New to the Forum. New to VCDS. Old school Air Cooled VW Guy. Appreciate any help I can get.
Just bought a "used" Audi Q7 with 120,000km. Well maintained with records.
Has one weird history issue....previous Owner may have punctured the wiring for the cellular antenna when they pushed a Remembrance Day poppy pin into the headliner and dealer really discouraged investigating repair due to complications pulling headliner/sunroof etc apart. (as the story goes). SOS malfunction code showed up after I got it, however everything functions fine. SOS call works and no other MMI/Multimedia issues at all. It makes me a bit skeptical about the wiring being damaged...but again that's just part of the story.
I'm looking at any option to delete or program out the warning from the dash/display.
When I run the scan it shows the antenna issue on module 19

I've tried a few things to clear the warning based on similar issues Audi had on other models with the 3G/LTE and Telematics module lockups/software isues with no success. After googling for days I have found that it may be possible to disable the warning in the Telematics module 75. The problem is, I am unable to access module 75 using the HEX-V2 and VCDS. Maybe it is protected/secured or maybe there is something I am doing incorrectly.
The only thing I haven't tried is to disconnect the battery to reset the Telematics module (if that's even a good idea) or to pull the fuse for the module (which does not even seem to be in the fuse block (x 2 locations) - "Telephone" according to my Owners manual.
Looking for some help

It does not look like you have a separate 75-Telematics module.

Can we get a complete Auto-Scan for better context, please?

Here is the full scan.
Maybe I just made the assumption that it has a 75-Telematics module....
I guess I may as well ask a few questions
Is there anyway to program out that cellular antenna warning via the 19 CAN Gateway module?
Is it possible that the 75 Module is just locked up and that's why I can't communicate with it?
Is it worth disconnecting the battery to reset everything and/or is that something that going to create more issues?

Thanks

This is interesting. Most MLBevo cars have a 75-Telematics (J949) specific control module and those are known for going offline where you have to follow a TBS to get it to communicate when it malfunctions. The summary of that is remove the 75 control module, remove the internal battery, say a prayer and reconnect it hoping it will function correctly. Those cars look like this in a scan:

We have several scans like yours with that alternative CAN Gateway type and no #75 unit. I do not believe you have any control modules offline.

I'm going to do some more digging and report back if I spot a way to disable the malfunctioning antenna DTC.

This is experimental at best but please open the hood and then connect to address 19. Check Adaptation channel: [*IDE01996-SFT08107*] Installation list: specified installations - Antenna module

I think that's going to show Coded. If so, try changing it to Not coded. If it complains Error; Security Access Required try using 20103 first and repeat the attempt to change that channel.

Assuming it wasn't already set to Not Coded and you were able to make a change that might fix it? I suppose it is also possible that you will need to exit and lock the car with the remote so it can take a CAN nap before anything is conclusive.

Really appreciate the response and idea, thank you!

So when I checked the adaptation channel there was no IDE01996-SFT08107.
There was IDE01996-SFT33031 specified installations - Antenna module. It was showing Not Coded.
I did not bother trying to change it from Not Coded to Coded...the question is...should I have?

I searched the rest of the list for anything about antennas and found nothing.

The only thing that worries me about "antennas" vs "cellular antenna" is that there are probably 3 antennas..correct? (Cellular, GPS and Satellite radio)...not sure how it would know one from the other but I guess it must as it specifically has a cellular antenna DTC.

PS
I did open the hood as instructed, I never realized that the hood had to be open before this...is that supposed to be done everytime the scan tool/vcds is done or just for adaptation reasons...or?
I also have the engine running when I run the scan tool and vcds....is that correct?

Only necessary if you're making when "writing" stuff; not when reading.

Depends. Some modules, particularly engine and transmission won't allow changes when the engine is running. Personally, I prefer to use a battery charger when spending more than a couple of minutes with a scan tool.

But then again, there can be a few things here and there for which the engine really should or even must be running.

Great info and good to know. I’m new at vcds and there’s tons to learn and tons to read.
I’m struggling with understanding the logic when the cellular communication via SOS seems to work yet the antenna supposedly is throwing an open circuit code/error. Like the dealer, I have no interest in tearing the headliner out to change the harness if that’s even possible….. especially if it works. I just want the DTC to be gone.
With the 75 Telematics module there is a way you can disable the DTC, but it seems that not an option in my case.

