Hello,
I have a 1Z TDI engine from a 1993 Audi 80 in my T2. This wiring harness doesn't yet have the wiring integrated for the GRA function.
'Does anyone perhaps have the complete PIN configuration for the control unit for this function? The Audi wiring diagram doesn't provide any information on this.'
Control unit No. 0 281 001 185.
Greetings, Andi.

Hi Andi, it seems the control unit is not designed for GRA (presumably referring to a specific system or function).
Instead, a dedicated control unit with a vacuum pump is used.

Hi.
I highly doubt you have a 1Z in your T2  .
It will be a Type 2 T3 - but I don't call my Golf a Type 1, even though it is  .
The number you mentioned doesn't fit the VAG parts numbering system.
I would have expected something like "028 906 021 AF"...
Is that a Bosch part number?
For these STGs, I can provide you with the GRA plan.

Doch, die Steuergerätenummer stimmt. Hab' ich in meinem 80er TDI 1/93 ebenfalls. Aber auch mein freundlicher meinte auf Nachfrage, dass bei diesem Modell nix mit GRA geht. Too bad.
Regards,
Hermann.

Funny situation.
If you write it in the VAG format, it would be 028 100 118 5, which would indicate a motor part (the second block starts with 1).
Bei mir (und allen anderen) ist es ein Elektrik Teil (2. Block number 9, front.
Well, in that case, I'm afraid I can't comment on that.
Does it also have a 68-pin connector?

I can confirm this 'urban legend': it's not so easy to retrofit a GRA (Gas Return System) to the early 1Z engines, and also to the early TDI engines in the T4 (MKB ???). My local mechanic was even surprised that I had retrofitted a GRA to my '94 1Z. He was absolutely certain that it wouldn't be possible...
@dieselmartin
I hadn't really noticed the numbers before. Do you have a link, or can you explain how to decipher VAG part numbers? I find that very interesting...

@ Doc
Go to VW and take a look at the Edgar  .
1H0 906 021 AF (fictitious part number)
1H0 == Golf 3
9xx == Electricity
021 == Arbitrary, the part itself.
AF == Addendum, used when there are different versions.
To the second block.
1 - motor
2 - Transmission and exhaust.
3 - Front axle?
4 - Rear axle?
5 -
6 -
7 - Lever mechanism, pedal.
8 - Construction (almost everything else)
9 - Electricity
That was just off the top of my head, and I'm not entirely sure about it anymore.

3.... Transmission.
4. Front axle.
5. Rear axle.
