    VAG COM ADS Enable- How often does fault code for Charisma trigger?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hello,

    I was wondering if you enable ADS via Vag COM on a non-equipped car for it, how often will the charisma fault code go off for not having the buttons? Also, does a fault light stay on the whole time? May be an old question, but I've gone through a quite a few threads on it and no one mentioned just how often it goes off. Sorry if it is a repost in advance. I really want to do this, but I don't want to be bothered by an error code nonstop while I am driving even though it seems like it is worth it. For those of you that have wired the buttons, how is it length wise?

    It only comes up when you check for your fault codes with vag-com or at the dealership but not when you start the engine nor have anything to indicate that the ADS buttons are missing.

    Excellent! That was the best case scenario answer haha.

    Just realize that yours is 2013 so it's ADS button not buttons.
