yep my cable won't work with vagcom now....compu_85 said:Has anyone else had problems with their vag cables after doing this? My Uni-Com suddenly stopped working. The light comes on, but nobody's home...

Update:TeleDawg said:FWIW... I've tried this cable (eBay Link) using a Dell C600 labtop with the Boot CD with NO luck. BTW, the cable works fine with VAG COM 409.
Still looking for a solution...![]()

The CCM PN is 1C0 959 799C, but at memory address 04361-63, the value is 202, not 138.
Think I should try 194 in the first 2 and see what happens?
EDIT: Setting addresses 04361 and 04362 to 194 works perfectly.

SOOOO?superfastsilver said:If I understand correctly, I don't need to purchase Vagproduct KVW100 if I have a rs-232 cable and vds pro?
I already have an alientech, and I would like to try this for my wife's passat.
BTW, this thread ROCKS!![]()
I have a cable inspired by http://www.planetfall.com/~jeff/obdii/ and I can always make my computer boot up from 98 platform.compu_85 said:Sooooo what? Do you have a comptuter that can boot to dos? What kind of vag-com cable do you have?

Isn't that about the same cable as a Ross-Tech ISO-COM? (Opto-Coupler Based)superfastsilver said:I have a cable inspired by http://www.planetfall.com/~jeff/obdii/
My cable works great with an old version of VAG-COM. I will post as soon as I have time to test it.Nate_Grauvogel said:Isn't that about the same cable as a Ross-Tech ISO-COM? (Opto-Coupler Based)
I still need to make myself a correct boot CD like TeleDawg did.
I, for one, am curious to see how you fare with that cable.
I haven't had luck getting VDS-Pro to communicate yet, but from what I read just now, it may be a vd.cfg problem, not a cable issue.
I'm finding out that I'm a bit fuzzy on how to make custom boot disk images - would you mind sharing a few pointers, please?TeleDawg said:I just got this cable/laptop combo to work ...
(I ended up having to create a new Win98 MS-DOS boot cd image with the correct VD.CFG config file on it)
If you are still running Win98, you won't need the boot disk I think. The whole point of the boot disk was that XP can't easily handle this 16-bit application, but Win98 can. You ought to be able to launch VDS-Pro directly from Win98 and then make the mod.Nate_Grauvogel said:I'm finding out that I'm a bit fuzzy on how to make custom boot disk images - would you mind sharing a few pointers, please?
I've got the correct VDS-Pro files I need to add, but am getting stuck on what tool I need next... boot into win98 and use it to make the boot disk?
Thanks!
So far no joy for me either. I have my old Win98 laptop - I made a boot diskette, and connected the laptop to the car with an old serial cable, and it won't connect. With the same cable and my XP laptop I can connect just fine using the old shareware version of VAG-COM, so it isn't the cable. I suppose the COM port on the Win98 laptop could be fried - I suppose that is the next thing to try.Nate_Grauvogel said:I skipped straight over 98 and Me and went straight to XP... that's how long I held onto Win95... sad. So, no 98 machines sitting around.
I grabbed a Win98 boot disk creator from http://www.bootdisk.com, made a floppy, and then was able to go back and replace its diagnostic utilities with the VDS files.
It boots and runs fine, but still no joy using the iso-com cable - but I'm not sure that I'm not missing something... I don't know if the port is active or not when running in DOS mode. An I/O problem? :shrug:
Foiled again!compu_85 said:Still won't work because VDS has to be run in DOS mode. Unless you have a USB com port driver, you can't use a USB cable.

And I thought it was just me...vwnumber3 said:I have a question for those with a wagon. I did this with the KVW100 from Impex on my 02 Jetta Wagon. Works great. I have found a bug or something wrong. Here is the situation: We go somewhere and park the car and lock it as normal. When we come back to the car I usally grab the kid and load him in the car seat while my wife puts the stroller in the back. So here is the sequence:
1. unlock car from fob
2. release rear hatch from fob
3. I open a rear door to load up the kid
4. wife opens rear hatch to load up stroller
5. wife closes rear hatch
Then the horn will beep like when you lock the car. Then the alarm goes off. I can't figure out why this is happening. I can make it happen and it never happened before this mod.
Any ideas?
