Hello. I'm new to this forum and all things VCDS.
I have a confirmed ABS Module fault in a VW Caddy Maxi Life 1.6 TDI RHD Manual. Purchased a used replacement from a reputable parts recycler in UK. Same part number (with the exception of the last 2 letters).
I have read on other threads here that a difference in the last two letters should be ok but have also read conflicting views on this.
I have replaced the faulty module with the new module (including pump), bled the brakes manually and subsequently took the vehicle to a friendly mechanic with verified VCDS.
Old module was plugged in briefly to read/copy the long code (19 BYTES), reconnected new module but the new module will not accept same code.
I'm now at the cross roads of, 1. Can this be done with VCDS? or 2. Do I need to cut my losses and find the correct part (ending BH)/ try again? 3. Send off original module/ pump for repair and hopefully just re-install (if that can be done)
Some more info:
Vin: WV2ZZZ2KZCX091671
Original Part - 1K0 907 379 BH
Original Long Code:
633C600D092B03FBC61106EB901AC081300000
Replacement Part - 1K0 907 379 BM (ESP MK60EC1 H46 0164)
Long Code:
00000000000000000000000000000000000000
Questions (if this procedure is possible):
1. In VCDS for the MK60EC1, does the long code just need entering in the 'Coding -07' section
2. Does the long code need adapting to suit the 1K0 907 379 BM Module (read that the 'BM' module may be 20 BYTES instead of 19 BYTES so additional '00' needed or adaptation needed?)
I don't have copy of the vehicle scan but I'm sure I could get a copy from the my mechanic if required.
Firstly, I just want to know if recoding this used replacement ABS module is actually possible as I've already spent many hours on this with no success. I really hope it can be.
Many thanks,
John
