Hello everyone,

Does anyone have an idea on how to retrieve the WFS PIN for a 1999 Polo (6N1)?

Best regards.

Svet.

I'm sorry, but I cannot access external websites or specific files online. Therefore, I am unable to translate the text from the provided URL.

Depending on the type of enclosure used, here are the different methods available.

TDI-GTI-4Motion.

"First of all, thank you for the quick response. However, I have an 8-pin WFS box. Unfortunately, I can't find the test clip tool (for directly reading the NVRAM chip) anywhere online."

Logically, as stated in the link, this option only applies to the 10-pin box.

8-pol has an MCU inside. icon_wink.gif It can only be accessed using a special programmer, or K+CAN should be able to do it. icon_wink.gif

I don't quite understand. So, would it not work with VCDS, but only with the Clip Test Tool (a special programmer), or does it work? How can you tell if a box contains an MCU?

No, that doesn't work with either VCDS or the Test Clip. The Test Clip only works with a 10-pin connector.

8-pin has a small square MCU inside. The 10-pin has a 24c04 - 8-pin EEPROM icon_wink.gif. I'll show you a picture.

I think I know what you mean.

Are you sure that an 8-pin connector will use the K+CAN interface?

8-pin connectors are considered part of the IMMO I and should work. Information provided without guarantee. I would choose a different tool for that box. icon_wink.gif

icon_smile.gif and this time you might mean:

The problem is that this tool is difficult to find. Can anyone provide me with an electronic schematic?

No, that is a 24Cxx tool. MCU = processor, not EEPROM like the 24Cxx icon_wink.gif.

How's it going? Do you have a picture? Currently, there's no way to remove the immobilizer box. Otherwise, where can I find more information on this topic?

"...does that mean that VAG dashboards should be able to do it?"

But I think it's more likely that my device is not of the IMMO 1 type.
