Notes:

The following table lists all malfunctions, with the corresponding 5 digit code

numbers, that can be recognized by the radio and printed out by the VAG 1551 Scan

If malfunctions do not occur regularly, these are displayed as occurring sporadically

("SP").

DTC codes appear only on print-out.

Before replacing components, check the wiring and connections to these

components as well as ground connections, according to wiring diagram.

If there is a specific complaint and no malfunctions are recognized after checking the

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory, carry out function 03, "Output Diagnostic
Test Mode"
