16706/P0322/000802 - Engine Speed Sensor (G28): No Signal

Possible Symptoms
*
*
*
*

Engine shuts off

Engine doesn't start
Speedometer inoperative
Glow Plug Indicator Lamp (K29) flashes

Possible Causes
* Engine Speed Sensor (G28) loose
* Engine Speed Sensor (G28) faulty
Possible Solutions
* Check Engine Speed Sensor (G28)
Special Notes
* The Engine Speed Sensor (G28) is also used as a reference sensor for the crankshaft position.
From what I found online it seemed like that sensor had gone bad so I ran to the stealership to buy that
sensor. I installed the new sensor and the car started and then fell straight on its face. It will start up but
if you give it any gas it will cut off. I scanned it again and got this code:
16705 - Engine Sped Sensor (G28): Implausible Signal P0321 - 35 - - - Intermittent
16705/P0321/000801 - Engine Speed Sensor (G28): Implausible Signal
Possible Symptoms
Engine shuts off
Engine doesn't start
Speedometer inoperative
Glow Plug Indicator Lamp (K29) flashes
Possible Causes
Engine Speed Sensor (G28) loose
Engine Speed Sensor (G28) faulty
Possible Solutions
Check Engine Speed Sensor (G28)
Special Notes
The Engine Speed Sensor (G28) is also used as a reference sensor for the crankshaft position and
correlates with the Camshaft Position Sensor Bank 1 (G40) and Camshaft Position Sensor Bank 2
(G163).
When found in a VW Golf/Jetta (1J/9M) or Audi A3 (8L) with 1.9l TDI-PD (AXR), check TPI 2007067
which explains issues with electro magnetic interference. A modification to the wiring will fix this
problem, extensive details can be found in the named TPI. Even though this TPI was originally released
for VW Golf/Jetta (1J/9M), a customer of ours came across the same issue on an Audi A3 (8L).
When found in a 2004 VW Golf, Jetta, or New Beetle with 1.9l TDI-PD (BEW), check for TSB number 9705-03 or 97-05-04 calling for a flash update to the ECU and a secondary ground installation. This applies
if ECU software version is below 6328; current software version should be 7000 or higher.
And well this is where I am as not, Stuck and have no idea whats wrong. If someone could help me out I
really need to get this car running as its my daily. Mods go as followed:
K04
3" TBE(no cat,no muffler)
eurojet FMIC
apr 93 software
Not installed yet bc i dont have the ko4 software yet which I was planning to get next week.
225TT injectors
4bar FPR

Possible Solutions
* Check Wiring for Open Circuit or Short to Ground
* Check Valve for Intake Manifold Flap (N239) > Output Test
So I would check the to the intake manifold flat and also do an output test using vag-com..
