Safety precautions
| WARNING | To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or damage to the fuel injection and ignition system, always observe the following: Only disconnect and reconnect wires for injection and ignition system, including test leads, when ignition is turned off. If engine is to be cranked at starting RPM without starting (e.g. for compression testing), disconnect connector from ignition coils and from fuel injectors. Always attach testers and measuring instruments to the back seat and have a second person operate them from there. It is possible that the control module will recognize a malfunction and store a DTC during some tests. After completing all tests and repairs, DTC memory should therefore be checked and erased if necessary. Always switch ignition off before cleaning engine. The battery should only be disconnected and reconnected when the ignition is turned off, since otherwise the Engine Control Module (ECM) can be damaged. |
If special testing equipment is required during test drive, observe the following
| WARNING | If test equipment is operated from the front passenger seat, the person sitting there could be injured if the front passenger airbag were triggered in the event of an accident. Use only the VAS 5051 scan tool to read measured value blocks. Always secure the tester to the rear seat and operate it from there by a second technician. |
| WARNING | The fuel system is pressurized! Before opening the system place a cloth around the connection. Then release pressure by carefully loosening the connection. |
Rules for cleanliness
When working on the fuel supply or fuel injection systems, the following "6 rules of cleanliness" should be carefully observed
- Thoroughly clean all connections and the surrounding area before disconnecting.
- Place parts that have been removed on a clean surface and cover. Use lint-free cloths only!
- Carefully cover opened components or seal them if repairs are not carried out immediately.
- Only install clean components: Only unpack replacement parts immediately prior to installation. Do not use parts that have been stored loose (in tool boxes etc.).
- When the system is open: Do not work with compressed air if it can be avoided. Do not move vehicle unless absolutely necessary.
- Disconnected electrical harness connectors: Protect from dirt and moisture. Be sure harness connector is dry before connecting.

Scheme 8
The threads of the snap-off screws are coated with a locking compound to make it more difficult to remove the snap-off screws.
To disconnect the harness connectors from the Engine Control Module (ECM) (e.g. when connecting a test box or when replacing the ECM), the ECM must be removed from the metal anti-theft housing. This procedure is described as follows.
The following equipment is required
- Heat gun -1- (from VAS1978 Wiring Harness Repair Kit)
- Adapter nozzle -2- (also from VAS1978 Wiring Harness Repair Kit)
- Standard locking pliers
Scheme 9
| WARNING | The following work steps must be adhered to exactly to avoid damage (burning) of wires, harness connectors, insulation and control modules! Observe operating instructions of heat gun. |
Scheme 10
- "Fold" Engine Control Module (ECM) with anti-theft housing in direction of engine compartment so that locking mechanism (item -2- in illustration) becomes visible and place a clean rag below Engine Control Module (ECM) with anti-theft housing.
- Adjust heat gun as shown in illustration, i.e. temperature adjustment -2- to maximum heat output and two-stage switch for air mass -3- to position 3. NOTE: Next, use a heat gun to heat the threads of the locking mechanism into which the snap-off screws are screwed into. This step loosens the locking compound on the threads of the snap-off screws for easier removal. WARNING: By heating the locking mechanism threads, the snap-off screws and parts of the metal anti-theft housing will also become very hot. Be careful not to get burned! If possible, also make sure that only the threads and no other parts in the vicinity become heated. If necessary, cover them.
- Guide nozzle -1- of heat gun to locking mechanism threads so that nozzle "encloses" threads. It is OK to let nozzle make contact at upper end of metal anti-theft housing.
- Switch on heat gun and heat up threads for approx. 20 to 25 seconds.
- Next, using locking pliers -1-, grab screw head -2- and remove snap-off screw by turning in direction of arrow. Procedure for the second snap-off screw is exactly the same. Be very careful since the control module connector is in close proximity.
- Guide nozzle -1- of heat gun to locking mechanism threads again so that nozzle "encloses" threads. It is OK to let nozzle make contact at upper end of metal anti-theft housing.
- Switch on heat gun and heat up threads for approx. 20 to 25 seconds.
- Next, using locking pliers -1-, grab screw head -2- and remove snap-off screw by turning in direction of arrow.
- Disengage connectors from Engine Control Module (ECM) and disconnect connectors.
- Remove old Engine Control Module (ECM) and insert new one.

DISPLAY GROUP 056: IDLING SPEED STABILIZATION AT OPERATING TEMPERATURE
Note. The engine speed (RPM) in display zone 1 (actual speed) is the actual engine speed. The engine speed (RPM) in display zone 2 (specified speed) is a theoretical value calculated by the engine control module. At idle, the ECM always tries to adapt the actual engine speed (RPM) to the desired (specified) engine speed (RPM). This means that the actual engine speed (RPM) must always approximately match the specified engine speed (RPM) at idle. The display zones 3 and 4 are there for information but are irrelevant to the control of the engine at idle.

