Roof Console - Three-Button Module - Reprogram

[futori]

I've tried to do it through VCDS, found the string (can't remember where it is...) but it asks for the new number in 16 digit hexadecimal or something, but it didn't accept the Australian toll-free number as a replacement value. I gave up after about 5 minutes, but I'm happy to go hunting for the location again if someone else wants to play with it

edit: after reading the OP again, maybe we could all just copy the coding that's on his Passat if you can organise to hook it up to a laptop?

this should be set up when the vehicle is PDIed and can be changed via adaption channels in the phone control unit 77 should be set to vw assist and I button to your local dealer/selling dealer will find out the actual adaption values tomorro

That would be great, thanks mate.

Thanks bushnut. I must say that this is one of those things which the dealers miss very often.

I've checked around if it can be done to mine and i don't think the three buttons will function for service calls like in europe,
coding or adapting different numbers can be done you could possibly store a workshop number or nrma road service it will call through
your own phone. Thats about it!!!

Does anyone know if it is possible to change the number that is dialled when you press and hold the the INFO or SPANNER button on the roof console. It is meant to dial VW ASSISTANCE and VW INFO but it is programmed to dial a german phone number 008008655792436.

Can we re-program these buttons using VCDS ?

Thanks in advance

see this thread, still waiting on bushnut to get back to us

If you have VCDS select installation list, then select phone channel 77, then select adaption, then scroll down and find the channels
written in text (emergency numbers) and (information) change these to a number you want then press ok. This will only work when your
own phone is connected via bluetooth and will dial the number through your phone only. It will not work if no phone is connected.
Be careful and don't change anything else accidently there are a lot of other adaptions!! otherwise trip to dealership to recode may be
required

Thanks grtuned

Now, if a few people can test this and report back on their car model types and years (e.g., MK6 Golf GTI MY11.5 etc). Cheers.

It ask to enter the phone number as a 7 hexadecimal numbers separated by a space. Anyone know how to convert aussie phone number to hexadecimal. eg. 0411 222333 to xx xx xx xx xx xx xx.

Thanks.
