Airbag system, On Board

Diagnostic (OBD)
Functional description
The Airbag Control Module -J234- is located
behind the console on the tunnel. It is equipped
with DTC memory. The On Board Diagnostic
(OBD) Data Link Connector (DLC) is located
under the dash on the drivers side.
The control module detects Diagnostic Trouble

Codes (DTC) in the airbag system and stores
them in a permanent memory.
DTCs which can be attributed to a temporary

open circuit in the wiring or a loose terminal will
also be stored. These DTCs will be displayed as
sporadic DTCs "SP."
After the ignition is switched on, the Airbag

Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) -K75- comes
on for about 4 seconds and then goes out again,
if the lamp then flashes for a further 15 seconds
this signals that the front passenger airbag, is
disabled.
If the Airbag Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) -

K75- does not go out again after about 4
seconds, then the voltage supply to the Airbag
Control Module -J234- is inoperative. Check
DTC memory Page 01-10 .
A DTC is present if the Airbag Malfunction

Indicator Lamp (MIL) -K75- lights up again.
Check DTC memory Page 01-10 .
If the Airbag Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) -

K75- flashes continuously then the Airbag
Control Module -J234- must be replaced.

Comfort system 07.97, On

Board Diagnostic (OBD)
Function
The new generation of central locking
operates on the electric motor principle as
compared to the previous pneumatic
operation.
The locking units located in the doors (door

lock) have an electric motor.
The motor locks the door and also takes

care of the "Safe" condition, i.e. after locking
at an external lock (door lock, tailgate, radio
remote control) the vehicle is protected
against theft and can no longer be unlocked
from the interior. The feedback on the
respective condition in the control module
occurs via the contact switch in the locking
unit.
All the known convenience functions can be

performed with the electric comfort system,
Front Interior Lights control, ATA with interior
monitoring (being prepared), electric
windows, mirror and the radio remote
control.
If the Airbag Control Module is triggered, a

signal is sent to the convenience control
module to unlock the doors.
The Central control module for comfort

system -J393- is located under the carpet in
front of driver's seat. It is equipped with DTC
memory. The Data Link Connector (DLC) for
On Board Diagnostics is located under the
dash on the drivers side.
01-54
The control module recognizes DTCs and

malfunctions in the central locking comfort
system (comfort system includes central
locking, anti-theft alarm, electric windows,
radio frequency remote control, mirror) and
stores them in non-volatile memory.
To commence trouble shooting, initiate On

Board Diagnostic and retrieve the stored
information with the V.A.G 1551 Scan Tool.
System tester V.A.G 1552 may also be

used.
The function "Guided Troubleshooting" of

the VAS 5051 should be used in diagnostic
capable systems. Using this system will
check the fuses via wiring and connections
to the circuit.
The malfunction information displayed is

used to refer to a DTC table with notes on
the possible causes for directed repair
measures.
Malfunctions which can be attributed to a

temporary open circuit in the wiring or a
loose terminal will also be stored. These
malfunctions will be displayed as sporadic
DTCs "SP."
01-55
Only statistical DTCs are considered:
Central locking inoperative
Mirror positioning motor inoperative
Electric window positioning motor

inoperative
CAN communication inoperative
Note:
Before changing a component erase DTC

memory, perform functional checks and
check DTC memory again.
01-56
Anti-theft alarm system, determining

possible sources for activation
The breakdown of the display content
illustrated on Page 01-149 for display
group number 15 gives information as to
which component triggered the alarm
system last, and can therefore help
troubleshooting and repair.
This "DTC Memory" cannot be erased.

01-57
System active indicator

The optical central locking system active
indicator is via an additional LED in the upper
part of the driver's door inner trim. The LED
flashes for a period of time and then goes out.
When the LED is activated it will differentiate

between the following functions:
Central locking using SAFE system (lock once)

LED activation then 50ms (milliseconds) on and
950ms (milliseconds) off, when the safe
condition is obtained
Central locking not using SAFE system (lock

twice) LED goes out
The anti-theft alarm system (ATA) is not always

displayed.

