Control Module Maps

What is a Control Module Map?

Since version 505.1 VAG-COM supports "Control Module Maps", this function rapidly scans through all 255 possible measuring block groups and/or adaptation channels on any ECU and writes a "map" file. These "map" files are useful for creating new label files or taking a "snapshot" of all available data from an ECU. After creating the "map" files, you can find them in the /VAG-COM/Logs/ folder.

• *.PLA files are Adaptation Maps.
• *.PLB files are Meas. Block Maps

VAG-COM Manual: Control Module Maps

How can I help?

We are continuosly working on improving this wiki and the VAG-COM label files, therefore it's very helpful to have maps from modules which are either new, undocumented or incomplete yet. You can help us by providing such maps from your car(s). Once you have made these files, send them to us via email.

How do I find out if the control modules in my car are documented?

Start VAG-COM and perform the following procedure:

[Options]
Set the Debug Level to 1. This setting is only valid until you close VAG-COM.
[Apply]
[Auto-Scan]
Select your model.
[Start]

After the Auto-Scan is finished, you will see outputs like this:

Address 01: Engine       Labels: 06A-906-033-BGU.LBL
  Part No: 06A 906 033 CM
  Component: SIMOS71 1.6l 2VG    6395
  Coding: 0000075
  Shop #: WSC 73430

OR

Address 76: Park Assist       Labels: None
  Part No: 1Z0 919 283 B
  Component: Parkhilfe 4-Kan H04 0020
  Coding: 0001001
  Shop #: WSC 73430

Everytime when you see Labels: None, there is no Label File for this control module.

Are there special modules you want data from?

Besides data from undocumented modules, we are especially looking for maps from these models/modules:
