Having trouble eliminating the brake pad warning icon from the trip computer.
2001.5 S4
I went <a href="http://www.ross-tech.com/vag-com/cars/audiB5.html">here</a>, copied down my existing code, which is 02264, and tried to change the "02" to "06". However, when I click on "Do it!", the icon is still there, and when I check the code again, it reverted to the original "02" code. I then tried changing to "04" just for kicks, but got the same thing.
Any ideas? I'm using release number 208.1. Thanks!

Less Vaggy way to do it is to insert a wire between the terminals on the connector
All it's looking for is a closed connection. I used a forked terminal and it fit great inside the plug for the pad sensors.

Try 00264
Also, why are you using such an old version of VAG-COM? Update!<ul><li><a href="http://www.ross-tech.com/vag-com/download/">http://www.ross-tech.com/vag-com/download/</a</li></ul>

On my A4 I couldn't get VAG to do it when the warning was already on.
I finally had success permanantly turning it off with VAG by doing it when I had temporarily reconnected the sensors wires. After that it was off for good.
Basically it seemes that VAG would only turn it off if it wasn't already giving a warning.