Notes:
The DTC table is listed according to the 5 digit code on the left.
Explanation of the DTCs (e.g. "open circuit/short circuit to Ground"):
Before replacing components indicated as being inoperative, check the wiring and
connectors to these components as well as the Ground connections using wiring
diagram. This is particularly relevant if DTCs are output as "occurring
sporadically" (SP).
The DTCs displayed can be localized using the test table.
The DTC "01330 Convenience central control module; no communication" can

appear "sporadically." This has no influence on the function of the comfort system
and is therefore of no consequence. Erase DTC memory.
The malfunction "No communication" can also appear with the door control modules.
This has no influence on the function of the comfort system and is therefore of no
consequence. Erase DTC memory.

Diagnostic (OBD)
Function
The new generation of central locking
operates on the electric motor principle as
compared to the previous pneumatic
operation.
The locking units located in the doors (door

lock) have an electric motor.
The motor locks the door and also takes

care of the "Safe" condition, i.e. after locking
at an external lock (door lock, tailgate, radio
remote control) the vehicle is protected
against theft and can no longer be unlocked
from the interior. The feedback on the
respective condition in control module
occurs via the contact switch in the locking
unit.
All the known convenience functions can be

performed with the electric comfort system,
Front Interior Lights control, ATA with interior
monitoring (see description of system on
Page 01-160 ), electric windows, mirror and
the radio remote control.
If the Airbag Control Module is triggered, a

signal is sent to the convenience control
module to unlock the doors.
01-157
The Central control module for comfort

system -J393- is located under the carpet in
front of driver's seat. It is equipped with DTC
memory. The Data Link Connector (DLC) for
On Board Diagnostics is located under the
dash on the drivers side.
The control module recognizes malfunctions

in the central locking comfort system
(comfort system includes central locking,
anti-theft alarm, electric windows, radio
frequency remote control, mirror) and stores
them in a non-volatile memory.

Interior monitoring system,

description
The interior monitoring system is an integral
part of the anti-theft alarm system. The
systems consists of two sensors into which
the reading lights are integrated. Setting the
operating mode of the reading lights is
performed on each of the sensors
separately.
The interior sensors work on the ultrasonic

wave principle. The alarm of the anti-theft
alarm system will be triggered if movement
is detected in the interior when the system is
active.
The interior sensors can be switched off via

a switch in the B-pillar/door sill and via the
adaptation (function 10, channel number
05). To do this the ignition key must be
withdrawn from the ignition switch, then
operate switch and lock the vehicle.
The sensors will be switched on again the

next time the vehicle is unlocked.
A waiting time of at least 30 seconds must

be observed before commencing tests when
the vehicle is locked.
01-161
System active indicator

The optical central locking system active
indicator is via an additional LED in the upper
part of the driver's door inner trim. The LED
flashes for a period of time and then goes out.
When the LED is activated it will differentiate

between the following functions:
Central locking using SAFE system (lock once)

LED activation then 50ms on and 950ms off,
when the safe condition is obtained
Central locking not using SAFE system (lock

twice) LED goes out.

Adaptation: matching ignition keys to

radio frequency remote control
Notes:
If new or additional ignition keys are required

they must be matched to the immobilizer and
comfort system control electronics.
The matching procedure must always be

carried out for all the ignition keys, including the
existing ones.
The number of keys already matched will be

displayed when the adaptation (matching)
function is selected.
With the introduction of this generation of

comfort system it is possible to program
additional functions. The functions and the
programming are described from Page 01-
271 .
The matching can be interrupted with the -C-

button of the V.A.G 1551.
WARNING!
The V.A.G 1551 dealership number

(Dealership code) will be stored in
immobilizer control module when matching
ignition keys.

adjustment, On Board
Diagnostic (OBD)
Seat adjustment, function
The 8-way seat is equipped with a
seat and mirror memory function.
With this system individual seat and

mirror adjustments can be stored in
the memory. Each of the memory
buttons (-1-, -2-, and -3-) can be
used to store the individual settings
for one person.
The seat and mirrors will move

automatically into the required
position by pressing the appropriate
button when there is a change of
driver.
In the driver's seat adjustment, the

position of the exterior mirrors (left
and right) when driving forward and
the position of the right exterior
mirror for reversing can be stored
and recalled for each memory button
(-1-, -2-, and -3-)
The adjustments stored on a

memory button can also be called up
using the button for the radio
The memory system can be turned

off at any time using the red switch -
4- (MEM OFF). The seat and the
exterior mirrors can then only be set
manually with switches -5- and -6-.

