Hi.
in
http://www.team-dezent.at/homepage/umbauanleitungen/Reifendruckkontrollsystem_Golf_V.pdf
The following describes how to retrofit the (simple) tire pressure monitoring system to a G5.
"The encoding (subtracting 16384) doesn't work for me because my ABS is only encoded with 13626. Also, 16k is used for trailer stabilization."
Is the 3C handled differently here?
Which codes are relevant for Auto-Hold (only control unit 53?) and TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) in the 3C platform?
Thank you.

For the sake of completeness, the private message to Martin:
Hello Martin,
What raises a slight concern is the fact that the presence of the RDÜ (Remote Diagnostic Unit) can be encoded in the CAN gateway of the 3C system.
STG 19 (CAN gateway)
Byte 02 Bit 1 65 - Tire Pressure Monitoring System installed.
I suspect that the 3C system uses its own dedicated control unit, and that the braking control unit is not responsible for it.
In comparison, here is the coding for the Golf V:
STG 03 (Brake electronics)
00641 - with tire pressure monitoring system (PR-7K1/7K6)
17025 - without tire pressure monitoring system (PR-7K0)
If you want, I can take a look at the circuit diagram tonight.
Sure, Maxx.

Okay, here's my private message as well:
RDK is not the same as RDÜ.
RDÜ is equipped with 4 radio frequency sensors on the rims, which undoubtedly has its own control unit.
RDK stands for the fun of having all the tires rotate at the same speed when the steering angle is 0, otherwise, one of the tires has lost air pressure.
The difference in the 3C marking is that it sometimes includes the tire symbol WITH (RDK) an exclamation mark on the switch, and sometimes WITHOUT (RDÜ) an exclamation mark.

I learned something new again  .
Now, the only question is, which encoding is necessary for you in the 3C  .

As I see it, there are 3 options.
a.) Tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) via ABS.
b.) Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) with position recognition -> proprietary control unit.
c.) RDK without position recognition (Passat!) -> module integrated into the comfort control unit; but with its own address (65).
see also SSP 347.
I just don't have time to check quickly whether all the devices support this, or if a new one is needed.

Okay.
"So, what the Golf 5 manual says, and what I want to have in my Passat, is the very basic RKA (it would have only cost an extra 50 euros, I simply overlooked it. Auto Hold also only cost 50 euros)."
How do I access that on the 3C, because it seems to work differently than on the Golf 5.

Okay, so far as I've skimmed the PSS (presumably a document or test), it seems like option c) is the only one available in the Passat (likely referring to a car model or a specific section).
however, there are comfort control units for...
- "with tire pressure monitoring system" and
- "with tire pressure monitoring system that adjusts based on wheel speed"
What is the TLN (Technical Log Number) of your comfort system?

There is no coding table for the 3C ABS; the coding is performed exclusively online using a target/actual comparison with the value that was programmed at the end of the tape.
The coding table for the PQ35 is NOT applicable to the PQ46, as a completely different ABS system is used. My suggestion would be that we take a close look at your data and compare them, as I have already managed to do this in the past and found the settings for the transmission variant - finding the one for the RPA shouldn't be too difficult either...
"@Schraubi, he wants to retrofit the wheel speed sensor-based system (actually, it's called a Tire Pressure Monitoring System or TPMS), and the comfort control module isn't involved in that. The sensor-based TPMS is, for example, installed in the PQ35/PQ46 models in the US market."

@sebastian
I've (already) realized that, but I previously thought that it only existed as a variant with the "Komfort" package (on the Passat).
P.S. Did you receive/read my private message regarding resetting channels 5-8 in the combination meter for the Audi 8D? Please reply via private message.

Oh no, different data?
OK, what should I extract?

It's not reading anything other than the ECU part number; we already have the coding information. However, it would be helpful to have the vehicle data carrier or its option codes so we can identify things like the brakes, etc.

OK, coming...
There are only two versions of brakes available, and I have the "smaller" ones, the 16-inch version.

Have you found anything yet?
If it were even possible to use it without activating the button, I could start using it on Saturday (July 21st). That's when I'm going 1200 km to the water  .
Thank you.

Don't forget, but we're still missing some reference data. However, I've already narrowed it down significantly, so it shouldn't take much longer.
