Engine Management
In the A6, there will be no CAN data exchange
with the dash panel insert when production
of the model begins. For this reason, the A6
has the following interfaces in addition to
those of the A8:
Pin 43 Immobiliser/self-diagnosis
Pin 19 Coolant temperature signal
Pin 81 Fuel consumption signal
Pin 54 Road speed signal
Pin 37 Engine speed signal
Pin 48 Warning lamp for electronic
throttle
Additional signals/
interfaces
In the Audi A8, the following interfaces also
exist for data exchange via CAN bus:
Pin 67 Crash signal
Pin 43 K-line/diagnostic connection
Pin 41 Compressor ON/OFF
Pin 40 Air conditioner requirement signal
Most of the interfaces and additional signals
of the ME 7.1 are described in SSP 198. Only
the new interfaces and additional signals are
dealt with below.
