OK Guys, I found my never used Ross Tech OBD2 to 2x2 interface cable for
these old cars and son Dean is bringing down his Vag-Com this afternoon.
I¹ll tear into the center console to find the AB 2x2 receptacle. Anyone have
VC AB reset instructions? Hooked up now what?

Thanks, Bernie 


Thanks, Tom.

I needed to know if and where the 2x2 AB interface is located. I¹ll look for
it now that I know it exists, as it is not shown or defined in Bentley.

Bernie,

There is an adapter that works with Vagcom for our older (pre 1996)
interfaces.  Works with both the engine interface, as well as the Airbag
interface.

VAS 5051/2 "2x2" Adapter for Older Cars: Ross-Tech Store

Bought mine off ebay a couple of years ago.  Works with the unregistered
version of Vagcom, that has just the basic features.  While you're on ebay,
you may want to get a crowbar to break into that wallet of yours so you can
come up with the $50 or so for the cable and adapter, but you'll find it's
well worth the investment.

Keep checking on ebay, or I will include it for free for whoever buys my
200q20v (cheap, some disassembly and reassembly required)
