Diagnostic Function

Home

All GTIs with the VW Climatronic system have a hidden Diagnostic Function.
This function will allow you to access a hidden menu that shows dynamic information ranging from true speed to RPMs.

To access this menu, push buttons "A", "B" and "D" simultaneously, as illustrated in pic below.


On the Climatronic LCD, the two digits to the left of "ECON" shows the current channel that you are viewing.
Buttons "B" and "C" allow you to scroll through channels 1 to 50.

The reading on the right of the screen is the measurement associated with that channel.

The channels that we are aware of are the following :
1    Interior Temperature
3    Sunlight Intensity Reading
9    Interior Fan Speed Setting
10   Measured Interior Fan Speed
12   Dashboard Ventilation Valve Adjustment
13   Recirculation Valve Adjustment
16   True Speed
48   Engine RPM (49 on some models)

This list will be updated as we learn more.


Please Note that even though our research has shown that no damage can be done to your vehicle with the use of the diagnostic function, we cannot be held responsible for any damages that may occur as either direct or indirect result of the use of the Diagnostic Funtion.
