VW Touareg (7P) Steering Wheel 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.

Basic Setting
Steering Angle Sensor (G85) Calibration
[Select]
[16 - Steering Wheel]
Turn steering wheel at least 30 ° left or right and back straight ahead (Tolerance: ±5.0 °).
[Security Access - 16]
Enter 40168
[Do It!]
[Basic Settings - 04]

[Done, Go Back]
[Meas. Blocks - 08]
Group 033 Field 3 (Steering Angle Sensor -G85-)
Specification: 0.0 °
Tolerance (when straight): ±1.5 °
[Done, Go Back]
Notes:
- To confirm the status of the G85 calibration see MVB group 032.
- If the basic setting group results in an error message verify the live G85 reading is ±1.5 °. Readings such as 359° would indicate the slip ring is mechanically out one full turn.
- The slip ring is the 16-Steering Wheel Electronics module. If the vehicle deployed Airbag(s) and the slip ring was replaced make sure the module is long coded using VCDS.
