** When control module 1C0-909-605-F-004 (coded to 12340) is replaced with 1C0-909-605-F-01E the original Crash Sensors are not compatible. The new module will refuse coding if DTCs 01221, 01222, 01738, or 1739 are stored. This is also noted here: [http://www.ross-tech.com/vag-com/cars/airbag-coding.html    Airbag Coding]

Special Notes

  • The US Market (9M) Jetta has a common Airbag Control Module replacement conflict with the existing Crash Sensors. This is mentioned in TSB # 69-08-04 with the following example:
    • When control module 1C0-909-605-F-004 (coded to 12340) is replaced with 1C0-909-605-F-01E the original Crash Sensors are not compatible. The new module will refuse coding if DTCs 01221, 01222, 01738, or 1739 are stored. This is also noted here: Airbag Coding

The Crash Sensors can be checked by using the control module identification and the measuring blocks.

Address 15: Airbags
   Controller: 1T0 909 605 
   Component: 05 AIRBAG VW62 0506 2112
   Coding: 0012341

The 0506 in this example stands for the required Crash Sensor ID, the first 2 digits (05) apply for the front crash sensors, while the second 2 digits (06) apply for the rear crash sensors. The ID of the currently installed Crash Sensors can be determined by checking Measuring Value Block (MVB) 009.
