Battery Replacement
A large majority of modern VW/Audi/Seat/Skoda vehicles require the configuration of replacement batteries. The actual diagnostic steps vary depending on the actual vehicle configuration.
Prerequisites:
- New VW/Audi Battery Installed
- Aftermarket batteries may NOT have a valid Part Number, Vendor code or Serial number. Ross-Tech cannot offer assistance if the necessary information is missing.
- Key On, Engine OFF
