Since collecting our 08/2021 T6.1 Combi, VCDS has highlighted code B1916 F2, eCall Battery Used Up. This was a false positive as VCDS was indicating a battery charge level of 94%. I suspect that the van had been laid up for some weeks prior to sale and the eCall / Telematics battery had dipped...

I've just ordered a new battery - an Exide EK820. T6 with stop start. Changing from an EFB to AGM battery as advised. I've got a paid up Carista Evo, thought easy to code. Just looked in the Carista app and can see that I can change the Amps, Brand and Serial number, but not the battery type...

Did you get the new battery coded in?

Update - new (coded) battery, same faults. Tested the alternator and that seems to be the problem. Noticed on other threads that broken wires below the alternator can be a common fault. Will keep the thread posted....

Fitted a new Varta 95Ah AGM battery and coded it in. All was going swimmingly until I got to the coding as my VCDS was showing different to all the methods/examples I had seen online. Then to throw a curveball in when selecting the battery chemistry there was no option for VCDS. The I had a...

The glow plug light does come on at cold but should go out as soon as the vans started. Have “all” the error codes come back? Do you have access to a voltmeter? Or does your code reader display the battery voltage? A low battery can cause lots of error codes (but not usually those ones) and...

Just done mine with VCDS, went to 80ah AGM from 70ah EFB+. Coded it ok (AGM = "fleece" for battery construction), but then spent the last 24hrs having to monitor and adjust my Victron DC/DC charger due to the change in Smart Alternator output. TBF, I am being lazy and can't be bothered to run a...

2017 T6 Startline CXGB engine code. Hi. New to the forum and posting online, so please excuse any mistakes. Fitted replacement Bosch pre cat sensor and still getting the following codes. Suspect wiring or ECU issues, but the new sensor may not be compatible? Have taken a number of drive cycles...

I have a converted 2017 T32 and van has been sat for a month or so on the drive, came to start last week and completely dead battery, charged battery for most of the day, van started fine however shed loads of warning lights on the dash and no speedo and erratic fuel gauge. Checked running...

What was the fuse for? New battery coded to the van? I get a stop start error that hangs around for a while every time I disconnect the battery so I wouldn't worry about that one personally.

Just to keep members updated. The dash went blank today after driving 70 miles, only Halfords open. I had a new battery installed and the fault codes are gone.

New battery installed and coded by the garage. It’s definitely a happier van, the pioneer head unit doesn’t restart with the auto start stop

Thank you. BTW American is a typo -now sure how that happened. Was supposed to be Main vehicle battery change.

This. Additionally you may have some nuisances like Start&Stop not working (and no error codes thrown) until your ECU has decided that the new battery is of its liking.

Hi everybody, Apologies for the story but I’m not sure if it’s all related or coincidental or whatever? So a couple weeks ago myT6.1 camper displayed a few low battery warnings that at first I believed could be sorted with driving, however after several battery low messages I decided to get a...

Upgrade my 75Ah EFB+ battery for a 95Ah AGM battery and coded it with OBDeleven. Setting the new capacity, manufacturer and serial number was pretty easy to do, however changing the type took longer than it should have done. Battery Regulation (61) module >Long coding > Byte 2 The options I...

I suspect the only relavant thing for coding is the Amp Hour rating, even though it can be coded for battery manufacturer and serial number. If the amp hour rating of the new battery is the same as your old battery then it is probably OK?

The starter battery on a EOM van with factory Alarm..... Should last 3-4weeks and start up ok. the AGM battery is expected to last 3-5years. Scan the van for codes.... I'd there is a draw you will get a error code... Quiescent power draw to high. And make sure there ARE NOT WIRES ATTACHED TO...

Hi Dell, yes it does have stop/start, sorry should have said. It was RAC technician who installed new one this morning and told me it didn't need coding! I'm going to email RAC and ask them to come back out and double check. Just paid them £281, and don't want premature battery failure. Thanks...

I changed my indicators to 4 flashes rather than default 3. Disabled seatbelt warnings. You can force a regen. Tear drop wipe enabling. If you don't mind an error code coming up, you can change the start up screen picture on the dash (error code 01384). Many things to mess with, but I use mine...
