88-Pin Transmission Control Module (1996)
NOTE:
TCM harness connector can be removed after ignition switch has been turned to OFF position, for 30 seconds. By removing TCM connector, battery voltage is disconnected and DTC memory is erased.
Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Remove TCM. Disconnect TCM harness connector. Connect VAG 1598/20 test box to TCM harness connector.
Carry out only appropriate test steps for components or wiring connections to be tested. See TRANSMISSION CONTROL TESTS (1996)
table. Given specified values are valid for an ambient temperature of 32-104°F (0-40°C). If values deviate from specified values, determine malfunction per wiring diagram. See WIRING DIAGRAMS
. If measured values deviate slightly from specified values, clean terminals and connections of test unit and adapters, repeat test. Before replacing respective component, check wires and connections, repeat resistance checks, especially on components with a specified values of less than 10,000 ohms.
