If you are having issues with your power windows, door locks, or interior lights going crazy your issue could be water getting in and damaging your CCM (convenience control module)

Thanx for the vid mate,good heads up about the breakers and the box. And what a stupid place to put vital components of the car.The ECU for the gearbox is in the floorpan on the other side too ! There is a problem with water getting in through the scuttle as well.You have to take battery and plate underneath it out, to unblock the drain ,otherwise .....water in the car. I have thought about sealing the boxes with silicon

Thanks John for posting this. I have a UK 2003 A6 C5 Avant. The CCM on mine is on the same side of the car as yours but as my car is right hand drive I'll need to remove the glove box unit to get at the trim to get access to the carpet, to get at the CCM! That said, I need to clear the drain under the battery compartment. I was wondering if you knew whether the drain was metal or plastic? Trying to work out how best to clear the drain ie. with a length of metal coat hanger or a pressure washer to force clear it?

Thank you John! Your video is really helpful to me! I have probably a similar problem. my key fob don't work, I tought they were broken and I bought a new one but it didn't work. The problem is probably in the receiver that I understand now is the CCM! Besides, I had indeed the "bottom battery hole" obstructed adn often some water spilled inside the van...I'll let you kinow what I find. But I want to ask you, did you reprogram somehow your CCm to receive the cryptede signal of your key fob?

I have a problem with the Tire Pressure Control system TPCM. From time to time the indication "malfunction tire pressure ..." is appearing on screen and at the same time ,the pressure indications on the screen are getting disappeared (all 4 wheels) replaced by three dots "...".After some time, maybe 50 miles driving or so , they are coming back again, and system is O.K. I am afraid that something is happening in electrical connections (loose connection) of the central control unit to screen.Seems like the system is loosing power. Does anybody knows where are the fuses or relays of this system ? Any photo or diagram? What else can I do ? (AUDI S6 model 2004). Thank you

It very well could be, especially if all the fuses seem ok, I would just lift the carpet at feel around for damp insulation. If it is in fact damp I would go a little deeper and open the CCM box for a better inspection. That is how this a6 started with just losing a couple functions at a time until the board finally shorted out completely. Hope this helps
