IrishBlue Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 I should start by saying my car knowledge is limited so bare with me! The engine management light came on in the car (Audi A6 - 2014 diesel). I assume it's the number of shorter trips I've been making. As such I have taken the car a few runs at high revs and put DPF cleaner in to it. However I'd like to reset the EML to see if it stays off. I assume (Using youtube clips) that I need to reset the fuse. However I am not sure what fuse to reset. Forums suggest Terminal 15 engine. When I look at the fuse schematic for my fuse box which can be seen here (https://knigaproavto.ru/shemy/en/audi/a6/28-audi-a6-c7-2012-fuse-box-diagram.html) under Luggage compartment fuse assignment there is nothing named like that. So as such which fuse should I reset? Thanks
IrishBlue Posted May 15, 2021 Author Posted May 15, 2021 Thanks Steve- I had seen your link to that earlier. Thanks. However which of them fuses will reset the EML?
ThomasG Posted May 15, 2021 Posted May 15, 2021 I don't think you can reset it with a fuse removal. You need to clear codes for it not to come on.

ThomasG Posted May 16, 2021 Posted May 16, 2021 Worth buying the OBDEleven for this sort of code clearing. https://obdeleven.com/en/ and I'm not on some sort of commission for mentioning it in all the posts!! It's just saved me a lot of money!

It's just saved me a lot of money! Thinking about buying one of these... but a tad confused by their website .... it appears I have to buy a device and then "credits" .. in order for it to work, but nowhere does it tell me a what I get for my "credits", how long they last, or when I can use them.. just a link to buy more.. 😞 and not a lot of detail in what it can diagnose ... eg ,, can it report on DPF state ie soot/ash levels ?? who knows as I can't find anything about it anywhere .... 😞
