VCDS Coding Issue
Posted: Sun Feb 14, 2016 11:24 pm
Finally got around to having a bit of a tinker with the VCDS today and attempted to recode some basic modifications (windows on key fob etc.)
Anyway, I made sure to read up on how to go about it before starting, printed off a list of my current module coding so I had a baseline to go back to and then used the Ross-tech wiki to better understand how the coding works and what values I needed to change, but I'm having no luck.
The problem I'm having is that the Software Coding values don't save. I click "Do it!" after ammending the value to include the change I want to make and it reverts to what it was. The only way I could actually get the value to change at all was to use the feature that allows you to scroll through each byte and make changes by selecting / deselecting various check-boxes. Unfortunately, the things I wanted to change weren't in that list.
I've read something about certain modules requiring a login code before you can recode them, could this be the case here?
