stores them in a permanent memory.
Malfunctions which can be attributed to a temporary open circuit
in the wiring or a loose contact, will also be stored. These mal‐
functions will be displayed as sporadic DTCs “SP”.
After the ignition is switched on, the Airbag Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL) -K75- comes on for about 4 seconds and then goes
out again. If the lamp then flashes for a further 15 seconds this
signals that the airbags or the belt tensioners are electronically
blocked.
♦ If the warning lamp -K75- does not go out again after about 4
seconds, then the voltage supply to the Airbag Control Module
-J234- is malfunctioning. Check DTC memory
⇒ “1.2.4 DTC Memory, Checking”, page 11 .
♦ A malfunction is present if the warning lamp -K75- lights up
again. Check DTC memory
⇒ “1.2.4 DTC Memory, Checking”, page 11 .
♦ If the warning lamp -K75- flashes continuously then the control
module -J234- must be replaced.
To commence troubleshooting, initiate self-diagnosis and retrieve
the stored information with the scan tool -VAG1551- .
The malfunction information displayed is used to refer to a DTC
table with notes on the possible causes for directed repair meas‐
ures.

Caution

♦ Only visual check of wiring!


♦ Do not carry out electrical continuity tests or measurements
to igniter circuits!
♦ Only check wiring with ignition switched off!

1.3.1 Functional Description


The locking units located in the doors (door lock) have an electric
motor.
The motor locks the door and also takes care of the “Safe” con‐
dition, i.e. after locking at an external lock (door lock, tailgate,
radio remote control) the vehicle is protected against theft and
can no longer be unlocked from the interior. The feedback on the
respective condition in control module occurs via the contact
switch in the locking unit.
All the known convenience functions can be performed with the
electric convenience system, interior lights control, ATA with in‐
terior monitoring (see description of system on

⇒ “1.3.3 Interior Monitoring System, Description”, page 33 ),


electric windows, mirror and the radio remote control.
If the Airbag Control Module is triggered, a signal is sent to the
convenience control module to unlock the doors.
The Convenience System Control Module -J393- is located under
the instrument panel and is secured with a bracket to the steering
column. It is equipped with a DTC memory. The On Board Diag‐
nostic (OBD) connection is located under the driver's knee bar to
left of the steering wheel.
The control module recognizes DTC's and malfunctions in the
central locking convenience system (convenience system in‐
cludes central locking, antitheft alarm, electric windows, radio
wave remote control, mirror) and stores them in a nonvolatile
memory.
Testers -VAG1551- and -VAG1552- can be used to check the
DTC memories and code the control modules as well as the func‐
tion On Board Diagnostic (OBD) of the -VAS5051- .
The function “Guided Troubleshooting” of the -VAS5051- should
be used for troubleshooting in diagnostic capable systems. Using
this system a systematic malfunction check is guaranteed, from
the fuses via wiring, connections in the current path.:
⇒ Operating instructions for Vehicle Diagnosis, Testing and In‐
formation System -VAS5051- .
The malfunction information displayed is used to refer to a DTC
table with notes on the possible causes for directed repair meas‐
ures.
Malfunctions which can be attributed to a temporary open circuit
in the wiring or a loose contact, will also be stored. These mal‐
functions will be displayed as sporadic DTCs “SP”.

♦ The DTC table is listed according to the 5 digit code on the left.
♦ Some of the mentioned DTC texts are only displayed on the -
VAS5051- . On the -VAG1551- , only the DTC will be printed
in this case.
♦ The possible malfunctions are dependant on the respective
vehicle equipment.
♦ Explanation of the malfunction types (e.g. “open circuit/short
circuit to Ground”): ⇒ Scan tool operating instructions
♦ Before replacing components indicated as being malfunction‐
ing, check the wiring and connectors to these components as
well as the Ground connections using wiring diagram. This is
particularly relevant if DTC's are output as “occurring
sporadically” (SP).
♦ The DTC's displayed can be localized using the test table.

1.4.1 Functional Description


The locking units located in the doors (door lock) have an electric
motor.
The motor locks the door and also takes care of the “Safe” con‐
dition, i.e. after locking at an external lock (door lock, tailgate,
radio remote control) the vehicle is protected against theft and

112 Rep. Gr.01 - On Board Diagnostic (OBD)


Golf/GTI, Jetta, R32 1999 ➤
Body On Board Diagnostic - Edition 07.2007

can no longer be unlocked from the interior. The feedback on the


respective condition in control module occurs via the contact
switch in the locking unit.
All the known convenience functions can be performed with the
electric convenience system, interior lights control, ATA with in‐
terior monitoring and the radio remote control.
If the Airbag Control Module is triggered, a signal is sent to the
convenience control module to unlock the doors.
The Central Locking Control Module -J379- is located under the
instrument panel and is secured by a bracket to the steering col‐
umn. It is equipped with a DTC memory. The On Board Diagnostic
(OBD) connection is located under the driver's knee bar to left of
the steering wheel.
The control module detects malfunctions in the central locking
system and stores them in a permanent memory.
To commence troubleshooting, initiate self-diagnosis and retrieve
the stored information with the scan tool -VAG1551- .
System tester -VAG1552- may also be used.
The malfunction information displayed is used to refer to a DTC
table with notes on the possible causes for directed repair meas‐
ures.

