Make a priority of tracing and fixing the water leak before replacing the module!

 

yes i'm on it right now cheers 😃

I would be very interested is knowing how this board got wet. Me and others on here have had the problem of random multiple warning lights on the dash after standing overnight through heavy rain.

It also caused dim illumination of some warnings such as the turn indication when they should be off. The dim lights could be turned off or swapped to others by simply turning on or off other non related switches..

 

 The fix was simply to leave the windows open for a few hours to dry out the car. From your experience it looks like it was water on that module. Where is mounted?

ive had hose pipe on windscreen, scuttle and door, i put tissue on top of module, tissue didn't get wet and i couldnt see no drips so think going to go to a car wash and get jet wash on it or check on a rainy day, however the fuse box on side of dash had water marks and white residue so i think maybe the door seal might be dodgy

 

mine was mounted above pedals behind the relays above the onboard supply control unit at the back standing up, im guessing the water was running down the cable/plug into the gateway, ive not put the trims back together yet as ive been doing testing, ill take some pics tomorrow during day,

sorry was in rush had to put trim back together quickly, ive took a few photos whether they're any help or not...

 

from the info i could find 1, 2 and 3 could be where "can bus gateway j533" is located, some have a red plug others pink or blue

mine was in position 3 behind relays with blue plug,

position 1 is far left flat, mine had the bracket fitted for can bus but obviously it wasn't there

position 2 is behind steering column

some vag cars can bus can be located pass footwell, behind glove box/in scuttle or anywhere random

 

apologies if info is incorrect

any questions i'll gladly help

 

cheers

Thanks for that. It may help someone who wants to dive in for other purposes too.

I will check my door seals as they are now nine years old (doesn't time fly?) and it only happened to me this year.

 

 

I have p0610 control module options error static code.

car is cranking but not firing with glow plug light on flashing.

changed high pressure pump,fuel rail and injectors 

cleaned out all fuel system and filter.

still won’t start?

any comon probs like ecu as I’m suspected as I’m still only getting 8 bar fuel pressure on cranking.

checked all fuses relays for power and signals ect to ecu all ok.

 

 

 

Seems injectors arnt powring up maybe

A quick search on line gives:

Engine Control Unit Incorrectly Coded P0610

 

Perhaps the ECU is inhibiting starting?

 

Find the nearest member to you who is offering to check using VCDS [see map in VCDS section of Briskoda]

No common problems then? I’ve sent ecu away to be checked 

Fitted new ecu no better
