How do I get 20? LOL

even at 10, it does not show all the colours properly anyway so i cant imagine that much of an improvement with 20

Ignore the exact ENG codes - just put the numbers in the slot you want the factory white to be in.

Thanks for this DreamensioN- got white back on the board!

Hey guys....OBD came today and picked up my Arteon Monday....I can’t get the app to connect to the device. I have pushed it as hard as I can into the slot as someone earlier advised but still no joy.....am I missing something / I got a faulty OBDEleven?

Do you see a red light on the device when you plug it in? As soon as you do, you should see a blinking red light. If you dont thwn its either faulty or not plugged in properly. I dont have to force it at all so dont do it too hard or you might damage the pins.

Na no red lights when I plug it in....tried switching ignition on and having the car started ��

**capuman** · 06-09-2018, 07:11 AM

Sounds like its faulty then (assuming its correctly plugged in.. i hear some people here say they needed some sort of an extension to plug it in, i didnt need it though).

I know that passats require the extension. And arteon dash is a straight lift from Passat, so...
