Translating garbage PDC coding information

[pematthe]

UPDATE
I have connected the rear PDC speaker. Front and rear now do their thing and the error regarding open circuit in VCDS has gone. I have also changed the coding to remove the electric tailgate option:



Code 31A109 also works.

I still don't have the visual information on the infotainment (MIB2) or in the MFD. I have also posted to the ross-tech forum as well to see if they have any suggestions.

New code applied, 31A109, without electric tailgate option. Rear PDC speaker connected. Tones now received from both front and read sensors.

Still no visual stuff on Infotainment or MFD.

Good progress
Did you do the adaptions in module 5F? That is the mode that displays the graphics.

 

[pematthe]

Yes. I followed the instructions for 5F. Still nothing on infotainment. I have also done the power reset on it, no joy.

Are there any MIB2 units that don’t support it? Mine doesn’t have DAB so different from the UK units.

 

[manfrotto]

I don't have DAB either and all working ok.

This is the display I get - I assume the bit circled is missing on yours


Looking through the long coding on 5F the only thing I could find was this:

 

[pematthe]

Yes, that's the display I am looking for. I checked that setting on Byte 19 and it is the same. I went through other settings for coding and adaptations and anything related to PDC looks alright.

As the circuitry has been fixed, what does the factory coding 31810C do now?
Please post adaptation map of the 5F-Infotainment?

PS. T6 can't have parking assistant onboard - it's the electric steering to steer and park the vehicle "automatically"

UPDATE - SOLVED.

Firstly, thank you to all of this that have made suggestions and guided me in the dark magic that is VCDS, here and the Ross-Tech forum.

It was a single controller 5F adaptation that was missing. All instructions have referred to adaptation with PDC. This one was called parking assist. Changed to activated and the visual for front and back appeared on the infotainment.

Well done @pematthe
This will be a usefull guide for others wanting to retrofit parking assist I am sure.
