Westfalia Tow Bar Coding

[Paynewright]

Is there a difinitive guide on Westfalia / OEM towbar coding using VCDS? I’ve found a few snippets buried in various threads.

Having put it off for ages I’ve been into 19 Can gateway and ticked ‘69 Trailer’. Done the bits in ‘10 Park Assist’ and the long coding as per @rod_vw excellent write up.

My van didn’t have tow bar prep so wonder if there is another coding change missing concerning the module?

Not tested as yet so could all be fine!

When the dealer fitted the tow bar to my Amarok, they didn't code it. I just ticked 'Trailer' and everything worked as far as I was aware. At least the parking sensors, radio display, bulb monitoring, alarm when unpluging when the truck was locked all worked. I can only assume that the ESP setting when towing changed too.
