Recode or Coding is used to set various options in a
Control Module.
Warning!
-
You should refer to the Factory Repair Manual
for your particular car (or some other documented procedure)
before attempting to Recode a Control Module. At the very
least, write down the original values. There is no other
way to "undo" or restore the original values if what you're
trying to do doesn't work out.
Notes:
-
Some
Modules require a valid Login before you can re-code them.
-
A feature
unique to VCDS-Lite:
You can leave the
Work Shop Code
unchanged, or enter any workshop code you desire. Certain
other programs always leave a tell-tale WSC when you re-code
a module.
-
The
Importer Number is only relevant for recoding controllers
that use KWP-2000. By default, this will remain unchanged
unless you have set up an Importer Number in the
Options screen.
-
Up to 20 lines of coding chart
data can be included in a Label File. This data is shown in
a balloon on the coding screen (if
VCDS-Lite is fully
registered/activated). If there is a chart, it will pop up
as a balloon when you click on the Software Coding field
Use the
[Do It!] button in to save the new Soft Coding to the
controller and return to the Open Controller Function screen.
Use the
[Cancel] button to return to the Open Controller Function
screen without saving.
