Interference Suppression Measures
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 11 other vehicles, including the 2014 Volkswagen Golf, 2014 Volkswagen GTI, 2013 Volkswagen Golf R, 2013 Volkswagen Golf, and 2013 Volkswagen GTI. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
All standard and optional electrical consumers in the vehicle are shielded.
Interference suppression includes all sensors, actuators and all electrical motors in the vehicle, as well as controllers in control modules that could cause high-frequency interference.
For interference suppression, electrical parts capacitors, coils and diodes are installed directly in the electrical components.
Interference suppression components are also built into the connection housings of electrical consumers.
The grounding cables that used to be employed for shielding purposes are no longer used because interference suppression is now done as near as possible to the source of the interference.
