It mean you not getting 12V at it .But as suggested above ECU replacement was FIX for this problem.Thanks...I appreciate your response. What does missing 12V mean? How do I fix it.
Thanks Brian...About 15 years ago you helped me with this car...I sold it 10 years ago...Last year I found it behind an old church in North St. Louis in bad shape. I've been restoring it for the past 12 months. Where's the best place to get a newer ECU?Amazing a '96 Passat is still out there with the original OBD-D that has never been upgraded. I agree with Steve, I'd find the newer ECU and ditch all that nonsense.
If you can't find one here then Community Auto recycling in Erie PA has one for $35, it's the FA ECU, 1-814-833-8518 / 1-877-833-8518 , Stock # ST7507. 1997 Passat.Thanks Brian...About 15 years ago you helped me with this car...I sold it 10 years ago...Last year I found it behind an old church in North St. Louis in bad shape.
