Hi,
Problem: The Audi starts after about 10 seconds, but the oil pressure warning light comes on, even though there is oil pressure. The oil pressure sensor is working correctly, and the measurement module also indicates that everything is okay.
Furthermore, not all warning lights illuminate when the ignition is turned on, for example, the glow plug indicator. The next problem is that the tachometer shows nothing.icon_mad.gif icon_mad.gif

Okay, here's the translation:

"Now my question! Is it the starter motor or another electrical problem? I'd like to be sure before I buy a new one. I haven't done anything yet to try and find the fault."

Do you have any tips or suggestions? I've already read a bit online, and sometimes it mentions things about defective microcontrollers. icon_eek.gif icon_eek.gif

Okay, so I checked the actuator diagnostics today. Everything is okay, all indicators are working, etc.

Fault memory: 00576 - Terminal 15.
27-00 - implausible signal.

"You can clear the error, but after running the actuator diagnosis again, the error reappears?"
According to the circuit diagram, a voltage regulator is located before the operational amplifier in the power supply circuit.

What do you say? Is the KI defective or what? icon_rolleyes.gif

Hello, I've seen similar problems with my A6 and various other VAG models. In my case, it was a cold solder joint. Before buying a new one, you could check the solder points on the connector and possibly resolder them.
Take a look at tachopix.de; you might find a cheaper repair option.

Hi,

I tried resoldering everything, but without success. I then sent it to Tachopix, but they refused to offer a warranty because I had already opened it myself.
