So, I am fairly sure that my CCM is needing replacement. Fuses are good, wiring looks fine. My back hatch won't lock but randomly, the red LED light will only come back on when I pull Fuse 14 and lock doors, the interior lights will not come on when I try to pop the boot only after some time... and no beep when locking, yet when alarm button pressed it works. I have replaced OEM door locking module as well...Lots of oddities, too much to explain through one or more things. When I bought it, someone had unplugged one of the tan harness which also supports why it may be acting up.
There is plenty going around regarding software coding, and the general advice of needing to pull information from VCDS to recode the new device. But what are the steps?
1) How do I retrieve the coding from the old device?
From what I have researched the 2000 ALH Golf with manual windows does not have a central convenience module, rather a central locking module (35 - Cent. Locking for manual window cars). It has a black box with 3 connectors under the dash. I was able to pull the part #: 1C0 962 258 P 06 Zentr. V . I purchased a tested or running model second hand that was in a Golf similar to mine the same part #. I am attempting to swap it out.
2) I have VCDS-Lite 1.2 registered. Do I just enter the software code into the new module under the recoding area? Or is there more configuration needed? I would have thought it had more coding then a software code.
3) I have one key FOB. I assume it will either work or I have to add it?
