Hi all,

I installed cruise on my A3 last year with no probs. I recently installed the hardware for a colleague, and upon trying to activate the cruise by loggin into the module with '11463' got the following error:

VCDS Login Invalid
'Login Code not Accepted by Controller'

I have tried searching the forums for answers but no luck. I got some google results about some modules not supporting login to activate , and that people configured cruise using the long coding - but I cant find how you would do this.

Here are some VCDS extracts:

Any help appreciated
 
Which equipment did you install & are you sure his AH steering CU is cruise compatible?
 
Hi,

I installed a genuine cruise stalk from Audi - I didnt run the extra 'cable' to the bulkhead as this car is a '56 and I didnt think they need it? (I had to run the cable on my 2004 3.2).

I coded the SWC using VCDS and it accepted the coding for 'cruise but no o/b comp'. I can see the buttons working in measured values.

I dont see why the engine module wont take the '11463' code, as i would assume this is unrelated to the SWC?

I read on some A4 posts about the '11463' method not working for some SWC controllers?

TIA

The retrofit CC kit for vehicles with the AH controller includes a new steering controller and costs £220.

The kit for vehicles with the AF controller doesn't include a new unit and costs £62.

Therefore I assume that AH does not support CC !
 
A3 8P 53 plate, 2.0TDI 140PS 16 Valve.

I've attached a couple of screenshots from the VCDS scan I last did on the car which may be of use...

I’ve tried putting the codes 11463 and 12233 in the “Security Access -16” section as per guidance I have found on this topic and I just keep getting the following message. Note, this was with the code “12233” after the car had been sat on the drive all night and I had used the car yesterday too.

I have an a4 b7 blb 2.0 tdi and I purchased a cruise control stalk from a well known auction site and a new cowling with the hole for stalk..took steering wheel off etc clipped in the cruise stalk and replaced. Went into VCDS and activated cruise and it didn't work. After some research I found it was the clutch sensor under the clutch pedal was faulty. Bought a second hand one for around 10 quid and hey presto! Not sure if it is the same issue, but I know a lot of these fail?? ..bear in mind I'm not an expert ..
 
Forgot to say you can bypass the switch with a piece of wire or safety clip , which is what I did to test it.. check online for how to do this ..do it at own risk (mine is a 2005)

Thanks for throwing some ideas my way to try and help, mines an auto though. Still scratching my head on this one.

The only thing I can think at the moment is that my steering module is the wrong type?
