Note:
- Voltage for the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve N80 is supplied by the Fuel Pump (FP) Relay J17.
Test procedure
- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Service and Repair
Start diagnosis
- Remove the engine cover with air filter.
- Disconnect the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve N80 electrical harness connector - arrow -.
Checking internal resistance
- Using a Multimeter, check the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve N80 terminals 1 and 2 for resistance.
Specified value: 22.0 to 30.0 Ohms.
If the specified value is not obtained:
- Replace the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve N80.
If the specification is obtained:
Checking voltage supply
- Using a Multimeter, check the electrical harness connector terminal 1 to 2 for voltage.
- Operate the starter briefly.
Specified value: battery voltage.
If the specified value was not obtained:
- Using a Multimeter, check the electrical harness connector terminal 1 voltage.
- Operate the starter briefly.
Specified value: battery voltage.
If the specified value is not obtained:
- Check the wiring connection from the electrical harness connector terminal 1 to the Fuel Pump (FP) Relay J17 terminal 23/87 for an open circuit.
- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.
- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.
If the specified value was obtained:
Check Ground (GND) activation
- Using a Multimeter, check the electrical harness connector voltage.
- Operate the starter briefly.
Specified value: battery voltage.
- Switch the ignition off.
If the specified value was not obtained:
If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.
- Install the test box Test Box 105 Pin VAG1598/31.
If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.
- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J220. Service and Repair
- Using a Multimeter, check the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve N80 electrical connector terminal 2 to Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J220 electrical connector T121 terminal 5 for an open circuit.
Specified value: 1.5 Ohms max.
If the specification is not obtained:
- Check the wiring for a short circuit to Battery positive (+) or an open circuit.
- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.
- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.
If the specification was obtained:
- Erase the DTC memory. Diagnostic Mode 4: Reset/Erase Diagnostic Data
- Perform a road test to verify repair.
If the DTC does not return:
Repair complete, Generate readiness code. Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes
- End diagnosis.
If the DTC does return and no malfunction is detected in the wiring and the voltage supply was OK:
- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J220. Service and Repair
- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the removal.
Final procedures
After the repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:
1. Check the DTC memory.
2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory.
3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code.
End diagnosis