EPC system function
In the Electronic Power Control (EPC), the throttle valve is not operated by a cable connected to the accelerator pedal. There is no mechanical connection between the accelerator pedal and the throttle valve.
The position of the accelerator pedal is communicated to the Engine Control Module by two Throttle Position (TP) Sensors (variable resistances located in a single housing) connected to the accelerator pedal.
The position of the accelerator pedal (decided by the driver) is one of the main input parameters to the Engine Control Module (ECM).
The throttle valve is activated, over the full range of engine speed and power, by an electric motor (throttle valve actuator) in the Throttle valve control module -J338-.
The throttle valve actuator moves the throttle valve as instructed by the Engine Control Module (ECM).
With the ignition switched on and the engine not running, the Engine Control Module (ECM) controls the throttle valve precisely in accordance with the signals from the Throttle Position (TP) Sensors. This means that when the accelerator is pressed half way down, the throttle valve actuator opens the throttle valve to an equivalent extent; the throttle valve is then about half open.
When the engine is running (and under load), the Engine Control Module (ECM) can open and close the throttle valve independently of the accelerator position sensors.
As an example, the throttle valve can be fully open even though the accelerator pedal is only pressed half way down. This has the advantage of preventing throttle losses at the throttle valve.
Under certain engine load conditions, markedly improved emission and consumption figures are also obtained.
The engine torque necessary can be provided by the Engine Control Module (ECM) by an optimum combination of throttle opening and charge pressure.
The Electronic Power Control (EPC) system does not simply consist of one or two components but is, rather, a system which includes all the components which contribute to determining the position of the throttle valve and to controlling and monitoring this position. These components include, for example, the Throttle Valve Control Module, the EPC warning lamp, the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Electronic Power Control (EPC) Warning Lamp -K132- in instrument cluster
Note. The Electronic Power Control (EPC) Warning Lamp -K132- is also known as the EPC warning lamp.
"EPC" is an abbreviation for Electronic Power Control and refers to the Electronic Power Control system.
When the ignition is switched on, the Engine Control Module (ECM) checks all the components of importance to the Electronic Power Control (EPC).
After switching on the ignition the Engine Control Module (ECM) switches on the Electronic Power Control (EPC) Warning Lamp -K132-. The EPC lamp goes out shortly after starting the engine, if, on the one hand, the Engine Control Module (ECM) does not detect any malfunctions in the EPC system, and, on the other, if activation of the lamp by the Engine Control Module (ECM) is OK.
If a malfunction is detected in the Electronic Power Control (EPC) while the engine is running, the Engine Control Module (ECM) switches on the Electronic Power Control (EPC) Warning Lamp -K132-. (These DTCs are listed in the DTC table). At the same time, an entry is made in the Engine Control Module DTC memory.
Functional check of warning lamp
- Switch ignition on. Engine Control Module (ECM) switches on the Electronic Power Control (EPC) Warning Lamp -K132-.
- Start engine. Shortly after starting the engine the exhaust warning lamp goes out if no malfunction in relation to the EPC is stored in the DTC memory.
Note. The switch-on signal for the warning lamp is transferred via CAN-bus to the instrument cluster by the Engine Control Module. Check the data exchange between Engine Control Module (ECM) and other CAN-bus control modules. Go to DATA EXCHANGE, MOTRONIC / ABS (CAN - BUS), CHECKING .
Throttle Valve Control Module -J338-, checking
The following components are located in the housing of the Throttle Valve Control Module -J338-.
- Throttle drive (power accelerator activation) -G186-. (This is an electric motor which is activated by the Engine Control Module (ECM). This electric motor opens the throttle valve against the force of a spring).
- Angle sensor 1 for throttle drive (power accelerator activation) -G187
- Angle sensor 2 for throttle drive (power accelerator activation) -G188
Note. The housing of the Throttle Valve Control Module -J338- must not be opened. The angle sensors are in the form of potentiometers (variable resistances). They provide the position of the throttle valve to the Engine Control Module (ECM) completely independently of one another. The potentiometers cannot be adjusted mechanically. The settings are made as part of basic setting (function 04) using the vehicle diagnosis, measurement and information system VAS 5051.
Throttle Valve Control Module -J338-, adapting
The adaptation process enables the Engine Control Module (ECM) to learn the various positions of the throttle valve with the ignition switched on and the engine not running. These positions are stored in the control module. The feedback signal indicating the position of the throttle valve comes from the two throttle drive angle sensors.
If the Throttle Valve Control Module -J338- or the Engine Control Module (ECM) are removed, installed or replaced or if the voltage supply from the Engine Control Module (ECM) is interrupted, adaptation must always be performed.
The learning process (adaptation process) is performed
- Automatically if the ignition is switched on once for at least 10 seconds without activating the starter or the accelerator pedal and the Engine Control Module (ECM) recognizes "adaptation requirement". In this case, however, it is not obvious whether the adaptation process was successful or not. Adaptation requirement is recognized if stored voltage values from the angle sensors do not coincide with current measured voltage values in a certain tolerance band.
- By initiating the basic setting (Function 04) of display group 060 with ignition switched on.
Note. Engine will not start during automatic adaptation.