function
It is an independent system and has the On
Board Diagnostic (OBD) address word 36
"Seat adjustment driver's side."
The seat adjustment control module -J136-

is located under the driver's seat and is
connected to the comfort system via the
CAN-bus.
It is equipped with DTC memory. The Data

Link Connector (DLC) for the On Board
Diagnostic (OBD) is located under the dash
on the drivers side. The control module
detects malfunctions in the system and
stores them in a permanent memory.

measures. Malfunctions which can be
attributed to a temporary open circuit in the
wiring or a loose terminal will also be stored.
These malfunctions will be displayed as
sporadic DTCs "SP."
The individual operating functions are

described in the following description.
01-298
Memory system, initializing
Notes:
All data stored for the seat and mirror settings

will be lost when the vehicle battery is
disconnected.
This data will be retained in future control

modules even after the battery has been
disconnected.
Each new setting stored on the same button will

erase the previous data.
It is not possible to store settings on the

memory buttons if the red switch is switched-off
(switch protrudes).
The battery voltage must not be below 10.5 V.

Otherwise the system detects low voltage and
will store a malfunction in the DTC memory.
The following test steps must be performed for

the initialization:
- Open driver's door.
- Then move the seat backrest forward as far as

stop.
This position will be recorded for reference when

the stop limit switch-off occurs.
01-299
Seat and mirror settings for

normal driving, storing
- Set the seat.
- Set both exterior mirrors.
- Now press one of the memory

buttons (1-3) and hold it
depressed for about 3 seconds
until an acoustic signal confirms
that the settings are stored in the
memory.
The settings are now stored on the

selected memory button.
The stored settings can be recalled

via the memory buttons (1-3) as well
as via the radio frequency remote
control.
Allocating a seat adjustment to a

radio frequency remote control keyis
described at the end.
Notes:
When the vehicle battery is
disconnected all the data stored
for the seat and mirror settings
are lost.
For future versions of the control
module this data will be retained
even when the battery is
disconnected.
Each time settings are stored on
a button the previous data will be
erased.

remote control.
Allocating a seat adjustment to a radio frequ

remote control keyis described at the end.
01-301
Notes:
When the vehicle battery is disconnected all the

data stored for the seat and mirror settings are
lost.
For future versions of the control module this

data will be retained even when the battery is
disconnected.
Each time settings are stored on a button the

previous data will be erased.
As soon as reverse gear is engaged the right

exterior mirror moves into the currently stored
position or into the previous set position. This
procedure will be interrupted if the mirror is
manually adjusted to a new position.
As soon as the reverse gear is disengaged the

right exterior mirror will move back to the
position stored for normal driving.
Every time the seat and mirror adjustment for

normal driving is changed, the individual setting
for the right exterior mirror for reversing must
also be reset, otherwise the previously set
position is active.
01-302
Allocating radio frequency remote

control key to memory buttons
After storing the seat and mirror settings (
Page 01-299 ) there is a 10 second period where
the radio frequency remote control key can be
allocated to the appropriate memory button.
The number of the radio frequency remote

control key will be transferred from the comfort
system central control module via the CAN-bus
to the memory control module.
- Pull the radio frequency remote control key out

of the ignition lock.
- Press the open button of the radio frequency

remote control key and hold it depressed for at
least 1 second until an acoustic signal confirms
the allocation.
The settings are stored under the selected

memory button.
01-303
Notes:
If the remote control key was previously

allocated to a different memory button, the old
allocation will be erased.
If the radio frequency remote control key is

allocated to a memory button to which another
button is already allocated, the old allocation
will also in this case be erased.
The allocation of a radio frequency remote

control key to a memory button will be retained
even when new seat and mirror settings are
stored on this button.
When the vehicle battery is disconnected all

allocations for radio frequency remote control
keys to the memory buttons will be erased.
For future versions of the control module this

data will be retained even when the battery is
disconnected.
