ECM functions
The Motronic ECM -J220- performs different OBD functions, carried out with the ignition switched on or with the engine
running. Following are the conditions required to carry out each of the specific functions.
Address words:
Address word 00: Automatic Test Sequence r Ignition switched on -or- Engine running at idle
Address word 01: Engine Electronics r Ignition switched on -or- Engine running at idle
Address word 33: OBD II (generic scan tool) r Ignition switched on -or- Engine running at idle

Function 03: Output Diagnostic Test Mode Ignition switched on
Function 04: Basic Setting Engine running at idle
Function 07: Code Control Module Ignition switched on
Function 08: Read Measuring Value Block Ignition switched on -or- Engine running at idle -or- Driving Modes under address word 33: Mode 1: Transfer diagnostic data Ignition switched on -or- Engine running at idle
Mode 2: Transfer operating conditions Ignition switched on -or- Engine running at idle
Mode 3: Check DTC memory Ignition switched on -or- Engine running at idle
Mode 4: Erase diagnosis information Ignition switched on -or- Engine running at idle
Mode 5: Output of HO2S signals Ignition switched on -or- Engine running at idle
Mode 6: Transfer measuring values Ignition switched on -or- Engine running at idle
Mode 7: Check DTC memory Ignition switched on -or- Engine running at idle Under Address word 33, Mode 1 to Mode 7 can be addressed.
Under Mode 1 individual measuring values can be displayed. Mode 1 is not recommended for use in an Audi Service
department, because these values can be displayed much more precisely using address word 01 and "Basic Setting"
function 04 or "Read Measuring Value Block" function 08.
Mode 2 shows the operating conditions under which the stored malfunctions were recognized.
With Mode 3, DTC memory is checked-with Mode 4, DTC memory is erased.

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) table
Notes:
The DTC table is organized according to SAE and VAG diagnostic trouble codes.
The "MIL" column labeled specifies the MIL switching condition associated with that DTC.
DTCs that do not switch on the MIL after the malfunction is recognized by the ECM are identified by the MIL switching
condition "Off."
DTCs that do switch on the MIL immediately after the malfunction is recognized by the ECM are identified by the MIL
switching condition "Immed."
DTCs that are recognized by the ECM and switch on the MIL after two consecutive driving cycles (Dcy) are identified by
the MIL switching condition "2 Dcy."
Always correct malfunctions that are designated "immediately" as soon as possible, followed by those malfunctions that
are designated "2Dcy."
When all repairs have been completed, erase DTC memory ( Page 01
-40
) and then generate new readiness code
Page 01
-62
DTCs that are recognized as a result of intermittent malfunctions, or DTCs that are not erased after repairs, are classified
as sporadic malfunctions. These are identified by the designation "SP" appearing in the display.
A sporadic malfunction will be erased if it no longer occurs after 50 driving cycles during which the engine reaches
