VCDS Release 11.11 PDF Manual Printing Instructions: - Ross-Tech

VCDS - Security Access Screen - Section 21-A
(VAG 1551/2 Function 16, KWP-2000 only)
The Security Access Function must be used on some (but not all) KWP-2000 Control
Modules before you can Recode or change Adaptation values. On others, it "enables"
certain features like cruise control. Valid Login codes can be found in the Factory Repair
Manual for your car.
Balloons: VCDS can show Security Access "charts" when appropriate information is
available in a Label File for the control module in question. The balloon will appear when
the mouse cursor is hovered over the Enter security access key field.
The Security Access Function supports 7-Digit SKCs. This type is largely obsolete since
VW no longer give out PIN/SKC's but has been left in place for those who obtained their
SKC, Importer, WSC, and date prior to 2005.
For more information, see section 16 in this manual for the 7-digit PIN/SKC function.
The Option field is only to be used if you are given specific instructions from Ross-Tech.
Use the [Do It!] button to save the Login and return to the Open Controller screen.
Use the [Cancel] button to cancel the Login and return to the Open Controller screen
