Alternatively it could be incorrectly coded - Do you have VCDS?

Hi vRStu, we must stop meeting like this... :grin:

I was surprised that it didn't work, and am pretty sure that everything went back together OK. The control module is just connected by 2 large connectors with safety clips which both snapped back into position. The board itself is fully pressed home underneath.

As to the airbag wiring, it was basically the same as the one I had with 2 exceptions. Firstly there is obviously the additional small cable and connector that goes into the bottom of the steering wheel. Then as well as the 2 black wires (one into a spade contact either side which I guess is the the horn contact?), there was an additional black and blue cable with a spade connector, which I just connected to one of the spare spade clips within the airbag unit (basically as per some of the photos put up on the forums).

I do have VCDS (legal copy), and used this to program my wheel. My old code was 0000042, and the new one 0002042 (the 2 being 3/4 Spoke Steering Wheel WITH multifunction, WITHOUT cruise control), as I was told the option 3 (which is 3/4 Spoke Steering Wheel WITH multifunction, WITH cruise control) was for US cars with the 3rd CC stalk not the one integrated into the indicator stalk as mine is.

I would really like to get this sorted, so any assitiance anyone could give would be apprecaited. I've asked Sebastian over at Ross Tech on the VAG-COM forum on VWVortex, and am currently waiting his reply ?

Cheers
Andrew
