Work step 6: Checking heated oxygen sensor
- Engine running at 1800 - 2200 RPM
NOTE:
Use VAG1788/10 RPM adjuster to achieve increased engine speed.
| Rapid data transfer HELP Select function XX |
When indicated on display
- Press buttons "08" for the function "Read measuring value block" and press Q button to confirm input.
| Read Measuring Value Block Q Input display group number XXX |
When indicated on display
- Input "041" for "display group number 041" and press Q button to confirm input.
| Read Measuring Value Block 41 → 1 2 3 4 |
When indicated on display
- Check readiness code in display field 1 and 3:
NOTE:
Increasing engine speed accelerates the obtaining of specified values.

Important Notes to display fields 1 and 3:
- If oxygen sensors have not yet reached their operating temperature, there will be no indication in display fields 1 and 3, i.e. they will both be empty.
- After reaching operating temperature of the two oxygen sensors, a resistance of less than 2kOhm must be indicated in display fields 1 and 3.
- Do not continue test until a resistance of less than 2k Ohm is indicated in display fields 1 and 3.
