2004 VW Beetle no crank/start
The old starter tested bad on the bench. Now it won't crank. He removed an after market alarm and replaced the
neutral relay controlled by the AT because when it was bridged out the vehicle would start and run.
I scanned it and found code 00293 "Malfunction, trans range switch" and did some research and found this:
"You need to observe TCM measuring blocks group 001.
Shift through the gear positions from P to 1.
Display field should show the changes.
Display field 4 is eight binary positions. Pay attention to 5-8.
5 = 1 when R, N, D 3, 2
5 = 0 when P, 1
6 = 1 when P, R, 2, 1
6 = 0 when N, D, 3
If not, then you need to adjust the selector cable.
7 = 1 when P, R, N, D
7 = 0 when 3, 2, 1
8 = 1 when P, R, N
8 = 0 when D, 3, 2, 1"
I am getting:
P 0110
R 1110
N 1010
D 1010 ? neutral and drive both 1010.
3 1000
2 1100
1 0100
In live data on channel 001 the selector lever always shows as "D" even though the numbers change as I move through the range
I wonder about getting the same numbers for N and D but then P shows as being different so you would think it would still start in P?
Based on the site I found P should be 0111 and N should be 1011 and I'm not seeing either. If it was a matter of cable adjustment then surely I
would at least see the right numbers for N at some stage as I pass through that area.
When I hold in crank position I get 10000110.
I imagine the AT position switch is faulty but not 100% sure

And constant batt voltage on pin4 in start position(only) in the original post you mentioned when you jumped the PNP relay the vehicle started. Might have voltage drop somewhere on the supply side of the PNP relay or the ground from the grey black wire.
