Haven't posted over in the TDI section before, but now I have many reasons to lurk here as well as the IDI forum!
Picked up this 2001 TDI Jetta GL with 114k for a song. Has an auto that is stuck in park. Will be fixing up and swapping to a manual trans for daily driver status. Very clean exterior, paint is in great condition. Needs a windshield. Interior is a little dirty, hoping to find a nice leather interior to swap.
GL model so crank windows and no sunroof. Nothing to break there.
Engine cranks over great and sounds perfect reving in neutral.
The automatic seems like it is stuck in park/neutral. You can put it in any gear, D, R, 3, 2, 1 and rev, and nothing at all, no attempts to move. Indicator on the cluster moves and indicates correct gear selection.
I can roll it forward in Neutral, but cannot roll it backwards. I would love to at least make this thing be able to roll backwards, not sure why it won't.
Looks like someone was messing with a bit of wiring under the hood. A few electrical related codes showing up. Will have to go through the wiring and fix some of that, who knows maybe the auto will start shifting?!

http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index...6/P3130/01259219586/P3130/012592 - EGR System: Regulation Range Exceeded
Possible Symptoms
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) ON
Possible Causes
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Valve (N18) faulty
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) faulty
Possible Solutions
Check/Replace Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Valve (N18)
Check Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) faulty
00652
http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/0065200652 - Gear Monitoring: Implausible Signal
Possible Causes
Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) Level not OK
Vehicle Speed Sensor (G68) dirty/faulty
Impulse Wheel dirty or Installation faulty
Gearbox Speed Sensor (G38) dirty/faulty
Impulse Wheel dirty or Installation faulty
Multi-Function Switch (F125) faulty (but not detected)
Clutch or Valve Body faulty
Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) Pump faulty
Possible Solutions
Check Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) Level
Check/Clean/Replace Vehicle Speed Sensor (G68)
Check/Clean/Replace Gearbox Speed Sensor (G38)
Check/Replace Multi-Function Switch (F125)
Check/Replace Clutch and/or Valve Body
Special Notes
The ratio of engine speed to gearbox output speed in the currently engaged gear is implausible.
Slip rpm with torque converter lock-up clutch disengaged must be greater than stall speed.

http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/0030000300 - Transmission Fluid Temp. Sensor (G93) - Implausible Signal
Possible Symptoms
MIL On
Transmission Not Shifting Properly or in Limp Mode
Possible Causes
Wiring/Connectors from/to Transmission Fluid Temp. Sensor (G93) faulty
Voltage Supply for Transmission Fluid Temp. Sensor (G93) faulty
Transmission Fluid Temp. Sensor (G93) faulty
Possible Solutions
Check Wiring/Connectors from/to Transmission Fluid Temp. Sensor (G93)
Check Voltage Supply for Transmission Fluid Temp. Sensor (G93)
Check Measuring Blocks for Transmission Fluid Temp. Sensor (G93) Readings
Check / Replace Transmission Fluid Temp. Sensor (G93)
01192
http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/0119201192 - Torque Converter Lock-Up Clutch
01192 - Torque Converter Lock-Up Clutch: Mechanical Malfunction
Possible Symptoms
Torque Converter Lock-Up Clutch slipping
Possible Causes
Torque Converter Lock-Up Clutch faulty
Valve Body faulty
Internal Failure in Transmission
Possible Solutions
Check Torque Converter Lock-Up Clutch Slip
Special Notes
When found in 4-Speed Automatic Transmission (01M), check Measuring Value Block (MVB) 007.
00668
http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/0066800668 - Supply Voltage Terminal 30: Signal Outside Specifications
00668 - Supply Voltage Terminal 30: Implausible Signal
Possible Causes
Fuse(s) faulty
Wiring/Connectors from/to Control Module faulty
Power Supply (Battery/Generator) faulty
Possible Solutions
Check Fuse(s)
Check/Repair Wiring/Connectors from/to Control Module
Check Power Supply (Battery/Generator)
Special Notes
When found in an individual control module, it's most likely a local source (e.g. wiring/connectors).
When found in multiple control modules at the same time, it's most likely a common source (e.g. ground spot, battery, generator).
Intermittent codes are often stored during low outside temperature when the battery capacity goes down and may be ignored.
00532
http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/0053200532 - Supply Voltage B+: Signal too Low
Possible Causes
Wiring/Connectors from/to Control Module faulty
Power Supply (Battery/Generator) faulty
Possible Solutions
Check/Repair Wiring/Connectors from/to Control Module
Check Power Supply (Battery/Generator)
Special Notes
When found in an individual control module, it's most likely a local source (e.g. wiring/connectors).
When found in multiple control modules at the same time, it's most likely a common source (e.g. ground spot, battery, generator).
Intermittent codes are often stored during low outside temperature when the battery capacity goes down and may be ignored.
Common with 16946/P0562/001378 - System Voltage: Too Low stored in other control modules.
01316
http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/0131601316 - ABS Control Module: No Signal/Communication
Possible Causes
Wiring/Connector(s) from/to ABS Control Module faulty
Fault(s) stored in ABS Control Module
Possible Solutions
Check Wiring/Connector(s) from/to ABS Control Module
Check Measuring Value Blocks (MVB)
Usually Measuring Value Blocks (MVB) 125+ show the current Communication Status
