Depending on VAG1551 Scan Tool (ST) program card version, 1st and 2nd digit may not
be displayed (readout: e.g. 040 instead of
00040).
Software version of control head is of no
significance for service department.
If a replacement control head is not coded after
installation or if an unrecognized code was
entered, code "00042" (4-cyl. gasoline engine
USA) is stored.

Notes:

1997 If A/C control head -E87- is unable to
determine the duration of time when ignition is
off ("standing time"), DTC 01206 "signal for time
span ignition off" is loaded into memory. The
A/C control head will then default to a standing
time greater than 4 hours. The actual measured
values of the outside temperature sensor are
then used as instantaneous outside and engine
temperature inputs for A/C system control.
When the "heating" mode is selected under
these conditions, fresh air blower -V2- has a
delayed start (even when the actual standing
time is less than 4 hours and the engine is
warm) page 01
-86
, Read Measuring Value
Block. The outside air temperature display -
G106- may also indicate incorrect outside
temperature values.

If both display fields of the A/C control head do
not light with ignition switched on check control
head coding Page 01

1)This fault may be generated during Output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) (no engine speed signal recognized although A/C
compressor speed detected).
2) If voltage at -E87-connector -C3- drops below 9.5 V, compressor switches off for a minimum of 25 seconds. Compressor
switches on again when voltage exceeds 10.8 V.

1)During m.y. 1996, Nippondenso type A/C compressors were installed as a running change. These compressors are not
equipped with A/C speed sensor G111. DTC at A/C Clutch -N25- are only detected only on compressors equipped with A/C
Compressor speed sensor G111.
2)Sender G111 produces 4 pulses for each compressor revolution.
3)A/C Clutch is switched on for a few seconds after engine starts.
