2013 VW UP! no crank no start

[3barboost]

Hi team

Help please I have a 2013 VW Up! 1 litre 3 cylinder, with the Automated Manual Gearbox, (Think of it being similiar to a BMW SMG) this is mechanically identical to the Seat MiiGo and probably a few others within the VW / Seat / Audi family

The little thing doesnt want to crank and hence start - it has a code that instantly comes back when cleared P175F - Basic Settings not performed

When I got the car as a non runner and no history of the issue / cause etc
I performed the basic settings on the clutch actuation worked fine and would "complete successfully" however the gear actuator on the gearbox would make noises in response to the basic settings commands (select gear etc) but they would never "complete successfully" they would constantly go to "unknown" so since the ECU cant determine the cars in Neutral, the engine wont crank wont start, I then replaced the entire gear box actuator with a Brand New unit and exactly the same issue prevails.

As fault finding I have done this

1) checked all engine bay wiring and ecu at the battery tray for corrosion and/or chaffing - none found
2) checked all fuses including the one up by the obd port - no fault found
3) new battery
4) I can actuate various engine components from basic settings, ie switch engine fan on, switch evap solenoids, do throttle nody alignment, control the tachometer and speedo etc
5) stripped and cleaned the in cabin gear lever, the lights around this selector lever follow the selected gear - so no fault there
6) checked all interior wiring harness connections for tightness, corrosion and chaffing - none found
7) removed the "other" ecu from under the left front fender and inspected that without finding corrosion or chaffing
8) the engine cranks if i short the starter motor terminals
9) brake light switch works and all brake lights light up when pressed
10) physically verified movement occurs when the clutch is actuated
11) checked the gearbox for any other neutral or position sensors, only a speed sensor is fitted to it (the control units assume a position such as neutral from the actual actuator motors stepper position)
12) opened the old gearbox actuator to look for faults / shorts etc and nothing found, the new and old gearbox actuators are 100% the same, same impedance same positionally movement

The in car display shows a flashing N, regardless of in cabin selector position, the Red gear icon is lit constantly, the brake lights work

No matter what I try with the "Basic settings" I cant get it to accept or "complete successfully" so my process and method is faulty any help and assistance welcomed, before I engine swap it

The REDIRS failed is also a concern

any comments welcomed or other fault finding ideas

Thanks team

The REDIRS failed is also a concern

That just means VCDS is aware the part number exists, but can't find a label file for it. Since it's a UDS module, a label file wouldn't have much in it anyway. I'm not sure I've seen a Basic Settings procedure for this transmission. Perhaps @NEtech has something?

-Uwe-

 

[3barboost]

ok thanks for clearing up the reddirs isnt an issue

I have searched everywhere for a sniff of info on this issue and I haven't come up with anything, I have tried what seems to be logical steps in the basic settings options but they dont complete successfully, so I never get close to being able to start the car any and all help welcomed

thanks

 

[NEtech]

Yes I have some Basic Settings, later.

Have you checked all connector in engine bay and for gearbox, first visually?

Please post Controller Channel Map here.

[3barboost]

cool, thanks for that, will be at the car in the next day or so and do that, the TCU / ECU does seem to be UDS if that makes a difference ?

I have checked all connectors in engine bay for tightness, corrosion and chafing, I also replaced the gearbox actuator assembly with no change
when I checked wires for chaffing, I kept one multimeter pin to ground and checked each pin for any short to ground, the only continuity is on the actual ground wires, if you got any other tests I am happy to do so

 

[PetrolDave]

I kept one multimeter pin to ground and checked each pin for any short to ground, the only continuity is on the actual ground wires, if you got any other tests I am happy to do so

The 'short to ground' message doesn't mean only a real short to ground, it means that there is no voltage when voltage is expected so it can also be caused by a broken wire or a blown fuse.

 

[NEtech]

the TCU / ECU does seem to be UDS if that makes a difference ?

No.

By checking connectors, I also mean, check for green stuff, and check if there are any female pin, that are enlarged and/or traveled a little into connector housing.
You have access to erwin manuals, how to change the different components?
One example:

 

[3barboost]

Hi, all connectors are clean, shiny, no corrosion and no misplaced pins (all pins of similiar size are at a similiar height, bigger pins are at a different height)

I dont have access to erwin, that pic hasnt come through, from the name of the pic I take it to be the gearbox actuator unit

but the gearbox is a manual gearbox with bolted on electronic actuators that replace the normal cable shift mechanism

I do have the full workshop manual for the vehicle which provides wiring diagrams, mechanical assembly / disassembly if that helps

VX65 is the unit I replaced with a brand new one as that was the main suspect

Hi


@NEtech Here is the channel map csv output

Please have a look and let me know what else you might need from the car ?

Cheeers and thanks

Hi all

@NEtech was the channel map of any help ?

any other items / downloads etc I can do ?

any other suggestions ?

cheers

Examine gear selector system.
Maybe not installed like described in manual.
Disassemble it for examination.

