I have a mk4 2006 golf tdi bew engine, had no coms to the tcm, the 5 pin of the Grey connector in the plenum protective housing wire fell out, I put it back in and got this immobiser problem with all the problems u described at the beginning of the video, think this will help but in advance to to say thank you for all ur help, im donating to u for all the extra hard work u put in for us little people, love u vids, u are awesome
Hrm, going to add this to my no-start issues -- *really* check the fuses first, and note any discolouration along with corrosion. Most of my woes have been weak starters or batteries in poor condition. Since I bought a few TDIs that have sat, to repair back up, I'll be looking *carefully* at the fusebox and grounds for corrosion on those as I start reviving them. Looking forward to the next video to see what the solution is.
Knowledge is power. We learn on each car we work on, and if we watch a youtube video then we learn that problem/car too, so we gain knowledge and experience much faster.
Business keeps me from making and editing videos. Lack of "HELP" plus had computer issues. You may notice difference in editing, because I have different computer with different editing software. Maybe better??
@@CoolAirVw I noticed a difference too, The first thing I noticed was the sound of the audio is different. Hopefully you find some good help, it seems to be nationwide labor shortage.
Hey man, thank you so much for sending the link to this video, I was just being lazy and didn't wanna chase wires or mess with them really, but I guess I have 0 choice lol
2010 VW Passat No problem starting as long as outside temp is around 70 degrees F or below(starts every time). Once the car sits in the heat, car will not start and I get a "Immoblizer Active" error comes on and the car will not start.
One guy just replaced 1 10amp fuse then the problem went away. Other guy replaced an entire ECM unit to erased ECM problem went away. Other video the dude replace ECM relay #460 then problem solved.
Have a 2002 or 03 Passat with IMMO issues. Body shop had thought the immo coil with a key, used would work but I sadly told them no unless there's something I'm unaware for a solution to immo not working. Removed ECM , have here at house as customer wants the immo deleted on it or turned off as I call it. It's a Bosch unit with ME7.5. Any recommendations on software, hardware to use? I have a few Eeprom readers but would rather do it via OBD port if I can find a pinout chart and the proper software. IF you could point me to some resources that would be great and I can move towards the next step. Being the body shop (towing company also) owns it they just want the immo off to get better money for it. The car was the daughters boyfriends car. They found him a newer car already so they just want to be able to get better money for this car if possible.
resources? Send it to someone who has done it before. (me???) or fix it right. I'm encountering more and more issues where delete just isn't the right solution.

The Jar Head license plate with German umlauts is comically lame to anyone that understands German. It reads phonetically like YA-AIR HEYYD, It sounds just as stupid in German as it does in English.
@@CoolAirVw I know the Jar Head reference is a Marine. The attempted Germanized spelling and improper use of the umlauts (the two dots above the letter) was the main point of my comment. My dad was a Marine, God bless our troops and our country.

I just fixed a problem with my headlight a few days ago, it was a lightly corroded fuse.
yes!
One guy just replaced 1 10amp fuse then the problem went away. Other guy replaced an entire ECM unit to erased ECM problem went away. Other video the dude replace ECM relay #460 then problem solved.
Ok. Thanks for sharing !
You're looking great

I believe Jarhead refers to the US marines. Our customer was a Marine. God Bless America and God bless our servicemen who defend our Country.
