Hello, I have a request as a complete beginner: I need some information about the following control unit: 1 CO 959799 A. I assume it is for the central locking system? It has three connectors, one of which is not connected (15-pin). Can this device be used to retrofit a remote control system, and if so, how? Vehicle: Skoda Octavia Combi, manufactured in 1/2002, 90 HP, 1.9 liters. Looking forward to hearing from you. Best regards from the beginner

The part number is incomplete; it's missing the index/color code that reveals the exact details about the control unit. Furthermore, it's questionable which control unit is currently installed and whether the production periods align.

Hi!
I couldn't find the part number 1 CO 959799 in the parts catalog, and I believe the number might be incomplete. However, none of the control units listed under 1 CO 959799 have the note "for vehicles with FFB" included. That note only appears for the 1J0 959 799 AH control units. I suspect you need one from this series for retrofitting the original FFB (likely the 1J0 959 799 AH 05N). However, it only costs 192 EUR.

The part number 1C0-959-799-A is correct, but as mentioned, the index/color code is missing. Please note that there is no letter "O" (Ohhhh) in the part numbers, only the number "0" (zero).
P.S.: 1C0-959-799-A is also available with FFB.

Okay, I found it now too.
Wow! There are at least 30 different versions of "central control units" available.
"comfort system".
At first glance, it appears that only the 04H and 04J variants are not designed for Force Feedback (FFB).

According to the latest count, there are over 250 affected units, as the control unit is installed in numerous models. Without a correct index, it will be difficult to determine the exact number.

Even the incorrect ones... read them through the diagnostic tool, that's the only way to know for sure...

Okay, here I am again. I was at the mechanic yesterday to get some things done, including the TÜV inspection  . In that process, I requested and received the data from the comfort control unit  . Here's what was printed: Comfort system - door control unit (TSG) front.
1CO959799A
4H Comfort Device HLO 0003.
Coding 67.
Company registration number 31480.
1U4959801D
4H Door Controller. FS KLO 0002.
1U4959802D
4H Türsteuer. BF KLO 0002
Okay, here's the translation:
"Now, my question again: Is it possible to retrofit a radio-based locking system to this device, and if so, how? Thank you in advance for your answers. Best regards from a newbie."

No, this control unit (part number 1C0-959-799-A-04H) does not support that feature.

So far, so good  . Now, I need information on the options for implementing a feedback system. Can you easily purchase a suitable control unit for this (from the VAG group?)  And what would the cost be  ? You can certainly provide me with the corresponding part numbers }. Thanks again, and I commend you for your expertise and speed. Best regards, Volker.

"Here I am again, I just found an engine control unit on eBay with the part number 1c0 959 799 B/ 00J. According to the seller's description, it's suitable for FFB (presumably a type of steering wheel). My question to you is: Can I use this unit? And if so, what key(s) do I need for it (part number?) Thank you in advance for a quick answer (the eBay listing ends tomorrow afternoon)."
Greetings from the newbie.
