SERVICE INFORMATION

2011-2012 Touareg - Replacement Procedure for Driver's Seat Control Module -J810- 

After replacement of the Driver seat control module (J810) the vehicle may not recognize the new module. The adaptation test plan may not set the seat module location properly and it may display as a passenger seat control module.

To set the module through Vehicle Self Diagnosis:

  1. Connect the new Driver's Seat Adjustment Module (J810) on the driver side.
  2. Disconnect the Passenger Seat Adjustment Module (J720) or remove the SC20 fuse (see ELSA for correct fuse per model).
  3. Switch Ignition ON: Using VSD, enter address 06 (passenger side seat module).
  4. Select adaptation channel 1 and change the value to a '2'.
  5. Switch ignition OFF.
  6. Reconnect the Passenger side seat module. Vehicle should now recognize both address 06 and 36.
  7. Set the adaptation (basic settings) of the seat or seats using the test plan or by running the seat through full range of motion including backrest and lumbar.
