To all you guys that responded to my post(and there was a
lot)THANKS! It's still not fixed.Got a call from the place
I sent the ECU to and they said everything is fine.They are
sending it back and I quess it's back to square one.Will
keep you all posted. Again thanks for all the information.

____________________ ORIGINAL MESSAGE: _____________________

Towed this vehicle to my shop with no start,quit on the
road. Check for spark--no spark--no fuel pump operation--no
injector pulse. Following manual--checked for power at hall
effect device on blk/red wire--no power,according to my
manual the hall effect gets it's power directly from
ecu.Checked for 5 volt reference at tps and cts--no
reference. I have very limited experience on V.W.'s as
there are not very many of them in my area,so, I also have
limited information. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks
in advance!!!!!!!

___________________ TEST AND REPAIR DATA ___________________

Checked for codes and none were found.

TESTING AND RESULTS

Hall effect voltage - No voltage to hall effect from ecu
Power feed to ecu - Normal-battery voltage
Grounds - Ground to ecu--good
