If one or both displays do not change:
- Disconnect 4-pin connector from brake light switch and brake pedal switch.
- Measure resistance between terminals 1 + 4 of switch.
- Specification: Brake pedal not depressed: ∞ Ω;~Brake pedal depressed: max. 1.5 Ω
- Measure resistance between terminals 2 + 3 of switch.
- Specification: Brake pedal not depressed: max. 1.5 Ω; Brake pedal depressed: ∞ Ω
If specifications are not obtained:
- Replace Brake Light Switch F and Brake Pedal Switch F47.
- After replacing the switch, press the pedal 3 times to ensure the correct adjustment of the switch.
- Verify that the switch is working properly → Brake light switch and brake pedal switch, checking .

- Connect test box V.A.G 1598/22 (through my 1999) or test box V.A.G 1598/31 (from my 2000) to control module wiring harness.
- Check wiring between test box and 4 pin connector for open circuit using wiring diagram:
| Test box socket no. | ||
| Terminal | Through MY 1999 | From MY 2000 |
| 2 | 2 | 2 |
| 2 | 28 | 1 |

| 4 | 20 | 32 |
- Wire resistance: Max. 1.5 Ω
- Check wires for short to one another, to vehicle ground and to battery positive (B+).
- Specification: ∞ Ω
If wiring and resistance measurement values are OK:
- Replace engine control module → Diesel Direct Fuel Injection (DFI) Engine Control Module (ECM) J248 , replacing .
