VW Tiguan (5N) Brake Electronics

Coding

Coding for this Control Module is normally done via Software Version Management (SVM). If the old Control Module is still accessible read/copy it's Coding to the new Module. In case this is not possible please contact us directly and we will assist you with the Coding Process.

Every inquiry on this topic has to include a full Auto-Scan as well as which parts have been replaced and why, also make sure the Auto-Scan includes the complete VIN of the vehicle in question.

Special Procedures

System Function Test

See System Function Test

Tire Pressure Monitoring System Reset

This applies only to INDIRECT TPMS with rubber valve stems and no sensors in the wheels. Direct TPMS with metal valve stems and sensors can be accessed in the 65-TPMS module.

Prerequisites:

• Ignition ON

[Basic Settings - 04]
Group 042
[Go!]
Activate the Basic Setting.
[ON/OFF/Next]
[Done, Go Back]
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06]

• The Tire Pressure Monitoring Lamp (K220) should blink.
• Now check the Tire Pressure and correct it if necessary.
• Press and Hold the Tire Pressure Monitoring Button (E492) AND the ABS/ESP Button (E256) for 2 Seconds.
• A short Tone should sound after pressing/holding these buttons for 2 Seconds and the blinking should change to a permanent lit Tire Pressure Monitoring Lamp (K220).
• The Reset is now done and as soon as you let the buttons go the Tire Pressure Monitoring Lamp (K220) should go OFF.
