    Sure - default suggestion to replace module is nice for VW as increases their incomes - but no nice for consumer (as maybe root cause of faulty connection will be fixed during in fact not needed replacement of not faulty module)

    Anyway: does any one has experience about how ODIS reports for: a\faulty module and b\wiring issue?
    Do ODIS reports above 2 different cases differently or rather report is exactly the same for both types of failure?
    This type of report is normal. Most modules are reported as a single component so faults relate to the entire component, not parts of it. When the ECU detects an electrical fault such as short to ground or open circuit, the ECU has no way of knowing where the fault is. It is in the wires or in the module. VW do not release information for testing modules so unless you are skilled at reverse engineering electronic systems, you are stuck.

    Amazing how people come on a forum asking for help, forum members try to help them resolve it and you never hear back as to wether they resolved the issue or what the potential solutions may have been.
