Test prerequisite

- The actual value is not o.k.
- The power supply of component N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit) is OK.
Test sequence

- Switch off ignition.
- Connect socket box (126-pin) to component N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit).
- Measure direct voltage with multimeter between sockets [ F.9 ] 105 and [ F.22 ] 118 of the 126-pole socket box tester.
- Switch on ignition.
Specified value

- Voltage[4.7...5.3] V
Question

- Is the measurement value OK?


YES
The measurement value is OK.Further possible causes of fault

- Check lines from component N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit) to component B4/3 (Fuel tank pressure sensor).
- B4/3 (Fuel tank pressure sensor)
End of test

NO
The measurement value is not OK.Possible cause and remedy

- Check lines from component N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit) to component B4/3 (Fuel tank pressure sensor).
- N3/10 (ME-SFI [ME] control unit)