Cautions & Warnings

Please read these WARNINGS and CAUTIONS before proceeding with maintenance
and repair work. You must answer that you have read and you understand these
WARNINGS and CAUTIONS before you will be allowed to view this information.

•= If you lack the skills, tools and equipment, or a suitable workshop for any procedure described in this manual, we
suggest you leave such repairs to an authorized Volkswagen retailer or other qualified shop. We especially urge
you to consult an authorized Volkswagen retailer before beginning repairs on any vehicle that may still be covered
wholly or in part by any of the extensive warranties issued by Volkswagen.

•= Disconnect the battery negative terminal (ground strap) whenever you work on the fuel system or the electrical
system. Do not smoke or work near heaters or other fire hazards. Keep an approved fire extinguisher handy.

•= Volkswagen is constantly improving its vehicles and sometimes these changes, both in parts and specifications,
are made applicable to earlier models. Therefore, part numbers listed in this manual are for reference only. Always
check with your authorized Volkswagen retailer parts department for the latest information.

•= Any time the battery has been disconnected on an automatic transmission vehicle, it will be necessary to
reestablish Transmission Control Module (TCM) basic settings using the VAG 1551 Scan Tool (ST).

•= Never work under a lifted vehicle unless it is solidly supported on stands designed for the purpose. Do not support
a vehicle on cinder blocks, hollow tiles or other props that may crumble under continuous load. Never work under a
vehicle that is supported solely by a jack. Never work under the vehicle while the engine is running.

•= For vehicles equipped with an anti-theft radio, be sure of the correct radio activation code before disconnecting the
battery or removing the radio. If the wrong code is entered when the power is restored, the radio may lock up and
become inoperable, even if the correct code is used in a later attempt.

•= If you are going to work under a vehicle on the ground, make sure that the ground is level. Block the wheels to
keep the vehicle from rolling. Disconnect the battery negative terminal (ground strap) to prevent others from
starting the vehicle while you are under it.

rrectne

only once and are unreliable and may fail if used a second time. This includes, but is not limited to, nuts, bolts,
washers, circlips and cotter pins. Always follow the recommendations in this manual - replace these fasteners with

Cautions & Warnings
•= Illuminate the work area adequately but safely. Use a portable safety light for working inside or under the vehicle.
Make sure the bulb is enclosed by a wire cage. The hot filament of an accidentally broken bulb can ignite spilled
fuel or oil.

•= Friction materials such as brake pads and clutch discs may contain asbestos fibers. Do not create dust by
grinding, sanding, or by cleaning with compressed air. Avoid breathing asbestos fibers and asbestos dust.
Breathing asbestos can cause serious diseases such as asbestosis or cancer, and may result in death.

•= Finger rings should be removed so that they cannot cause electrical shorts, get caught in running machinery, or be
crushed by heavy parts.

•= Before starting a job, make certain that you have all the necessary tools and parts on hand. Read all the
instructions thoroughly; do not attempt shortcuts. Use tools that are appropriate to the work and use only
replacement parts meeting Volkswagen specifications. Makeshift tools, parts and procedures will not make good
repairs.

•= Catch draining fuel, oil or brake fluid in suitable containers. Do not use empty food or beverage containers that
might mislead someone into drinking from them. Store flammable fluids away from fire hazards. Wipe up spills at
once, but do not store the oily rags, which can ignite and burn spontaneously.

•= Use pneumatic and electric tools only to loosen threaded parts and fasteners. Never use these tools to tighten
fasteners, especially on light alloy parts. Always lkswaagetorque

Cautions & Warnings
•= Do not quick-charge the battery (for boost starting) for longer than one minute, and do not exceed 16.5 volts at the
battery with the boosting cables attached. Wait at least one minute before boosting the battery a second time.

•= Never use a test light to conduct electrical tests of the airbag system. The system must only be tested by trained
Volkswagen Service technicians using the VAG 1551 Scan Tool (ST) or an approved equivalent. The airbag unit
must never be electrically tested while it is not installed in the vehicle.

•= Some aerosol tire inflators are highly flammable. Be extremely cautious when repairing a tire that may have been
inflated using an aerosol tire inflator. Keep sparks, open flame or other sources of ignition away from the tire repair
area. Inflate and deflate the tire at least four times before breaking the bead from the rim. Completely remove the
tire from the rim before attempting any repair.

•= When driving or riding in an airbag-equipped vehicle, never hold test equipment in your hands or lap while the
vehicle is in motion. Objects between you and the airbag can increase the risk of injury in an accident.
