Test box for wiring test, connecting

Recommended special tools and equipment e.g.:
Vehicles with 80-pin Engine Control Module (ECM, engine code AEG)







- VAG1598/22 test box

Vehicles with 121-pin Engine Control Module (ECM, engine code AVH, AZG, BDC)







- VAG1598/31 test box

Requirement
- Ignition switched off.

Work procedure







- Remove inner cover, left plenum chamber, to do this, slide center cover -1- of plenum chamber forward out of catch and remove from instrument panel.

Vehicles with 80-pin Engine Control Module (ECM, engine code AEG)







- Connect VAG1598/22 test box at control module wiring harness.

Vehicles with 121-pin Engine Control Module (ECM, engine code AVH, AZG, BDC)







- Connect VAG1598/31 test box at control module wiring harness. Engine Control Module (ECM) is not connected.

Continuation for all vehicles
When harness connectors are disconnected from the Engine Control Module (ECM) or the battery is disconnected, all adaptation values in the control module are erased. DTC memory content will remain intact however. If the engine is started after this, rough, uneven idle can result. In this case, the readiness code must be generated again.
