2. Disconnect the A6 ECM connector.
3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard resistance (Check for open)

   Tester Connection	Specified Condition
   VPA (A26-6) - VPA (A6-33)	Below 1 Ω
   EPA (A26-5) - EPA (A6-34)	Below 1 Ω
   VCPA (A26-4) - VCPA (A6-35)	Below 1 Ω
   VPA2 (A26-3) - VPA2 (A6-32)	Below 1 Ω
   EPA2 (A26-2) - EPA2 (A6-26)	Below 1 Ω
   VCP2 (A26-1) - VCP2 (A6-27)	Below 1 Ω

   Standard resistance (Check for short)

   Tester Connection	Specified Condition
   VPA (A26-6) or VPA (A6-33) - body ground	10 kΩ or higher
   EPA (A26-5) or EPA (A6-34) - body ground	10 kΩ or higher
   VCPA (A26-4) or VCPA (A6-35) - body ground	10 kΩ or higher
   VPA2 (A26-3) or VPA2 (A6-32) - body ground	10 kΩ or higher
   EPA2 (A26-2) or EPA2 (A6-26) - body ground	10 kΩ or higher
   VCP2 (A26-1) or VCP2 (A6-27) - body ground	10 kΩ or higher

4. Reconnect the APP sensor connector.
5. Reconnect the ECM connector.

NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
