.: Software Version Management Error

After installing or upgrading a Navigation Unit you may receive a Software Version Management error (03276). In order to correct this error you have to decode a value from the adaptations of the navigation unit and re-enter the new value. To make clearing this error simple I have created an online calculator (Located below). By using this calculator you can generate the code that will clear this error. Simply follow the instructions and hopefully in a few minutes that error will be gone.

Here is an example of what the error may look like:

VCDS Version: XXX
Address 5F: Information Electr. Labels: None
Control Module Part Number: XXX 035 670 B HW: XXX 035 670

.: Instructions

Generate SVM fix Code

In order to correct the error you must input a new code into the adaptation channel 15 of the Navigation unit (5F).

For First timers I am including step by step pictures and instructions:

Open VCDS and Choose "Select Control Module":
VCDS_Start

Select Module 5F:
VCDS_SelectModule

Click on "Adaptation - 10"
VCDS_5FMain

Enter 15 for the channel and press the "Read" button.
VCDS_5FChannel15

Enter the number above the heading "Count" into the Calculator below and press Calculate:
VCDS_5FCount

Now enter the value you just created into the New Value area and click Test/Save:
Note that only Save may be available in which case you would ignore the test instruction.
VCDS_5FNewValue

Exit Adaptations and return to the main screen (Click "Done, Go Back").

Click "Faults Codes - 02":
VCDS_5F_Fault

If you see any Faults click "Clear Codes - 05" then "Done, Go Back"
VCDS_Fault

Now check Fault codes one more time and the SVM error should be gone. If not repeat the steps again.

In the event you go to Channel 15 and there is no Count value, clear your errors and then go back recheck. Sometimes the count will not be present until the error is cleared. Of course the error will return until you complete all the above steps again.

I hope this has helped some people clear a non effecting yet annoying error.
