Adaptation after replacing Engine Control Module (ECM)

Note. The Engine Control Module (ECM) is adapted to the instrument cluster (with integrated anti-theft immobilizer). When the Engine Control Module (ECM) is replaced, the new ECM must be re-adapted to the immobilizer. If no authorized ignition key is available, but the 7-digit PIN is available, new ignition keys must be manufactured and adapted to the "Adaptation after replacing instrument cluster". Adaptation can be interrupted using the "C" button.

  1. Initiate On Board Diagnostic (OBD) of immobilizer. See «IMMOBILIZER ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD), INITIATING»(/audi/s6/c5-1999-2004/remont/cruise-control-systems/#on-board-diagnostic-obd-2001-and-up) .

CONTROL MODULE IDENTIFICATION - ANTI-THEFT IMMOBILIZER

Note. If a used Engine Control Module (ECM) is being installed, it must first be switched free via a login procedure. See LOGIN PROCEDURE, ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM) . The 7-digit PIN must be determined via the 14-digit identification number of the used Engine Control Module (ECM). Continue as follows after successful login procedure

  1. Enter adaptation value Input value: 0 to 65535
  1. Enter previously determined 7-digit PIN (of instrument cluster) in button field -2-.
  2. Press -Q- button to confirm input.

Note. If the 7-digit PIN is entered incorrectly three times, tester display will indicate "locked 10". This locking time can also be indicated in measuring value block 024 (display field 1). Adaptation is now locked for 10 minutes. This time is doubled after every third consecutive incorrect attempt, up to a maximum of 255 minutes.

  1. Wait until the next indication appears on display.

Note. If a malfunction occurs during adaptation, the following DTCs can be displayed: "Interference": CAN-bus not available or engine speed recognized (adaptation only with the engine standing still) "Adaptation not OK": Instrument cluster cannot give out data (17-digit VIN, 14-digit identification number), since the control module is still new (factory condition) or the data is faulty. "System not OK": Instrument cluster does not give out data, since it was previously used with a control module (Engine Control Module) with another performance class (tuning-protection). "Key not OK": Data cannot be given out or accepted, because no key or no matching key is available.

If no malfunction is present, this display appears
