I checked the transmission out with Ross-Tech VAG tool and it appears
that one solenoid is defective.
Does anyone have a diagram showing the pinout and purpose of each pin (
contact) in the valve body cable socket.?
I would like to check the continuity of the solenoids but without the
pin ( contact) description for the cable it is rather hard .
My local VW dealership wants $1200.00 for a replacement unit.
Any help would be most appreciated.

Re: 1991 PASSAT auto transmission valve body faulty - HELP Requested
Did you at least clean up the contacts at the terminal plug for the valve body?
Mine were slightly corroded and my 91 Passat auto trans went in limp mode
during a heavy rain.
Now it seems to be fine after cleaning and treating with some di-electric
grease.
Let me know if you still need the diagram and I can look in the Bentley CD.
BTW mine developed HAD more faults than that and it still may have a
temperature sensor fault. :-(

I think one person found wiring problems too.
Did you check wiring to the valve body?

the valve body itself. The electrical harness was the problem.
Send a note if you would like the electrical details on the solenoids
in the transmission to determine if your problem is the electrical
harness as well.
