THANK YOU VERY MUCH for the reply on Saturday!
The VW partner cannot access the engine control units with their diagnostic tools.

Good day, Mr. XXXXXXX,

For vehicles with the LT (Type 2D), the engine control unit and immobilizer should be Volkswagen components, while all other control units should be Mercedes-Benz components.

"See the product description for the adapter; I had to look it up myself because the vehicle is quite old."

https://shop.dieselschrauber.org/en/adapter-obd2-vw-lt-mb-sprinter-p-51.php
(mechanical adapter pin configuration)

Accessing the two control units should not be a problem, provided that the wiring and control units are in good condition.

The corresponding diagnostic system would be:

https://shop.dieselschrauber.org/en/vcds-hex-v2-p-329.php

This could allow us to query the two control units about their operational status and any malfunctions they may have experienced.

Does the vehicle run? If the immobilizer is completely defective, it shouldn't be able to start (and should immediately shut off after an attempted start), unless it has been disabled in the engine control unit.

Best regards,
Rainer Kaufmann

Hello Mr. Kaufmann,

Thank you for the reply on Sunday!

The vehicle starts and runs perfectly! I'm very happy about that!
The control system only "reported" the issue after a voltage drop, and there were no startup problems.
Zu Beginn musste ich erst nachsehen, welchen Kontrolle da jetzt blinkt. The vehicle.
showed no limitations!

Sure! You can definitely post that in the forum!
I'm not the only one with this problem, but it's persistent, isn't it?
I already have two adapter cables; the VW dealer provided them.
Tried using the VW tester and "his" adapter cable on Friday.
The open workshop with my cable. The connector (VDSC) was also lit up green (if that's relevant?).

Unfortunately, without success.

Greetings


Thanks for reading. Does anyone have any other ideas? I suspect there might be an error in the WFS's fault memory, something like "control unit defective," but somehow it still manages to start...

Best regards, Rainer.
