 On Board Diagnostic (OBD) - Multiport Fuel Injection (MFI) Engine Control Module (ECM) versions - overview
 
Engine control modules:   4A0 906 266 A  
4A0 906 266 AA  
4A0 906 266 AB  
These are the introductory version and successor versions for the USA Audi 100 with On Board Diagnostic (OBD I). The 
engine control modules are downwardly compatible. The function and structure of the system are described in Self-study 
Program No. 130.  
Engine control module:   8A0 906 266 B  
With this version, the MFI ECM was completely modified. Important new features are:  
- Oxygen sensor control with learning function; CO adjustment on Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor eliminated. 
- Coding of MFI ECM using VAG 1551 scan tool and "Code Control Module" function 07.
Engine control modules:   8A0 906 266 E  
8A0 906 266 H  
8A0 906 266 J  
These are the successor versions of the 8A0 906 266 B control module.  
Engine control module:   8A0 906 266 D  
With this version, the On Board Diagnostic II (OBD II) was used in the Audi A6 with 2.8 liter V6, manual transmission and 
front wheel drive. Important new features on vehicles with OBD II are:

Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL), 
functions
 
    
Functional testing:  
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) must light up every time the 
ignition is switched on and go out after the engine starts. If a 
malfunction is recognized by the engine control module or the 
transmission control module, this is indicated by the MIL lighting up. If the MIL lights up continuously, there is a malfunction present that 
makes the exhaust gas worse. In this case, the DTC memory for the 
engine control module and/or the transmission control module should 
be checked. If the MIL starts to blink, there is a malfunction that can lead to 
damage of the three way catalytic converter (e.g. combustion misfiring 
with high misfiring rate). In this case, driving should only continue with 
reduced power (until the MIL goes off or lights up continuously) and 
the malfunction should be eliminated as quickly as possible. 
-  Switch ignition on: the MIL must light up. If the MIL does not light up, 
check wiring according to wiring diagram and/or replace lamp. 
-  Start engine and let idle: MIL must go out after a couple seconds. If the 
MIL does not go out after the engine starts, check DTC memory for the 
engine and/or transmission control modules (malfunctions in DTC 
memory).

 Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) table
 
 
Following are all the possible malfunctions that can be recognized by the Engine Control Module (ECM) -J192- and 
printed on the VAG 1551 scan tool printer, listed according to code identifier ( SAE and VAG codes). 
 Malfunctions that switch the MIL on never or immediately are set as "sporadic" each time the engine is started. If the 
malfunction occurs again, the "sporadic" status is set again. For malfunctions that only switch the MIL on after two trips 
with malfunction, the "sporadic" status is only erased after an OK diagnosis. 
 If the MIL lights up with engine running, there is a malfunction that makes the exhaust gas worse. If the MIL lights up and 
the engine is running, there must in any case be a malfunction stored in the DTC memory of the engine control module 
and/or of the transmission control module. In this case, the DTC memory of the engine control module and/or the 
transmission control module must be checked. 
 If the MIL starts to blink, there is a malfunction present that can lead to three way catalytic converter damage (e.g. 
combustion misfiring with high misfiring rate). In this case, the trip should be continued with reduced power (until the MIL 
goes out or lights up continuously) and the malfunction should be eliminated as quickly as possible. 
 The malfunction is not stored in the DTC memory immediately and the MIL is not switched on immediately with some 
malfunction types, but only after two successive trips with or without preceding cold start (-10  to 30 C (14  to 86 F) 
and malfunction occurring (malfunction recognition twice).  The MIL switching condition is always specified in the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) table.
 Combustion misfiring with high misfiring rate is displayed immediately with the MIL blinking, since the three way catalytic 
converters can be damaged. In this case, driving should continue only with reduced power and the malfunction should be 
eliminated as soon as possible.

 This malfunction can only occur in connection with an automatic transmission.
 If there are malfunctions recognized that are related to the exhaust system, the automatic transmission switches the MIL
