MK5 Rabbit PODs Reset Issue

They may take issue with the errors in your 16 Steering Wheel module, since there is an airbag in the steering wheel, but I don't see anything else that could potentially cause you issues getting your airbags certified.

Understood

What about trying to clear all the codes outside the Airbag 15 section?
I should do this, cycle, and rescan, correct?

If so, is the Security Access button similar to the one in the Airbag 15 section?

No fault code found.

That looks good to me.

The faults at address 16 suggest this car likely needs an ignition switch.

Unnecessary, and no security access is needed to read or clear codes. And Per Uwe, you can probably make the steering wheel errors go away with a new ignition switch, though that might not be necessary for your airbag certification.

The ignition switch you speak of is 1K0905849B?

I found this vid on how to access, remove, and replace.

Seems straightforward and not too involved. Does this require recoding, etc once replaced?

No, it's a "dumb" component.

I believe so; at least, that's the part number that FCP Euro returns. I don't have the Etka subscription to confirm by VIN...

Well, good news. I cleared the codes and only the Cruise Control Switch came back. Looks like I should be good to go.

Thank you for all your time and help.
