Acceleration Enrichment & Deceleration Fuel Cut-Off
- Ensure engine is cold and A/C system is turned off. Connect Scan Tester (VAG 1551) to Data Link Connectors (DLC) located in center console, in front of shift lever. Start engine and allow it to idle.
- With scan tester in READ MEASUREMENT BLOCK function, read coolant temperature value in channel No. 1 of scan tester. Value must be greater than 96, which corresponds to a coolant temperature less than 140°F (60°C).
- With scan tester in READ MEASUREMENT BLOCK function, quickly open throttle to wide open position and read acceleration enrichment value in channel No. 9 of scan tester. A display value of 70 must appear briefly.
- If this value is not obtained, check idle and full throttle switches. See ADJUSTMENTS - 4-CYL article. If a value of 70 is obtained, allow engine coolant temperature to reach at least 140°F (60°C). Value in channel No. 1 of scan tester must be less than 95.
- With scan tester in READ MEASUREMENT BLOCK function, accelerate engine to more than 3000 RPM then allow throttle to close suddenly. Deceleration fuel cut-off value of 133 must appear briefly in channel No. 9 of scan tester.
- If a value of 133 is obtained, select END OUTPUT function on scan tester. If a value of 133 is not obtained, check idle and full throttle switches, wiring harness, or replace Electronic Control Module (ECM) as necessary.
