Hello!
I recently had an engine replacement (removed a 1Z 10/94 and installed an AFN 05/96), and as a result, I'm now dealing with two issues.
The first issue is that the engine starts briefly and then shuts off after about 1 second. I suspect this might be related to the WFS (whatever that stands for). Or?
My question is, how can I bypass or disable the WFS?
Actually, I don't really need them.
"The second problem is that the entire vacuum system is different. I've replaced the valves with ones from the wrecked car, but I'm not sure if they're working correctly because a different valve was connected before. I urgently need a vacuum hose routing diagram for an AFN engine. Can anyone email me one? I need to get the car running again by the weekend." Otherwise, I have a problem.
I would really appreciate it if someone could help me with that.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,

The search function solves (almost) all your problems.
Okay, I'm ready. Please provide the German text you want me to translate.

Best regards, Rainer.

Thank you for the quick response.
I've also already browsed through some of the search functions. But none of them really fit my situation.
I'm still having trouble understanding the English on the Ross website. But are they asking me to modify the old WFS? Hm.
I'll try using the connection diagram. Thanks again.
Will a workshop probably disable the WFS, or are they not allowed to do that? I've also read several versions.
Regards, Stuffy.

Hi,

I assume the car with the 1Z engine already had an immobilizer.
"With older cars, the learning process is still relatively straightforward: Connect the VAG-COM device, access adaptation channel 0 in the instrument cluster (control unit address 17) or the immobilizer (25), clear the error memory in the engine control unit or the instrument cluster/immobilizer, and you're done."

Best regards, Rainer.

The 1Z doesn't have WFS. Only the AFN probably does now.
Here's another question.
My combination instrument still works with a standard speedometer cable. The AFN, however, no longer does. I've left the 1Z wiring harness in place. Does the combination instrument from an AFN model likely work? (No speedometer cable needed) The speedometer signal is electronically read.
Sure, here is the translation of the text from German to English:

"MFG Stuffy"

This phrase is a German abbreviation that stands for "Mit freundlichen Grüßen," which translates to "Sincerely" or "Best regards" in English. The word "Stuffy" is likely a nickname or a playful way of referring to the person who sent the message.

Hmm, that's a shame. It seems like the only option is to disable WFS in the AFN STG, or use a different combination instrument.

Best regards, Rainer.

Does anyone have a wiring diagram or know how to connect the WFS (window lift system) from an AFN vehicle to the wiring harness of a 1Z (with an AFN engine) without replacing the entire wiring harness, so that the WFS will work again? I'm not sure if I need to replace the wiring harness. I'd prefer to connect the WFS directly if possible. I'm starting to get desperate. The car needs to be running again by Monday. Otherwise, I have a problem.
Is there anyone from the North Rhine-Westphalia region, near Lemgo/Detmold, who could help me with this?
Help... help...

I initially installed the ECU from a 1Z model, as most VW owners have told me. It's running now, but I still need the PIN for the immobilizer. Does anyone know which pin this is on the control unit (STG)?

Hello!
Can anyone help me with the pin assignment?
I would be very happy about that.

"MFG" is an abbreviation for "Mit freundlichen Grüßen," which translates to "Sincerely" or "Best regards" in English.

YOU COULD ASK A TECHNICIAN...

THEY DO THINGS LIKE THAT WHEN MODIFYING MOTORCYCLES... KNOW ONE OF THE BEST... techtec.de (Pascal)

icon_lol.gif



First of all, congratulations. Using 'schreien' (shouting) in your first post will definitely make you a lot of friends. icon_wink.gif



What is Tachoservice??

As is often mistakenly believed, this term is associated with the term 'odometer adjustment,' which is now legally prohibited.
That is not the case.

We, the company TechTec Fahrzeugtechnik , explicitly distance ourselves from manipulations of the mileage of a vehicle.

It always strikes me as funny when I encounter something like that. icon_wink.gif

Today, we had the opportunity, as one of the first tuners in Germany, to take a closer look at the newly released Passat. We quickly found a way to adjust the speedometer.



Regarding the topic, it would certainly be helpful if we could find out the part numbers of the control units, etc. Also, we need to know which vehicles are involved (donor and recipient) because there can be vehicle-specific differences that. I think more people are familiar with this kind of thing, but it's not always feasible due to a lack of information. icon_wink.gif

Hi,

...or he turns to the world's best tuner, who manipulates speedometers, even though speedometer adjustments only change the distance icon_lol.gif.

The thing about the shouting is already clear: Luxembourg is just far away icon_wink.gif.

Regards,
Sure, here is the translation of the text from German to English:

"Micha"

I deleted the Techtec advertisement.

Hopefully, they'll be more efficient with the rest of the order than they were with shipping the accessory cables. That's actually where they failed for me, so I ended up getting one from the OptiCAN people and attaching a different connector to it.

Best regards, Rainer.

Greetings, Rainer

I couldn't, otherwise it would have been gone already icon_redface.gif icon_wink.gif icon_lol.gif.


It sounds like you already have some experience with the guys, Rainer? icon_rolleyes.gif Apparently, not quite as positive as it should be. icon_wink.gif

Yes, sorry!!!
It shouldn't sound like shouting. Just ask... icon_cry.gif
Okay, the Bosch part number on the AFN engine control unit is:
Bosch 0281001423/424 and VW 028906021 CK. I don't have the part number for the 1Z control unit readily available at the moment; it's currently installed in the vehicle. I'll try to stop by tomorrow.
Thank you in advance.
Regards, Stuffy.
