- Throttle Position switch OK Testing and Inspection
NOTE:
- To activate the fuel injectors, the Throttle Position switch (in the Throttle Valve Control Module) must also be operated
- The output DTM can only be carried out if the engine is not running and the ignition switched on.
- The output DTM will be stopped if the engine is started or a rotational impulse is recognized.
- Components are checked audibly or by touch.
- If it is necessary to repeat the output DTM, without first running the engine, switch the ignition off for approx. 2 seconds.

If wiring OK:
- Check -N80- voltage supply using wiring diagram, replace ECM -J220- if necessary.
EGR vacuum regulator solenoid valve -N18- activating
- Press -> button.
Display will appear as shown
Output Diagnostic Test Mode ->
EGR vacuum regulator solenoid valve -N18
- EGR valve must click until next DTM component is selected by pressing button
If EGR valve does not click:
- Disconnect 2-pin harness connector from -N18- valve and connect VAG 1527B LED tester to disconnected connector using jumper wires from VW 1594 adapter kit.
- LED must flash
If LED flashes:
- Replace EGR vacuum regulator solenoid valve
If LED does not flash:
- Switch ignition off.
