Oil temperature gauge, does not work

                                           
-- Remove connector from engine oil temperature sensor -G8- -- Connect tester VW 1301 between oil temperature sensor connector and Ground (GND)-- Switch ignition ON
-- Adjust VW 1301 as follows:
  Dial setting Guage reads                    
  26 110 999 approx. 170°C (338°F) approx. 130°C (266°F) approx. 60°C (140°F)                    
                                           
  • Gauge reading must correspond to dial setting on VW 1301
Yes   No
                                           
Engine oil temperature sensor -G8- faulty         Go to next article      
-- Replace engine oil temperature sensor -G8-                      
                                           
        End                                
                                           
                               
-- Switch ignition OFF
  • Leave tester VW 1301 connected between oil temperature sensor and GND
-- Remove instrument cluster INSTRUMENT CLUSTER , but leave all connectors attached-- Set multimeter (Fluke 83 or equivalent) to measure resistance (Ω)-- Disconnect instrument cluster 4-point side panel connector-- Using connector test kit VW 1594, connect multimeter between terminal -2- of 4-point connector and GND-- Adjust tester VW 1301 to 999
  • Must be approx. 530 ohms (Ω)
Yes No, ∞ Ω (no continuity) is displayed
                               
    Go to A       -- Check wiring to oil temperature sensor for open circuit according to wiring diagram, repair as necessary  
                 
                 
                             
                      End    
                               
              A              
                               
-- Reconnect 4-point connector-- Disconnect 6-point side panel connector-- Set multimeter (Fluke 83 or equivalent) to volt range-- Using connector test kit VW 1594, connect multimeter between terminals 6 (+) and 5 (-) of connector-- Switch ignition ON
  • Must be approx. 12 V
Yes No
                               
              Printed circuit board faulty
              -- Replace printed circuit board PRINTED CIRCUIT 
                               
                      End      
-- Switch ignition OFF-- Using connector test kit VW 1594, connect multimeter (Fluke 83 or equivalent) between oil temperature gauge terminal -1- → illustration 90-866 and Ground (GND)-- Switch ignition ON
  • Must be approx. 8 V
Yes No
                               
    Go to C         Go to B    
              B                
                                 
Printed circuit (side panel) faulty  
-- Replace printed circuit board (side panel) PRINTED CIRCUIT, SIDE PANEL   
                                 
              C     End        
                                 
-- Switch ignition OFF-- Set multimeter (Fluke 83 or equivalent) to measure resistance (Ω)-- Using connector test kit VW 1594, connect multimeter between terminals -2- and -3- → illustration 90-866
  • Must be 0 ohms (Ω) (continuity)
  
Yes No, ∞ Ω (no continuity) is displayed  
                                 
Oil temperature gauge faulty   Printed circuit (side panel) faulty  
-- Replace oil temperature gauge OIL TEMPERATURE GAUGE    -- Replace printed circuit board (side panel) PRINTED CIRCUIT, SIDE PANEL
