Multi-function steering wheel,
On Board Diagnostic (OBD)

General notes


Technical features of the multi-function
steering wheel
The multi-function steering wheel enables the
radio to be operated from the steering wheel (the
most important functions) and contains an
extensive On Board Diagnostic (OBD).
The control module for the multi-function steering
wheel is equipped with a DTC memory. When
malfunctions occur in monitored components or
wiring, Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are
stored in DTC memory with a description of the
malfunction type.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of accidents observe the
following:
During a road test in an airbag-equipped
vehicle, the VAS5051 tester or the VAG1551
scan tool must always be fastened to and
operated from the rear seat by a second

To reduce the risk of injury to people and or
damage to the electrical system and
components, observe the following:

Always switch ignition off before connecting or
disconnecting test/measurement tools.
It is possible that the control module will
recognize a malfunction and store a DTC during
some tests. Therefore, after completing all tests
and repairs, check and if necessary erase the
DTC memory.
Always switch ignition off before disconnecting
or connecting the battery. Failure to do so may
damage a control module.
