VW Golf MK5 01299 code

[Pzolee]

Hi friends!

I'm going crazy with a golf. In the auto trans i get this error: 01299 - implausible signal.
Donor car came, switched gateway, trans ecu, steering ecu, checked cables, but its still there. Coding is ok, flashed new softwares where i can. But i can not find the fault. Please help me!
Thank you!!!

VAG Error Code: 01299

Fault Location:
Diagnostic Interface for Data Bus (J533) - No Signal/Communication/No or Incorrect Basic Setting/Adaptation - Intermittent

Possible Cause:
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)(K83) active.

Wiring/Connector(s).
Defective Control Module.

Possible Solutions:
Check/Replace all faulty Wiring/Connector(s).
Read Measuring Value Blocks (MVB).

Special Notes:
If the fault is only found in one control module, then most likely that module is the issue. However, if the fault is found several different control modules, then the CAN Gateway could be the issue.

As taken from my EOBD II Fault Codes software which you can Google.

Try to rewrite softies 533. vaspc19 or vas5163(VASEGD2). If you need it stops updating the device is defective.
need to prepare for this job. Bet or used J533

check vehicle speed sensor they tend to go very ( notchy ) test live data with vag-com with steady speed increase
should be a nice even increment, if faulty eg: 7 - 19 - 21 - 29 -ect . rarely flag up a code directly and create all sorts of silly problems

I changed the variant coding in steering column ecu then the p01299 code vanished in the tcm module but it starts giving other errors I'm thinking either the tcm is faulty or variant coding is off which I did not discover yet
