Clear the DTCS. For that module then redo the measuring block testes then an output test and see if the faults still there.

My thought would still be with the switch - dealer says they sells more switches than rain sensors!

Is there a way to actually test the intake runner control using vagcom?

Yes, you can do the output test.

open vcds>engine>output test 03



then select Intake manifold flap from the drop down list



While the test is running the actuator arm should move to fully open and close the flaps
Without traction power is nothing!
