A3 2013 8v CRBC engine diesel. RELAY location

Featured Replies

Just joined today and a Hello to other members !  I have the 2013 very early facelift 5 door hatch CRBC 1968 cc diesel.  I have only just aquired the car and have fitted full gates timing belt kit and new auxillary pump. together with oil filter oil and coolant change and fuel filter. However, after changing the aux pump i have the code pending P190E$07E . I have tried to locate the fuses for this pumps relay itself and any relative fuses that relate. I have no idea where the relay/fuse box is located. As my car is the first facelift crbc model diesel 8v i would not think that the relay box is in the plenum .. but maybe wrong !   if i can first start with fuses and relays its a start , as the old aux motor was burnt out with no coil windings showing to measure on my tester in ohms.Luckily the motor was not siezed but needed changeing.  The previous owner drove for some time without renewing the aux pump and ignotred the ecl lights.  The car is up on 165000 miles and needs tlc but runs smoothly and quiet . No other issues but i would like to sort this issue out and give the car the TLC it deserves.   Can anyone start me off with relay and fuses location before i go further please. location of which box and to identify the relay part number and where it lives !   New to ownership so on a steep learning curve ,but this seems to be a regular issue. Any advice very welcome ..

Yes there are a few of us. That's not to say any are available or able to help with your particular problem at the moment, so best to wait a couple of days. Patience is a virtue.

Not sorted yet but getting code :  P190/$07E    on my obd2 scanner. Anyone know this code translate ? I assume with the end digits it would be an Audi/VW dealers code . Can anyone ,or does anyone know the exact definition , as it would help in tracing the fault. Thankyou in anticipation ....

Seems to be a bad contact on the auxiliary pump plug. I bought a hella OEM replacement pump .  Does anyone know where to get the correct plug (female 3 pin ) connector from or part number ?

Thankyou steve for acknowledgement. Yes it was indeed the 3 pin miniplug to auxiliary water pump . Corroded earth connection crimp.  To help others it is the standard mini connector for the reverse parking sensors if fitted.  Easy to find on Ebay already with tails ready to splice into the existing loom !   Contact me if link required ...
