♦ Radio power supply fuse OK (according to wiring diagram)


Inputting Code, Cancelling Electronic Lock-Up
– Switch on radio
• “SAFE” appears in radio display, followed by “1000” approxi‐
mately 3 seconds later.
– Input the security code found on the radio card using the sta‐
tion preset buttons on the radio. Button “1” corresponds to the
first number in the security code, “2” the second and so on.
Press the applicable button repeatedly until the desired num‐
ber appears in the display (E.g.: press button 1 three times if
the first number in the code is 3).
– When the entire code has been input and appears on the dis‐
play, press the right side of the Seek button (“>”) for longer
than 2 seconds until an audible signal is heard.
Incorrect Code Number
If an incorrect code is entered, “SAFE” will appear in the display
(first blinking and then continuous) and the radio will not function.
The entire coding procedure can only be repeated one more time
immediately (the number of attempts is displayed).
If during the second attempt an incorrect code is entered, the ra‐
dio will lock up for approximately one hour. Leave key in ignition,
radio switched on for 1 hour and attempt coding again when the
number of attempts on display goes out (ensure proper code is
available).
Cycle: 2 attempts - 1 hour lock up still applies.

The limiting values according to VDE 0848 part 2 (max. permis‐
sible radiation strength for personal protection) must be adhered
to by reducing the transmitted output.
Voltage Supply
When retrofitting a transmitter/receiver unit in the vehicle, the bat‐
tery is used to connect the positive and negative wire.
The wiring harness must be manufactured additionally:
♦ Voltage supply positive via red wire, 2.5 mm cross section.
♦ Voltage supply negative via brown wire, 2.5 mm cross-section.
The positive wire must have a fuse which must be located very
close to the battery. Therefore a fuse holder must be secured next
to the battery. Both wires must be encased in an insulating hose.
Make suitable connections at battery end.
On unit end proceed as per owner's manual.
The additional wiring harness must be routed separately from ve‐
hicle wiring, the distance apart must be at least 10 cm.

Radios Anti-Theft Security Code, Input‐
Prote AG.

ting
The security code is “fixed”, meaning the radio is programmed by
the radio manufacturer to accept only one code. This code must
be input during the new vehicle delivery inspection, into newly
installed or existing units that have been removed and reinstalled.
Prerequisites:
♦ Obtain security code, either from code card or from customer.
♦ Radio power supply fuse OK (according to wiring diagram)
Inputting Code, Cancelling Electronic Lock-Up
– Switch on radio
• “SAFE” appears in radio display, followed by “1000” approxi‐
mately 3 seconds later.
– Input the security code found on the radio card using the sta‐
tion preset buttons on the radio. Button “1” corresponds to the
first number in the security code, “2” the second and so on.
Press the applicable button repeatedly until the desired num‐
ber appears in the display (E.g.: press button 1 three times if
the first number in the code is 3).
– When the entire code has been input and appears on the dis‐
play, either press the upper portion of the Seek button (“s”) or
the “Scan” button for longer than 2 seconds until an audible
signal is heard.
The code is input properly when the display either indicates a ra‐
dio frequency, or “LSM” (ready for use). When the radio is switch‐
ed off and the ignition key removed, a flashing LED on the radio
faceplate confirms the radio is security protected.

♦ Connector housing for antenna wires can be obtained as a


replacement part only in one color, but can be used for all an‐
tenna connector colors.
♦ The replacement of individual antenna connectors during re‐
pair work is not intended.
♦ The wires are appropriate for use on all VW models with
equipped antenna wiring cross-sections.
♦ All adapter leads and connecting wires are suitable for various
transmission and reception signals.
♦ This repair concept can also be used for testing or as an af‐
termarket solution.
Assembly Overview of Antenna Wire
Example: Antenna wire from radio to antenna is faulty. For the
repair, the following wires are required:
1- Adapter lead, for connecting to radio. Length approx. 30 cm.
2- Connecting wire, available in various lengths.
3- Adapter lead, for connecting to antenna. Length approx. 30
cm.
Installation of New Antenna Wire

Note

Make sure that the total length of antenna wire can be divided into
partial lengths through control modules for antenna selection,
control modules for traffic monitoring or antenna amplifier. Re‐
place only the respective faulty partial section.

– Disconnect electrical connections of the faulty antenna wiring


from their components.
– Determine the path of the faulty antenna wire in the vehicle
and measure the total length wofagantenna

The entire length of the antenna wire consists of the length of the
required adapter leads -1- and -3- as well as the connecting wire
-2-.
– Subtract 60 cm from the total length calculation for an antenna
wire to provide for the required length of connecting wire -2-
to be installed.
– Obtain the required adapter leads -1- and -3- as well as the
calculated length of connecting wire -2- as genuine replace‐
ment part according to Parts Catalog.
– Cut off harness connectors of faulty antenna wire.
The rest of the faulty antenna wire remains in vehicle.
– Connect adapter leads -1- and -3- to modules in vehicle.
– Route and secure connecting wire -2- parallel to the old an‐

4.3 Telematics Indicator Lamp Trouble‐


shooting

Caution

♦ Telematics service provider OnStar(R) will cease to support


all analog-based telematics system subscriptions as of De‐
cember 31, 2007.
♦ Do not attempt to service the telematics system after De‐
cember 31, 2007.

