03 audi a4 1.8t ecm relay location and starting issues
Рет қаралды 379,823
7 жыл бұрынEdit: a new relay fixed the problem and the car started right up. Finally found my ecm relay location. It's 3 layers deep under the tcm, under the ecm in the ecm box just below the windshield on the drivers side.

Great video bro, very informative. I had my car recoded at after a transmission swap at a local car tech. Everything worked fine until i decided to wash the car one day and seen my drivers side footwell full of water. I freaked out when I saw the water was coming down from under the steering wheel along some cables. When I looked at mu ecu box I realized it had some screws missing and I assumed the water came from there. I ended up spending the whole day drying the footwell. The guy even left the windshield wiper screw cap in the engine bay which clogged up one of the draining holes which created a pool of water around the battery and brake booster. The day after I was so scared to start the car up but I did and it started but ran kinda rough with the rpms dropping. I plan on getting it diagnosed and I want to take the whole box apart to see what the deal is.

What lead you to believe it was the left front sensor? Did you re scan after for more bad sensors? It could be a bad or dirty sensor, or a bad abs pump. Not sure without doing diagnostics. I have an abs light on right now on my 02 all road because I was swapping ecu's with power on. I'm pretty sure I just have to reset it.

@russellp73 Question - did you do anything to try to clean up the relay socket, other than spraying with contact cleaner? I pulled my relays to find the same corroded mess. Tip to others - if you haven't already replaced them, check all the relays under here. My Audi's been in sunny Southern California for all but the first 2 years of it's life, and my relays were just as bad as this one. Knowing this area is prone to corrosion, while you're checking the relays, apply a smear of dielectric grease to all the terminals as a preventative measure

With this blown was it not starting the vehicle a lot? I've looking into picking up an a4 1.8t and a few of them are saying they have fuel pump issues. I'm now wondering how common this issue is and if it's actually this and not the fuel pump. Any thoughts?
@russellp73 5 жыл бұрын
I bought it not starting. It started once and ran shitty. Then it never started again until I found this. I'd say take some engine starting fluid with you. If it's only the fuel pump, it should start on some spray. If it never even attempts to start on spray, then the ignition is out for some reason and the relay could be one of them.

I had the electric draw problem. The electric fans run through one of those relays. I can't remember which relay but it stay closed and kept my fan running with car off and drained my battery. After I wire brushed the sockets and put in new relays, the fans turned off and the electrical draw issue was solved. Also, the SAI began working lol. I still need to replace my cover but at least one per year I open the box to make sure it isn't accumulating moister and rust.

@russellp73 7 жыл бұрын
Ash Arias well it needs power to the ecm which is the relay. It needs spark from the ecm so check the wiring at each ignition coil. I hear the wire insulation rots off. Google no start issues and read some articles. There's too much to put here. Also you need fuel. So spray it with starting fluid and crank. If it runs for a few seconds and shuts off, you know 2 things. 1 you have spark, 2 you don't have fuel. If you spray it and it won't start, you don't have spark. That's either a coil issue or the ecm doesn't have power which is the relay in this vid.

Quick question, I have an 08 Audi A4 O realize it is a little different than your vehicle in the video. My "ECM" light turned on and is having starting issues and losing power, the relay "219" in your video says its a fan relay when i research 219 relay... My question is if I purchase an ECM relay would it be in the same location? I'm guessing thats the issue because upon researching on forums it seems to be that ECM relay.

Testing for fuel and spark is where you wanna start. Also check your engine management fuses inside the car.

@russellp73 5 жыл бұрын
Hard to say. Did you just do timing, as in not disturb anything else? Is the timing right and not disturbed while doing the job. Maybe a cam sensor was not plugged in? But it should still start. I've never worked on the 3.7. Not sure where all the components are. Are there any codes stored now? Crank sensor should be plugged into the rest of the harness at the firewall. If it's undone, the engine will not start.

My cooling fan would not shut off when that relay was bad. Something in it controls the ecu and the coolonig fan. Or the ecu controls the fan and because the ecu was getting iraddic or low voltage, the fan would run. Will it start on spray start? You need, 1-spark, 2- good fuel. I stress good fuel because I've had a recent bad fuel problem and I've heard of diesel contamination from others. And 3- timing. If spray start starts it, then you have spark and no fuel. Check to see if you have spark and also see if the injectors are pulsing. Most auto parts stores rent noid lights kits.

You can also open the fuel pump relay and see if it moves when you crank the engine. Then you know it's getting signal to supply fuel. If it doesn't move, you can activate it by pressing the terminals and listening for the fuel pump to run, then you know the pump is actually running also.

2007 Audi A4 Quattro - Same terrible design. Water in the compartment. First Round killed relay that always starter to engage based on the transmission being in Park... took a long time to find the issue. (thought it was the start at first, did not waste time and money on that). So replaced the first relay. Worked fine for 4 months then ... cranked over and no start. Traced it to No power to fuel pump. The fuel pump relay was operational but still no fuel. So disassembled that compartment as far as It can be taken apart. The ground wire Rotted from the water. So after another long process fixed the connection on the Fuel pump relay. Also inspected all other wires in that area. WHAT a TERRIBLE design. Hard to get to you many Break the covers as they do not take off the windshield wipers and remove that plastic cowling. If you Audi does start one day, it could be water in the ECM BOX. Dont start with the expensive starter.

Ed Rivera. Spray it with spray start and see if it starts or tries to start. Then you know you at least have spark. If you have spark, then test for voltage at the fuel pump. There's an access panel in the trunk. If there's voltage there, it's the pump. If no voltage, then you are missing power to that system which could be the ecu, ecu relay, fuel pump relay, various fuses.

Any part number for the relay?
@russellp73 2 жыл бұрын
All I can see from the vid is a 219 on the back. I don't own the car any more. Vemo muliti purpose relay on fcp euro # 443951253AA on a quick Google search of "audi 219 relay". It's not the OE #, but it's a lead.

Will this cause the injectors not to pulse?
@russellp73 5 жыл бұрын
Not sure. It is a good possibility. Try starting spray first. If the ignition system is working, then the injectors should too. Unless you have a bad cam or crank sensor. If you have a scanner or tach, see if you get rpms when you crank.

@russellp73 5 жыл бұрын
Changed both what? Did you get it started? You'll have to use alot of spray to get through all the turbo piping. Have an assistant pulse spray while you're cranking. If the ignition system is working properly, it will start. If it starts, then you have a fuel issue.

If you can jump it with another battery, but it won't start on its own, then it's not the starter. The starter starts the car. The battery seems weak and with an additional battery and cables, it starts. Sounds like a battery unless you have a bad alternator. Is the battery light on when it's running? Do you have a voltmeter on the dash? What does it read? Running voltage should be at minimum 13.5 volts.

tarks dazz check all your fuses especially #7 for the abs. It feeds other fuses. Also spray some starting fluid in it and see if it will run for a second. If it does run then the ecu is doing what it's supposed to and the problem is in the fuel system. Checking for voltage at the fuel pump will confirm a bad fuel pump.
