The ECM and the engine need to be from the same vehicle and then the ECM needs programming with your VIN Number and your mileage.
Code U0100
What Does the U0100 Code Mean? DTC U0100 stands for "Lost Communication with ECM/PCM 'A.'" It is triggered once there is a loss of communication between your PCM and a particular module. Once this happens, the vehicle may shut off and it may not restart unless you address the issue triggering the code.May 2, 2021
code u0100 refers to data bus, engine control module(ECM) A --no communication
check all wires and connections
replace the ECM with a know operational unit
This problem is with ecu / ecm= engine control computer. These are a common and horrible problem on vw's, particularly on tdi's. The signs in a tdi are when car dash lights come on, but no glow plug light,trans gear lights flash, but car still tries to crank. And hopefully ecu has enough power to out out code u0100= no communication with ecu. Unfortunately the ecu will need to be replacd. The ecu is located under the hood, near and under the wipers. Used ecu with same codes run $50-200. New $1000. If get used one make sure has a return policy. codes must match production quarterly year.
