Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) table

NOTE:

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: DTC 17087P0703 (VAG code and P-code).
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 TRANSMISSION CONTROLS .
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.

NOTE:

Item 11 in Fig 44 : the ignition angle is briefly retarded through this TCM signal, depending on speed and engine RPM, during a transmission range change (shift), in order to soften the shift.
Item 12 in Fig 44 : if, while there is a driving malfunction or operating malfunction, a transmission range is engaged by hand with the vehicle parked and the engine at high RPM, the ECM will reduce engine torque instantaneously by shielding the injection signals.
