DTC 2322
DTC 2322 [California (Digifant I)]1. With the ignition "OFF", disconnect the Digifant I control unit harness connector. The Digifant I control unit is located beneath the drip tray, at the left rear (drivers side) of the engine compartment. For these tests it may be easier to remove the control unit from its mount, this will allow better access to the harness connector pins.
Digifant I 38 Pin Control Unit Connector:
2. Connect a suitable volt/ohm meter between terminal 28 and 30 of the Digifant I control unit harness connector. Set the volt/ohm meter to ohms.
Special Tools:
CAUTION: Avoid damaging the delicate connectors within the control unit harness connector. A simple set of test leads can be fabricated using flat connectors (part # VW N 17 457 2) or equivalent, and a pair of alligator clips.
^ Refer to the temperature sensor graph for the correct measurement.
3. If the correct measurement is obtained the problem is intermittent (check the harness and connectors for poor connections). If the correct measurement is not obtained, disconnect the air flow sensor connector and check for continuity between terminal:
Air Flow Sensor:
a. 30 of the Digifant I control unit harness connector and terminal 1 of the air flow sensor harness connector.
b. 28 of the Digifant I control unit harness connector and terminal 4 of the air flow sensor harness connector.
^ The correct measurement should be less than 1 ohm (continuity).
If the correct measurements are not obtained, repair or replace the harness as necessary. If the correct measurements are obtained continue with test step 4.
4. Connect a volt/ohm meter between terminal 1 and 4 of the air flow sensor plug and measure the resistance.
^ Refer to the intake air temperature sensor graph for the appropriate measurement.
NOTE: It will be necessary to take an accurate measurement of the ambient air temperature.
If the measurement is incorrect the intake air temperature sensor is defective. The air flow sensor (complete unit) must be replaced.
