ashfr, this might be a bit too obvious, but all the screenshots show com1? Are you sure it's on com2?

I 'think' the messages are basically saying 'wrong ECU', IE you can't do it on your particular car.


W11TTX, are you using VDS Pro? What values did read eeprom come back with? And did you login to the ECU before you tried to write the eeprom?
 
Its the convenience module, the pre face lift it wont work the face lift ones it will, there is supposed to be a version coming out that will work on the earlier cars, but thats been the case for at least 2 years.
 
I am surprised that so many people like this feature. I know most cars do it these days (including my mk5 ibiza) but I'm not so sure about it ever since I woke up and my windows were wide open :blink: Turns out I lent on the keyfob in my pocket when I got in lol :doh:

Luckily the car locks itself after x amount of seconds if no door is opened lol, although not sure that matters when the windows are wide open lmao. I am a bit more careful now..
 
Czech software doesnt work on my 54 plate Leon fr. Anyone know if vds or vag-com will do it? If so does anyone have instructions on how to do the window trick? Thanks.

Sorry to dig it all up. But what is it you need again.
I remember reading ages ago about needing a laptop that boots in MS-Dos or something - this still needed.

THe vag.com which is software which you buy yes?
ANd this czech software
 
To use vds pro and do it as per the link I posted then yeh, you need to boot into dos and a serial vagcom cable. vds pro is all over the place for free
