Note:
DO NOT diagnose or replace components due to misfire faults before performing the update function as
explained in this bulletin.
Tip:
This software update is designed to re-program the ECM, Power Electronics Module, and/or Battery Management
Control Module with new software. The re-programming itself should carry out the updates without technician
intervention. Please ensure all control module software as applicable has been updated after the flash is
completed.

Technical Bulletin
Technical Background
During normal operation of the Jetta Hybrid, the electric drive motor will be activated as a generator to charge the
High Voltage Battery. Once the High Voltage battery has reached a 100% state of charge, the regenerative
function will shut off and the electric drive motor load will be released. Under certain driving conditions, this
release of load from the engine can result in sporadic misfire faults storing in the Engine Control Module fault
memory.

Production Solution
Improved software implemented into production.

Service
Update-Programming Procedure:

Tip:
To Update-Programming using SVM, review and follow instructions in Technical Bulletin Instance 2014603
“Software Version Management”.
The SVM Process must be completed in its entirety so the database receives the update confirmation response. A
warranty claim may not be reimbursed if there is no confirmation response to support the claim.

Note:
Prior to launching the VAS-PC and ODIS service diagnostic applications and starting control module update
process, confirm tester screen saver and power settings in accordance with Special Tools and Equipment Service Information Circular # VVT-12-02. Failure to do so may result in the tester entering power save mode
during data transfer, and subsequent control module failure.
When using a VAS 6150/5051B or VAS 5052A tester in conjunction with a VAS 5054A wireless transmitter head
for a flash procedure, please connect a USB cable between the transmitter head and the tester. Failure to do so
may lead to errors during the flash procedure.
VAS tools must only be used with their power adapters plugged in. Under no circumstances should they be used
on battery power alone during the programming procedure.

Technical Bulletin
Critical Warning: The Midtronics Battery Charger must be connected to the vehicle battery for the duration of the
programming, to ensure the battery state of charge remains above 12.5 volts during the update process. If the
battery drops below 12.5 volts, the programming could fail which may result in damage to the control module.
Control modules damaged by inadequate voltage will not be covered under the warranty policy. The technician
should verify the vehicle voltage prior to starting the update process, and should monitor the voltage for the
duration of the update.
