
-B- of pressure tester -VAS 6550- |
– |
Hold end of hose of pressure relief valve -VAS 6550/4- in
measuring container. |
|
|
|
– |
Ensure that drain tap -C- on
pressure tester-1- is closed. |
– |
Shut-off valves -A- and
-B- on pressure tester-1-
are open. |
– |
Press remote control -V.A.G 1348/3A-. |
Note
The fuel system pressurisation pump -G6- will be actuated. |
|
|
|
– |
Set pressure of 4.0 bar on pressure regulating valve-arrow-
using adjuster wheel. |
– |
Keep the adjuster wheel in this position from this point on. |
– |
Drain measuring container. |
– |
Press remote control for 60 seconds whilst measuring voltage
at fuel pump. |
|
|
|
– |
Compare delivered quantity of fuel with specification
indicated in chart. |

During the test a voltage of 10.5 volts is measured. This
equates to a minimum delivery rate of approx. 1,200 cm3
in 60 seconds. |
If specification is attained: |
– |
Check fuel lines for possible restrictions (kinks) or
blockages. |
– |
Check fuel lines for leaks and damage. |
If the specification is not attained: |
– |
Remove fuel delivery unit
→ Chapter. |
|
|
|
– |
Check filter strainer for soiling. |
– |
Check that all fuel delivery unit -1-
hose connections -arrows- are
connected. |
– |
