DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC)TABLE (FROM 06.99 & UP) 

NOTE:

z

The following table lists all malfunctions, with the corresponding 5 digit 
code numbers, that can be recognized by control module with indicator 
unit in instrument cluster insert -J285- and printed out by the VAG 1551 
Scan Tool (ST).  

z

If malfunctions do not occur regularly, these are displayed as occurring 
sporadically ("SP").  

z

DTC codes appear only on print-out.  

z

Before replacing components, check the wiring and connections to these 
components as well as ground connections, according to wiring diagram.  

z

When repair has been carried out, Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory 
must always be erased and checked again with VAG 1551 Scan Tool (ST).  

z

If there is a specific complaint and no malfunctions are recognized after 
checking Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory, carry out function 03
