Checking for blockage and leaks
The EVAP canister purge regulator valve is closed when power is off.
- Remove EVAP canister purge regulator valve -N80-.
- Connect removed valve to harness connector.
- Start output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) and select -N80-. Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) (Function 03)
- Blow into long connection during output DTM, and check whether valve opens and closes properly. Replace valve if necessary.

If valve -N80- does not open and close as specified:
- Replace -N80-.

If valve -N80- is OK:
- Check all hose connections between tank and valve for blockage or leaks.

EVAP canister purge regulator valve -N80- electrical test
- Disconnect harness connector from EVAP canister purge regulator valve.







- Connect multimeter US1119 (Fluke 83 or equivalent) and check resistance at across valve terminals.
Specified value: 22-30 Ohms

If resistance is NOT OK:
- Replace EVAP canister purge regulator valve

Checking EVAP canister purge regulator valve voltage supply

Test conditions
- Fuse for EVAP canister purge regulator valve OK
- Disconnect harness connector from EVAP canister purge regulator valve.







- Connect VAG1527B LED voltage tester between connector terminal 1 (B+) and engine Ground.
- Operate starter motor.
Specified value: LED must light up

If LED test light does not light:
- Check wiring for open circuit between connector terminal 1 and fuse, according to wiring diagram; repair if necessary.
Specified value: 1.0 Ohm max.

If wiring is OK:
- Check fuel pump relay. Testing and Inspection

Checking signal to EVAP canister purge regulator valve







- Connect VAG1527B LED voltage tester between connector terminals 1 (B+) and 2.
- Start output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) for EVAP canister purge regulator valve - N80-. Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) (Function 03)
LED must blink

If LED test light does not blink, or stays on:
- Connect VAG1598/22 test box to ECM harness connector. Connecting VAG 1598/22 Test Box

If LED test light does not blink:







- Check wiring between connector terminal 2 and Motronic ECM terminal 15 for open circuit or short circuit to B+.

If LED test light stays on:
- Check wiring between connector terminal 2 and Motronic ECM terminal 15 for short circuit to Ground.

If wiring is OK:
- Replace Motronic ECM -J220-.
- Carry out adaptation of throttle valve control module to ECM.
- Check readiness code. If Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory has been erased, or ECM was disconnected, generate new readiness code. Readiness Code Reading Readiness Code, Generating
