Ok, all fellow Vanagon sufferers!
There still is no fuel at my injectors. I did all the resistance tests
across the terminals at the ECU connectors, all checks out fine, for the
injectors. Sort of: Bentley says 16.5Ohms, I get 18 Ohms. Rewired all my
grounds, put new connectors on the injectors, needed it anyway.
But there is no voltage at the injectors when I crank the engine. Now I did
the Hall unit checks as per Bentley, minimal as they are: Terminal 1 and 7
result in a voltage reading that is below spec (spec = battery voltage or
slightly less, checked mine, and it's 12.47 V). I get 10.48 V. The only
other test as per Bentley or Haynes is to ground the middle terminal on the
connector to Hall unit, then turn ignition on and check voltage between
terminal 1 at ECU connector and terminal 15 at ignition coil. Checks out
according to spec (1.5 V).
My guess is that my Hall sender is toast, is there any other tests for
checking that. Do I need a whole new distributor if I wanna replace it??What
gives.
Again: fuel pressure ok, relays ok, get ignition spark
Muchas Gracias
Matt
