2.8 Vehicle Coverage
The V862 VW/AUDI Code Scanner is specially designed to work with most Volkswagen and
Audis sold worldwide of 1990 or newer models. If a VW/AUDI has a 16-pin "OBD-II style" Data Link Connector (DTC), the code reader will certainly work. If it has an old­style 2x2 Data Link Connector (DTC), then it depends on whether there are 4 or 3 wires connecting to the pins. If there are 4 wires, each connecting a pin, then it will work. If there are only 3 wires, leaving one pin disconnected, then it will not work.
For VW/AUDI with old-style 2x2 Data Link Connector (DTC), you need to have a 2x2 cabling adapter which is not included in this product package.

If the scan tool fails to communicate with the selected
vehicle’s ECU (Electronic Control Unit), a “LINK ERROR!” message shows up on the display.
Verify that the ignition is ON; Check if the scan tool’s OBD II connector is securely
connected to the vehicle’s DLC;
Verify that the module is supported; Turn the ignition off and wait for about 10 seconds. Turn the
ignition back to on and repeat the procedure from step 5.
If the “LINK ERROR” message does not go away, then
there might be problems for the scan tool to communicate with the module being tested. The most common cause is that the scanned module is not supported on the vehicle.
The numbers (01, 02, 15, 03, 08, etc) in front of the system
names refer to the physical addresses assigned to the systems, not the sequence of the systems to be arranged.
