The
various computers in the car are called �Control Modules� or
"Controllers". On this screen, you select which Control Module
you want to "talk" to. Note: Your car will not have all the
Control Modules listed in VCDS-Lite, only the ones on the
Applications Page for your car. Newer cars have more,
older cars have fewer.
Each tab
on the top of this screen contains a number of different
controllers grouped by category: Common, Drivetrain,
Chassis, Comfort/Conv, Electronics 1, and Electronics
2.
Each possible controller is listed as a number and a
description, i.e.,
[01-Engine]. The number corresponds to the
controller number that you'd find in your Factory Repair
Manual in the instructions for using a VAG-1551 or other
factory diagnostic tool.
To
establish communications with a particular Control Module,
simply click on the appropriate button.
