Hello,

I have a 1996 Alhambra with a 90hp TDI engine. The turn signal stalk has been replaced and seems to be working (you can see the reaction to inputs in diagnostic module 6).

I can't seem to activate the cruise control; the "Cruise Present" display still shows 0.0.

My A4 says 1.0...

I used code 11463, but nothing changed. The control unit is still the first generation, and the wiring harness was already pre-assembled (plug-and-play connector directly on the lever).

What could be the reason for that?

Best regards,
C. Seidel

Does this thing actually work?

Because I believe I remember that 0.0 means "there" and 255.0 means "not connected".

I think I've found the problem. The bit for the clutch switch is set, and it doesn't change when the clutch is engaged.


In my Audi, the value of the set cruise control is 1.0, and the value of the unset cruise control is 0.0... therefore, I assumed that 0.0 also means "not set" for the Sharan icon_rolleyes.gif.

The problem should therefore be resolved by checking the clutch switch.

Hallo, ich hatte auch mal ein ähnliches Problem, die GRA freizuschalten. Lösung: In einer der Freischaltanleitungen (hier aus dem Forum? - ich weiss es nicht mehr genau, will auch niemand zu nahe treten ) war ein Zahlendreher im angegebenen Freischaltcode, als z. B stand there.
11463 should actually be 11436. Maybe that's it. If not, please disregard everything and don't take it personally.
Okay, please provide the German text you would like me to translate into English. I will only provide the translation.

No, in this case, the activation seems to have worked.

It seems that only the clutch switch is defective, as it is constantly outputting a "1" regardless of the pedal position.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find a switch in the file.
