Law_ · 03-12-2008, 10:08 PM

Hi there x)
i wonder if you can help me.i have vag-com but not the Ross tech one.I cannot do the Login to acess the Engine.The Login code 12233 does not work neither 26262, 01283 or 11463.
What i would ask you was if someone can tell me the code, see on Elsawin or in the last case ask Ross Tech about it.
I would be very grateful. Here are the details : VW Golf Mk4 1.4 16v 09/1998 ECU : Magnetti Marelli 4AV
Thank you very much

What in the engine are you trying to access?

Law_ · 04-12-2008, 06:31 PM

Just the Login. i just want to change my idle speed (decrease a little)

First of all, you don't "try" logins randomly. NEVER. Second, all the logins you stated are either for specific other purposes or specific other engines. Third, you missed giving us a specific ECU part number AND software version from your car.

BTW: There is only one VAG-COM and it's from Ross-Tech. If you have something else, then its not VAG-COM.

But you should state what exactly you are using anyway, because some tools/versions have known flaws which might be related here.

Sorry for all the points...So here it is:
Control Module Part Number: 036 906 014 AA
Component and/or Version: MARELLI 4AV 2444

To explain better, i use the version 704.1 of Vag-com.What i was trying to say was that my cable is from other brand.In fact it has no brand at all but.Hope i made myself understandable x) Cheers and thanks for the advices

OK, so that sounds like you don't have a genuine Ross-Tech cable - genuine ones have the Ross-Tech brand on them - Ross-Tech: Home

No matter what claims anyone makes to you, the Ross-Tech software does NOT work with other people's cables. You need a genuine one.

Just to confuse matters a bit more, VAG-COM is no longer called that - it's called VCDS

Law_ · 05-12-2008, 04:36 PM

Ok but its the same everywere i ask...
One thing is people dont know the code because its the first ECU and the engine is not the most usual. But above that i've made everything with my cable and vag-com 704.1. i can login in several engines, do the adaptations, read measuring blocks, coding, read errors...The only problem is that i dont know that 5 digits code. The difference from my cable to the Ross Tech one is only one : The price! and appart from that nothing. So if you want to sell me a cable that costs 2390516320746102387912 euros is one thing but i know that it wont help at all.
If someone has an answer that contain a 5 digit code i will aprecciate.
Cheers

I'm not trying to sell you anything, but I sure as sh*t don't condone people ripping off software companies, but that's another discussion.

Law_ · 05-12-2008, 10:10 PM

exactly

You bought a cheapo cable with pirated software, and it doesn't work. Maybe you'd be best to ask the seller of the cable why his product doesn't function correctly or have the relevant instructions that you need.

Ross Tech staff (Sebastian who replied to you further up the thread here) will provide excellent support for their customers, but you aren't one of their customers really. If you were then I have no doubt that you'd have your problem sorted by now.

Like I said, try asking the supplier for technical support. That would be my first port of call.
