- Using Adapter Cable (VAG 1598/11) and DVOM in 20-volt range, check voltage between adapter cable terminal No. 16 and ground with ignition on. Voltage should be less than 5 volts and blower should not operate. If conditions are not as specified, check for short to battery voltage in Green/Black wire between fresh air blower control module and A/C-heater control panel. Check fresh air blower control module. Repair or replace as necessary.
- Check voltage between adapter cable terminal No. 14 and ground with ignition on. Battery voltage should exist. If battery voltage does not exist, check Black/White wire between A/C-heater control panel and fresh air blower. Repair as necessary.
- Check voltage between adapter cable terminal No. 11 and ground with ignition on. Battery voltage should exist. If battery voltage does not exist, check Brown/Green wire between fresh air blower control module and fresh air blower. Repair as necessary.
- Connect LED Voltage Tester (VAG 1527B) between Adapter Cable (VAG 1598/11) terminals No. 14 and 16. Turn ignition on. Ensure LED illuminates and fresh air blower operates. If conditions are not as specified, check for open circuit in wiring between fresh air blower control module and A/C-heater control panel. Ensure fresh air blower operates freely. Repair or replace as necessary.
