|
| If there are customer complaints concerning the auxiliary
heater operation in vehicles with a high-voltage system and
problems with the fuel supply of the auxiliary heater are the
cause, detach the cover for the flange -C-
from vehicle prior to removing the fuel tank
→ Rep. gr.20, and check connector
-A- as well as fuel line
-B- leading to metering pump -V54-
for correct installation and damage. |
|
|
|
| On vehicles with high-voltage system, the metering pump
-V54--1- cannot be accessed if the
fuel tank is installed
→ Rep. gr.20 (Assembly overview - fuel delivery
unit/fuel gauge sender). Therefore, bleed fuel line
-2- (and corresponding riser tube)
leading to metering pump -V54--1-
as necessary after the fuel tank has been installed (e.g. upon
repair work on the fuel delivery unit, when the fuel line
-2- leading to -V54--1-
has been emptied)
→ Chapter. |
| – |
Remove fuel tank
→ Rep. gr.20. |
|
|
|
| Install metering pump -V54--1-
with correct orientation. The fuel line leading to auxiliary
heater -3- must be connected to the
connection on the same side where the connector
-4- is located. The fuel line
-2- leads to the fuel tank via the
fuel delivery unit (this illustration shows the configuration
for vehicles with high-voltage system). |
|
|
|
| Install metering pump -V54--6-
with correct orientation. The fuel line leading to auxiliary
heater must be connected to the connection on the same side
where the connector -2- is located
(this illustration shows the configuration for vehicles with
high-voltage system). |

|
|
| – |
Renew bracket if retaining tabs -1-
and -5- are damaged or broken off. |
| – |
Insert metering pump -V54--6-
into bracket so that O-type clips -8-
are seated in guides -5- and
connector -2- does not make contact
with bracket. |
| – |
Engage electrical wire -3- in
guides -arrows-. |
| – |
Install bracket with metering pump -V54--6-
ensuring proper engagement of retaining tabs
-1-. |
| – |
Check that fuel lines are properly secured in retainers
-5-. |
| Before installing the fuel tank: |
|
|
|
| Make sure that electrical wires and fuel lines (e.g. fuel
lines -2- and
-4- leading to auxiliary heater) are properly routed and
that they are firmly seated in the corresponding retainers. |
| Make sure that the connector on the metering pump -V54- has
properly engaged. |
| Check connection -5- on fuel
line -4- for soiling or damage. |
Note
| If fuel lines make contact with body, they can transfer
sound. |
| – |
Check that fuel lines are correctly seated and routed; fuel
lines must not make contact with body (risk of transferring
sound). |
