Hello,
I retrofitted a tow hitch to my Passat 3C and installed an aftermarket wiring kit. Sure, here is the translation of the text from German to English:
"This should be from Bosal."
Now I have several errors stored in the error memory.
Okay, bitte gib mir den deutschen Text, den du ĂŒbersetzt haben möchtest.
***EDIT: I'm going to cut this short here: I initially thought there might be a software update from VW for this, but that doesn't apply to my vehicle. Thank you to vagtuning.
Okay, bitte gib mir den deutschen Text, den du ĂŒbersetzt haben möchtest.
"Does anyone know of similar issues with other vehicles, or perhaps even a solution to this problem?" I'm concerned that constant communication problems might prevent the CAN bus from settling down, which could lead to the battery being drained.
"Error code log attached (VIN removed to avoid directly criticizing the dealer). Communication problems occur every time a key is removed from the ignition. The trailer hitch lighting functions perfectly, both with and without the ignition on." AHK-related errors occur in the body control module (BCM), comfort control module (CCM), gateway control module (GCM), and AHK control module.
Best regards,
Guste.

Quote: | | It is incomprehensible to me why a mandatory AHK test is required for a software update of a gateway control unit (which was already installed in the car before the AHK was added). |
Is there another TPL available for the gateway? Perhaps there will be an update available even for cars without a trailer hitch, in which case it would be difficult to perform an AHK function test, wouldn't it?
Once the latest software is installed, it doesn't matter to you whether the reason for the update was a bug in the AHK or something else.
Best regards, Rainer.

Your GW cannot be updated further, as the TPI only supports vehicle-related data.
with a gateway up to a maximum of... Index C applies, but you have installed Index E!

Oh my.
You're welcome!
Although I had paid very close attention to the index, I hadn't noticed the leading three digits, so "xxx 907 530 E" becomes "xxx 907 530 K". I hadn't noticed that the first list only included 1K0 control units, while the 3C0 control units are listed further down, and, as you correctly pointed out, only up to index C.
Therefore, the question of whether Volkswagen will release a GW update is no longer relevant.
There's only one thing left to consider: what else can I do?
I've recently learned from an acquaintance who installed a Westfalia electric drive kit on their Touran (manufactured in 2009), and it seems to be exhibiting the same error messages in the same control units. This is particularly surprising, considering that Westfalia is supposedly the company that manufactures the VW control units. Some forums even report that, underneath the Westfalia retrofit sticker, there was a VW sticker.
Regards,
Guste.

I'm dealing with my problems when I look at the org. AHK, are you ready?
Yep, a dead battery due to a lack of bus tranquility. Drive to VW and have the software updated from version 40 to 48 according to the TPL (Technical Product Lifecycle) guidelines.
I'll send you an email with more details shortly.
Regards,
Hendrik.

Hello guste100,
I'm having the same problem!
The trailer hitch with control unit and cut wiring harness.
I bought these parts from a car dismantler; they are supposed to be in a...
Passat 3C model. The tow hitch is made by Westfalia.
Here's a section of the log from my Passat:

Last month, the car was at VW for its inspection, but...
It also didn't make any difference.
I found a note in an installation manual for an Audi on the internet:
Regarding the "no signal/communication - sporadic" message.
read "you should simply ignore this notice."
I don't see that as a solution!
Best regards,
ruebasan

Hello Ruebesan,
At least you have an original VW trailer hitch control unit. Your gateway is also up to date.
This is a real problem that Volkswagen should really try to solve. Unfortunately, I suspect that VW will point out that the AHK control unit is not the latest version (the current version is index E, not B) and that they will try to replace the AHK control unit.
It would be interesting to know if it would be better then. But are you sure you want to take on those costs without any guarantee?
Short question: Have you checked if the DWA (door/window alarm) is working for you? I haven't noticed any malfunctions on my end. Recently, I wanted to test if the alarm system (as described in the manual) works when the DWA is connected. According to the manual, the alarm system should trigger if the DWA is activated and then the plug is pulled. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to achieve that yet, even though all the lights on the caravan are correctly wired and functioning.
Perhaps the DWA function is the one that doesn't work in the older STGs and some retrofitted AHK-STGs. It would be interesting to know if this feature was already available on the first 3C models from 2005, or if it was implemented later.
Regards,
Guste.

I still have some Index D plus internal wiring harnesses available.
Only the wiring harness to the connector is missing.

Do you happen to know if the errors listed above occurred with that?
What would you like in return?

I don't have precise answers to either the first or the second question.
Opinions or beliefs, but the latter doesn't really belong here either.
It was mainly intended to be informative; if you need anything, just reach out via private message.

My Index E surprisingly doesn't have any problems with the C CAN-GW using software 0040, even though there's a TPL associated with it.
Perhaps Guste can test drive the D sometime  . Thanks to the second battery, you can quickly access the connectors, right?

Transparency, Teamwork
... there was another T.
I don't know what the f*ck it was.

That's a great idea!
But (aside from the fact that I don't know if vagtuning would even lend out the control unit), my aftermarket Bosal E-kit unfortunately has completely different connectors (or only one instead of two), so while I can easily access it, I can't simply swap them around.
Otherwise, I probably would have jumped in without further questioning.
But I'm curious to see if Ruebesan wants to take the test, and if so, whether it could then be narrowed down to the AHK-STG group.
Regards,
Guste.

I also hoped that during the inspection at VW, they would find a...
new software for the trailer hitch control unit.
Unfortunately, that didn't happen.
I would try swapping the test with the control unit.
already carry out...