The following allows technicians to perform an initial evaluation


of Telematics system operation status for troubleshooting using
the OnStar telematics indicator lamp (and prerecorded system
messages where applicable).
This serves only as an initial evaluation only and is not meant to
supersede detailed OBD program procedures carried out with
Vehicle Diagnostic Testing and Information System -VAS
5051/5052- in operating mode “Guided Fault Finding”.
The telematic indicator lamp LED is located in the telematic con‐
trol head. LED indications are red or green, lighting continuously,
blinking slowly or quickly.
Telematic system status can be determined via the LED with the
ignition switched on and referenced from the following table:
LED indication System status:
Off No connection, no malfunction
Red - continuously No connection, malfunction in telematics hardware
Green continuously After completion of self-test or when OBD program is
performed

84 Rep. Gr.91 - Communication


Golf 1999 ➤ , Jetta 1999 ➤
Communication - Edition 07.2007

LED indication System status:


Red - blinking slowly Establishing connection, malfunction in telematics
hardware
Red - blinking quickly Connection active, malfunction in telematics hardware
Green - blinking slowly Establishing connection, no malfunction
Green - blinking quickly Connection active, no malfunction

Indications, Overview
♦ LED is off when ignition is off.
♦ The green LED comes on after a self-check routine is per‐
formed (approx. 10- 15 seconds after ignition is switched on).
Sending or receiving voice communication with the OnStar call
center is now possible. LED remains on even in areas without
cellular coverage.
♦ The green LED slowly blinking indicates a communication re‐
quest has taken place and the system is in the process of
establishing a cellular connection.
♦ The red LED indicates a malfunction in the telematics hard‐
ware was determined during the self check.

Note

After pressing either the OnStar or Emergency button, a recorded


message announces: “connecting to OnStar,” followed by pro‐
gression tones. Normal connection time is 10 - 15 seconds.
However, due to local cellular/GPS conditions, making a connec‐

•= Always observe good workshop practices. Wear goggles when you operate machine tools or work with acid. Wear
goggles, gloves and other protective clothing whenever the job requires working with harmful substances.

•= Tie long hair behind your head. Do not wear a necktie, a scarf, loose clothing, or a necklace when you work near
machine tools or running engines. If your hair, clothing, or jewelry were to get caught in the machinery, severe
injury could result.

•= Do not re-use any fasteners that are worn or deformed in normal use. Some fasteners are designed to be used
only once and are unreliable and may fail if used a second time. This includes, but is not limited to, nuts, bolts,
washers, circlips and cotter pins. Always follow the recommendations in this manual - replace these fasteners with
new parts where indicated, and any other time it is deemed necessary by inspection.

Cautions & Warnings
•= Illuminate the work area adequately but safely. Use a portable safety light for working inside or under the vehicle.
Make sure the bulb is enclosed by a wire cage. The hot filament of an accidentally broken bulb can ignite spilled
fuel or oil.

•= Friction materials such as brake pads and clutch discs may contain asbestos fibers. Do not create dust by
grinding, sanding, or by cleaning with compressed air. Avoid breathing asbestos fibers and asbestos dust.
Breathing asbestos can cause serious diseases such as asbestosis or cancer, and may result in death.

•= Finger rings should be removed so that they cannot cause electrical shorts, get caught in running machinery, or be
crushed by heavy parts.

•= Before starting a job, make certain that you have all the necessary tools and parts on hand. Read all the
instructions thoroughly; do not attempt shortcuts. Use tools that are appropriate to the work and use only
replacement parts meeting Volkswagen specifications. Makeshift tools, parts and procedures will not make good
repairs.

•= Catch draining fuel, oil or brake fluid in suitable containers. Do not use empty food or beverage containers that
might mislead someone into drinking from them. Store flammable fluids away from fire hazards. Wipe up spills at
once, but do not store the oily rags, which can ignite and burn spontaneously.

Handled improperly or without adequate safeguards, it can be accidentally activated and cause serious personal
injury. To guard against personal injury or airbag system failure, only trained Volkswagen Service technicians
should test, disassemble or service the airbag system.

Cautions & Warnings
•= Do not quick-charge the battery (for boost starting) for longer than one minute, and do not exceed 16.5 volts at the
battery with the boosting cables attached. Wait at least one minute before boosting the battery a second time.

•= Never use a test light to conduct electrical tests of the airbag system. The system must only be tested by trained
Volkswagen Service technicians using the VAG 1551 Scan Tool (ST) or an approved equivalent. The airbag unit
must never be electrically tested while it is not installed in the vehicle.

•= Some aerosol tire inflators are highly flammable. Be extremely cautious when repairing a tire that may have been
inflated using an aerosol tire inflator. Keep sparks, open flame or other sources of ignition away from the tire repair
area. Inflate and deflate the tire at least four times before breaking the bead from the rim. Completely remove the
tire from the rim before attempting any repair.

•= When driving or riding in an airbag-equipped vehicle, never hold test equipment in your hands or lap while the
vehicle is in motion. Objects between you and the airbag can increase the risk of injury in an accident.
