Special Notes
- When found in the VW Passat (3C), the Electronic Steering Column Lock can now be replaced independently from the entire steering column. It should not be necessary to replace the entire column when replacing the ESCL (J764).
- The Comfort Control Module (J393) houses the Immobilizer related Functions. Depending on the Comfort Control Module, it might be possible to reprogram it as opposed to replacing it with the ESCL replacement.