I can’t help but be tempted to disconnect the battery just to try resetting the 19 CAN Gateway module just to see if it does anything.

Can anyone tell me what actually happens and what I’ll have to reprogram for the vehicle if I disconnect the battery?
I can see losing the radio presets, but what else? I don’t want to have to get it towed to the Dealer as that’s hours away.

The car should recover reasonably gracefully from having the battery disconnected. Should.

But if everything works, and the only issues are a spurious fault code and a warning message at start-up, why mess with it?

Uwe, thank you again for the reply/info. I should probably heed your advice and count myself lucky that the issue is very minor. If or when I get it resolved I’ll share….hopefully to help anyone else that might run across the same issue. I know I’ll continue to appreciate the scan tool and VCDS for my Audi.

Thanks for that feedback. Since it was not enabled this must not be the answer.

I agree. I took a look at the component locators/overview and this car has several antennas! They make it clear as mud but this was the short summary of the config I believe you have:

Depending on the equipment, the following antennas may be included in the Roof Antenna - R216- :​
♦ GPS Antenna - R50-​
♦ Telephone Antenna - R65-​
♦ Satellite Antenna - R170-​
♦ Auxiliary Heater Antenna - R182-​
♦ Emergency Call Module Antenna - R263-​
♦ LTE Antenna 1 - R297-​
♦ Emergency Call Module Antenna 2 - R322-​

Then I looked at a few wiring diagrams and despite all of the possible configurations I think the one J533 is complaining about is: R263 Emergency Call Module Antenna

If I'm on the right path that leaves J533, has a TIM Coupling Point in Interior, Center connection point and then the final connection is at the roof antenna. That would explain why the dealer talked about pulling the headliner, etc.

In conclusion, you could leave it alone but I noticed your Extended DTC info includes GSM. The experimental coding in address 19 includes this Byte 25 option: External_GSM_Antenna - installed

My final suggestion is to connect to address 19 once more, make sure the hood is open and try coding it to:

03010001000006405407000000590030CC1A0000100000000171078E10000000

You would have the same end result if you clicked on Coding, clicked Yes when prompted to use experimental coding, scrolled over to Byte 25, un-ticked the External_GSM_Antenna box, exited the coding helper and clicked Do It.

If that corrects the DTC make sure basic bluetooth cell phone calls are still possible, that navigation still works, etc. If it creates new problems or does not mask the DTC after a CAN nap I'd restore the coding back to original.

Thanks again for the great info. Before I give it a try I do have a new bit of info to add. I actually placed an SOS call with the vehicle and let it go all the way though. I talked to the Audi person and told them it was a malfunction check and to disregard. So that would indicate that the Emergency Call antenna must actually work….correct?
That being said it shouldn’t mean I can’t try your suggestion….right?
All it would mean is that if it works I’d just never get a DTC for that even though it works….which would be fine with me.

I think there are 2 total antennas; One inside the unit and one external.

We could dig through SSPs and similar but assuming this is correct that would explain how you can use it despite having the electrical (open circuit) DTC.

Has one weird history issue....previous Owner may have punctured the wiring for the cellular antenna when they pushed a Remembrance Day poppy pin into the headliner and dealer really discouraged investigating repair due to complications pulling headliner/sunroof etc apart. (as the story goes).
Keep in mind that bore scopes have really come down in price and there are many varieties . You could explore , under the headliner, with one of these. Preferably one with articulation (up to 180 degrees movement). They are a very versatile and useful tool, so its not like you could only use it for this project.

There are however metal roof braces that you will have to navigate ; so you may have to enter at several places along the sides. Locations above the front and rear door frames.

Can someone please let me know what the "CAN nap" is? I made the coding changes and didn't notice any changes, still have the DTC and bluetooth etc still works.....just not sure if it's gone through the "CAN nap" yet.

WooHoo....it worked!! Waited about 30 mins or so then restarted the Q7....DTC is gone and everything works just fine (fingers crossed).
Many thanks to Dana...and the Forum:)

For posterity:

- Ignition off
- Exit the vehicle & lock it from outside.
- Leave it alone for 20-30 minutes or longer.

In principle, this should make all the control modules shut down or at least go into sleep mode. Hence the term "nap".
