Test 2: Possible cause:

- Cable fault
Affected functions:

- Engine diagnosis
- Fuel system

1. Test control signal for component Fuel pump.

Test 1.1: Measure resistance at component 'Fuel pump'.

Test 1.2: Terminal 15 Test control signal for component N118 (Fuel pump control module).

1.1. Measure resistance at component 'Fuel pump'.
Test sequence

- Switch off ignition.
- Disconnect 8-pin plug from component N118 (Fuel pump control module).
- Connect socket box to component N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit).
- Disconnect the socket F(2) at control module N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit).
- Test cable for open circuit.
- Measure resistance with multimeter between socket N118.2.2 and socket [F17] 113 of the 126-pole socket box tester.
- Specified value for line resistances:< 1ohms
Is the measurement value OK?

YES
The measurement value is OK.Further possible causes of fault

- Test cable for short circuit to ground.
- Test cable for short circuit to positive.
- Inspect plug connections for corrosion, pinched insulation and loose contact.
End of test

NO
The measurement value is not OK.Possible cause and remedy

- Repair / replace faulty wiring between N118 (Fuel pump control module) and N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit)
End of test

1.2. Terminal 15 Test control signal for component N118 (Fuel pump control module).
Test sequence

- Switch off ignition.
- Unplug socket A und B from component N118 (Fuel pump control module).
- Measure direct voltage with multimeter between sockets A1 and B5
- Switch on ignition.
- Specified value:11V - 15V
Is the measurement value OK?

YES
The measurement value is OK.End of test

NO
The measurement value is not OK.Possible cause and remedy

- Test fuse, replace if necessary
- Inspect plug connections for corrosion, pinched insulation and loose contact.
- N10/1Fuse and relay modules
End of test
