big_chris1981 0 Posted January 4, 2007 are there any known bypasses for the box of shit, sorry tricks behind the dash? VAG COM is throwing up an inpluasable value error...... pming me might be better from a security point of view ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted January 4, 2007 Um, making it work properly usually does the trick .. ! It's keyed into the ECU, so no, there's no easy way around it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
big_chris1981 0 Posted January 4, 2007 the problem would be that we dont have a matched set of clocks, transponder, and ecu...... and now the ecu is refusing to talk to the vagcom...grrrr Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted January 4, 2007 Don't think the other things do need to match. You just need a matching key and ECU. As long as your transponder is reading the code from the key and passing it to the ECU .. ? Or at least, that's how I thought it worked .. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NormanCoal 0 Posted January 5, 2007 the key is coded to the reader, and then the ECU is matched. As long as the key and reader match, then it is possible to recode another ECU to work, as long as it is exactly the same type of ECU - bear in mind there are lots of variations over the years Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
