DTC table: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- The following table contains all possible malfunctions that are recognized by the Transmission Control Module (TCM) -J217- and displayed by the VAG 1551 or VAG 1552 Scan Tool (ST) when the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory is checked.
- The DTC is printed out in the "Rapid data transfer" operating mode only when the printer of the VAG 1551 scan tool is switched on. Example: 5-digit DTC 65535.
- If malfunctions occur occasionally or if the DTC memory was not erased after corrective actions, these malfunctions are indicated as "sporadic" for a specified amount of time. Malfunction recognition by the TCM, see ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD II), FUNCTION .
- If components are determined to be malfunctioning when the DTC memory is checked, check the wiring to the components for a short circuit and open circuit.
See appropriate System Wiring Diagrams .
- "Dcy " means "driving cycle. " Conditions for recognition of a driving cycle (Dcy), see MIL FUNCTIONAL CHECK .
- Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) function, see MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (MIL), FUNCTION .
- The "MIL" column in the DTC table indicates the conditions for which the MIL will be switched on. If, for example, "2 Dcy" is indicated, it means that the MIL will be switched on after 2 driving cycles. If "Off "is indicated, the malfunction has no influence on the MIL. If "On" is indicated, the MIL will be switched on immediately when the malfunction occurs.