- Activate basic setting by pressing -A- button.
- Check specifications for Throttle Valve Control Module -J338- in display fields -3- and -4-.
The throttle valve drive is initially connected without voltage present.
In this condition, the throttle valve is pulled into an emergency running position by a mechanical spring which is located in the Throttle Valve Control Module -J338-. The values supplied by the two angle sensors in this emergency running position are stored in the Engine Control Module (ECM).
The throttle valve is then opened by a predetermined amount. When this value is reached, the throttle valve drive is again disconnected from the voltage supply. The mechanical spring should then close the throttle valve to the previously learned emergency running position within a specified period of time (spring test).
The throttle valve drive then closes the throttle valve; the values supplied by the angle sensors in the Throttle Valve Control Module -J338- are stored in the Engine Control Module (ECM).
If the Engine Control Module (ECM) disconnects the throttle valve drive from the voltage supply while the vehicle is being driven, the result will be an increased and fluctuating idling speed and a very poor throttle response.

Note. The reason why the value indicated in display field 1 climbs, while the value indicated in display field 2 decreases, has to do with the fact that the potentiometers (angle sensors) in the Throttle Valve Control Module -J338- run in opposite directions. This means that the voltage of angle sensor 1 runs from 0 to 5 volts. (The more the throttle valve is opened, the larger the voltage; percent indication climbs). The voltage of angle sensor 2 runs from 5 to 0 volts. (The more the throttle valve is opened, the lower the voltage; the percentage decreases).

Crash signal, checking
The Engine Control Module (ECM) receives the crash signal ("Crash cut-off was triggered") from the airbag control module.
The airbag control module sends the crash signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM) (during an accident or if a Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) is carried out relating to the airbag system), the ECM switches off the fuel pump. This means that the engine will stop running but can be started again afterward (e.g. to remove vehicle from danger).
- Connect test box V.A.G 1598/31 to wiring harness for Engine Control Module (ECM); do not connect test box directly to Engine Control Module (ECM). Go to «ELECTRICAL TESTING USING VAG1598/31 TEST BOX»(/audi/a4/b7-2004-2009/remont/fuel-system/#multiport-fuel-injection-mfi-18l-5v-turbo-amb__electrical-testing-using-vag159831-test-box) .

- Repair any open/short circuit as necessary. See appropriate System Wiring Diagram article. If no problems with wires are found
- Check DTC memory of Airbag Control Module -J234-.
Data exchange, Motronic / ABS (CAN-bus), checking
Note. Data exchange between individual control modules occurs via a bus system. The term "bus" refers to a system that transports and distributes data. The wire connections between the control modules, via which data is transferred, are referred to as data wires. Data is transferred to the connected control modules serially (one after the other) across the data wires.
Checking the bus system
The DTC table suggested checking the data exchange between the Engine / Transmission / ABS control modules.
- Check whether correct engine, transmission (if installed) and ABS control modules are installed in this vehicle (part numbers) and whether coding is appropriate for control modules. (Refer to indicated ID codes for control modules).
- Connect VAS 5051. Go to «VAS 5051 VEHICLE DIAGNOSTIC, TESTING AND INFORMATION SYSTEM, CONNECTING AND SELECTING FUNCTIONS»(/audi/a4/b7-2004-2009/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-on-board-diagnostic-obd-18l-5v-turbo-amb) . Select vehicle system "01 - Engine electronics" in selection.

Scheme 108
- Under -1- select diagnostic function "02 - Check DTC memory - Total system". The DTC memory is then checked for all systems in the vehicle which are capable of On Board Diagnostic (OBD). If a control module answers with its identification, the number of DTCs stored or "No DTCs detected" appears on the display.
Any system DTCs that are stored are displayed successively. The VAS 5051 will then transmit the next address word.
If a DTC is displayed relating to "Data bus drive" or "...CAN bus"
- Check that Engine Control Module (ECM) and other CAN-compatible control modules installed are suitable for this vehicle (part no. and code).
- Check that multiple connectors for control modules are properly seated.
- Check CAN bus system.
The following systematic procedure is useful for troubleshooting if three or more control modules are communicating via a "two-line bus system"
- Evaluate DTCs stored in control modules. NOTE: This analysis will help you locate the cause of the line malfunction.
Example 1
The DTCs stored in the DTC memory indicate that the control module 1 does not communicate with control modules 2 and 3.
Scheme 109
| Control module | DTCs stored in DTC memory |
|---|---|
| 1 | No message from control module 2 No message from control module 3 |
| 2 | No message from control module 1 |
| 3 | No message from control module 1 |
CONTROL MODULE 1 DOES NOT COMMUNICATE WITH CONTROL MODULES 2 AND 3 (EXAMPLE 1)
- Switch ignition off.
- Disconnect control modules connected across bus wires and check bus wires for an open circuit. See appropriate System Wiring Diagram article.
- Replace control module 1 if no malfunctions can be found in bus wires.
Example 2
From the DTCs stored in the memories, you have determined that control module 2 is not communicating with control modules 1 and 3.
Scheme 110
| Control module | DTCs stored in DTC memory |
|---|---|
| 1 | No message from control module 2 |
| 2 | No message from control module 1 No message from control module 3 |
| 3 | No message from control module 2 |
CONTROL MODULE 2 IS NOT COMMUNICATING WITH CONTROL MODULES 1 AND 3 (EXAMPLE 2)
