Good morning, ladies & gents,
As stated in the title, I need "help reading VDCS codes" and figuring out what is wrong.
My background is that I am a retired Electro-Mechanical Engineer [H N D] with a degree. I now repair laptops to keep my brain happy.
Looking at this data, I have concluded that I am out of my depth. Please give me a laptop any day.
The reason for the thread is that I do not want to be sending the wrong part off for repair, only to be told that "this is not faulty, there will be an inspection and return postage charge"
I have registered with Ross-Tech (the VCDS people), and I am now waiting for verification !!!
My vehicle is an A3 1.9Tdi 8P1
>
The car has been running fine, as of yesterday, all the dash lights came on, and neither the REV counter nor the SPEEDO were working. While this was happening, the car drove as normal, no limp mode or anything out of the ordinary except for the "dash lights"
Some months back, I installed a media centre (see the images). Now here's the thing, more often than not it works fine, BUT sometimes it does not load, only occasionally, in addition to I also fitted a front dash cam, a rear camera, a GPS module and finally a DAB facility, all of these purchased at the same time as recommended by the supplier.
Any help, please would be more than welcome.
Tony
