Basic Settings
(VAG 1551/1552
function 04)
This screen is presented
when a Control Module is in
Basic Settings Mode.
Basic Settings Mode is
very similar to Measuring Blocks,
and the contents of each display group is the same,
the difference is that the Control Module may try to
perform various calibrations while in this mode.
Warning!
You should refer to the Work Shop Manual for your particular
car (or some other documented procedure) before
"playing"
with the Basic Settings function.
Although you can use the Up and Dn
to scroll through the
available groups just like on the Measuring Blocks
screen, this is probably not a good idea.
You can also enter a
Group number directly an click Go!
Note:
Hitting the ENTER key is not the same as clicking Go!.
The ENTER key will usually close the screen.
I know this is annoying. Sorry.
I expect to fix this in a future version.
Switch to Meas.
Blocks will switch back to the
passive (and "safe") Measuring Blocks mode.
All other comments
regarding the data presented
on the Measuring Blocks screen apply to this screen
as well.
Use Done,
Go Back to return to the
Controller Info / Select Function screen.
The most common use for
the Basic Settings function is
to Recalibrate the Throttle Body. This is accomplished
using Group 098 or 060 depending on the type of engine.
The best way to do this is to go to the appropriate group
using the Measuring Blocks screen. Note: The ignition
must be ON, but the engine may not be running!
Verify that you have the correct group by noting that
the fourth display field reads "ADP OK". Then click
Switch to Basic Settings. You will see the fourth field
change to "ADP RUN" for a few seconds, and the values
in the first and second fields should change as the Throttle
Valve moves. After a few seconds, the fourth field should
change back to "ADP OK". Wait another 30 seconds for
everything to "settle" and you're done!
Another common use for
Basic Settings is to bleed
the ABS Hydraulic Unit on newer cars. Please refer
to the service manual for your car before attempting
to do this!
You can begin and end a Data Log while in Basic Settings.
Basic Settings in KWP-2000:
On Controllers using KWP-2000, there is now an
ON/OFF button
that allows you to initiate and exit Basic Settings while still being
able to see the values in the measuring groups.
