2005 Sharan finding the CCM

[Bernievw]

Hopefully this is in the right thread now. My 2005 Sharan filled up with rainwater and now the CCM is causing problems.
The main problem is I can't find it. I googled it and and spent the last 2 days tearing into the poor vehicle. But no joy. I've looked behind the fuse box and under the seats and I run out of hiding places. Has anyone got any ideas please?

Also I've found every bit of sharp metal in the car and my hands look like I've been fighting with razor wire.

The central control unit on a post 98 Sharlraxy is under the dash on the drivers side above the fuse board and swings down on hinges, this controls just about everything. The fuel smell will be your supplementary heater, the glow plug will have failed and this makes them stink, get a proper VAG specific global code scan of the car done.

First posts normally go in introductions else you could get a free fix and we never see you again!!!

Your car spec says 0, only what I've added from this post 2005 Sharan minus engine size/type.

You made another post with the same test, its said posted in the wrong section, post deleted.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I've removed the fuse box again and I can find no CCM above it. When it falls down it is just a circuit board with relays. I've tried to upload an image but can't manage it. I understood that the CCM was a small black box. Thanks for all your help so far.

The small separate Central Convenience Module was only used up until 98.



From 1998, almost everything went into a CCU, Central Control Unit which is almost vertical behind the dash in front of the relay plate, item 2, and is quite large, this is the schematic from the parts system, item 1



This is what one actually looks like

You still haven't said which engine size/type is fitted to your 2005 Sharan? In a forum you posted the full spec in case you have other preblems.

Many thanks for your help. I located the unit dried it out and everything is working again. All the expensive warning lights have gone out and it runs sweet.

The engine is a 1.9 TDI. Thanks for your help