Hi @NEtech

Thanks for the reply and help

As to the gear selector (on the gearbox)

The unit on the gearbox was my first suspicion and I replaced with a brand new one out the box and nothing changed
To remove the old one, I used VCDS basic settings to put the old unit in a certain position for removal, noises could be heard and after undoing 3 torx the unit itself came out easily and in the gearbox the 3 mechanical selector forks could be seen all in a row (verifying a neutral condition and an easy way to remove / re install)

I did strip and inspect the old one and found no fault in it, all the gears are intact, the electric motors (literally the same as electric window motors) move and there are no positioning sensors or neutral position sensors in this unit, it seems to all rely on "stepper motor or load/current draw based" feedback

On reinstalling the brand new unit, it slipped straight into place in the gearbox, in assembly / disassembly position, I used the VCDS basic settings for the Auto Trans, I have clicked the "initialise Gear Selector" "Go" and it runs and it "completes successfully" noises can be heard from the unit mounted on the gearbox when doing this

As to the gear selector (in cabin)

I stripped it and cleaned it, examined it for loose contacts, broken wires, spillage damage etc and found none
The red led lights around the gear lever follow the gear lever actuation, so if in N position, the N light is lit, same for R, R light is lit - this happens no matter what "control modules" are plugged in or plugged out

Other Electronic units

I did find if i unplugged the "control unit" at the battery tray the gear icon in the drivers dash display would follow the in cabin levers movement, but obviously the car wont start, I also have unplugged the other "control unit" hidden in the inner fender with no change, in other words the display remains at a flashing N

Basic Settings and other items

When I have used the basic settings option the clutch actuation part completes successfully - and I have verified the movement of the clutch position arm visually, obviously I cant adjust the clutch bite point without the engine running

When doing the gear selection basic settings (on gearbox) many of the parameters dont go to "Success" I presume this is due to me not knowing a sequence to do them in

What physical items should I replace ? - could the clutch be worn ? mileage is at 100k km
What about a physical issue in the gearbox thats preventing the electrically driven actuators from moving ?
Or is their a process required to follow to get "basic settings" to be retained / completed successfully ?
are some of the INK values too close to thresholds ?

Any and all help welcomed, even if it means redoing whats been done, I really want to see this damn thing start !


If I look at the values above this is how I read it and I am pretty sure some of this will be wrong

1) Car has clutch OPEN (as if foot is depressed) the clutch arm is pushing the clutch fork (closed seems to indicate clutch would be engaged)

2) The gear selector (in cabin) is in Neutral

3) The car thinks its in Neutral first or second, or could be in Neutral and the next logical shift would be to First and then Second or the car has no clue here ?

4) the gear box thinks its in gear ?

5) Gearbox not initialised ?

6) The gearbox has adapted ?

7) the red gearbox icon on the dash is RED and lit, there is a yellow gearbox icon alongisde it which is not lit, this is confusing as the visual display contradicts the values from the controller

8) then it thinks its status normal ?

Happy to pay for remote access into my pc when plugged into the car with vcds

Anyone ?
Any ideas at all ?

help please

latest update i have swapped between the old gear actuator and new one and back to new one in the car with no change
i followed the procedure in basic settings to remove the unit
and to install in position

Any other ideas or what else to check ?

help please before i burn this damn thing

 

[3barboost]

hi all

any other ideas on this ?

what do i need to do to make the basic settings stick ?

help please

 

[3barboost]

Hi

@NEtech

Any other ideas on this ?

What parts must I inspect / strip ?

heres a video of the actuator connected to the car and being triggered via vcds

As can be seen the ecu's appear to have control of the actuator and that routine is "centering" and the rest position is neutral, i have verified the gearbox is indeed in neutral

why wont the car start ?
is there some other component or item before the gearbox that is "flaky"

Thanks for reading

 

[iichel]

Did you already have a look at any basic settings?

Did you already have a look at any basic settings?

Hi

Thanks for reading

Yes, I have done some of the basic settings, some of them complete successfully some never complete, I can only guess that the ones that never complete are due to me simply not having the info of "what order or sequence" to perform the basic settings in as there is normally a sequence

but is "basic settings not performed" a no start code ? I can imagine i wouldn't be able to get gears, but the car should still start

some of the basic settings relate to clutch bite point, that can only be set once the engine is running and the clutch can be engaged and the ecu can compare known engine rpm to gearbox input shaft rpm and deduce the actual clutch engagement point, that cant be done if the engine wont crank, wont start and it seems that some basic settings will not complete unless water temperature is over 70deg as an example - so how can that occur / be achieved if the engine wont start ?

in the video you can see the vcds screen in basic settings and the actuator responding to the command, so some basic settings do definitely give a response

do you know which order / sequence the settings should be done or where else to look to find out why it wont crank ?

any and all ideas welcome

happy to share screenshots or videos of results, there seems to be a lack of info on these gearboxes

thanks

 

[iichel]

I have absolutely no clue where to start, to be honest. But since the gearbox itself is complaining about a missing basic setting, that's where I'd start.
Perhaps it needs to find the neutral position for the gearbox again, clutch position, etc. If these conditions are not met while starting, it makes sense that it's not starting.

More precise, I can't be, since I've never seen such a transmission up close.

 

[NEtech]

Any idea why it does not start?
Starter turning?
Is there injection pulse activity and/or ignition ?
