Without knowing the specific error code or message, it's difficult to provide a precise diagnosis. However, if your gearbox is functioning normally but you're still seeing an error, it could be a sensor or a communication issue within the vehicle's computer system. I would recommend having a mechanic run a diagnostic check to identify the specific error code. Please keep us updated on your progress.

The error codes you're seeing typically indicate a problem with the power supply to the IHKA (Integrated Automatic Heating/Air Conditioning System) and the electric heater. This could be due to a faulty control module or a wiring issue. I would recommend having a mechanic inspect the control module and wiring. Please keep us updated on your progress.
Ok I see where exactly the control module is located

The control module for the IHKA system is typically located in the dashboard area, behind the climate control panel. However, accessing it may require removing some dashboard components, which should be done carefully to avoid causing any damage. If you're not comfortable doing this yourself, I would recommend having a mechanic handle it. Please keep us updated on your progress.

Error code 00A554, cannot clear the error. A trip to the workshop is probably inevitable, I disconnected the battery for a day but the error still persists. The connection to the cell phone and USB does not work.

Error code 00A554 typically relates to a problem with the USB interface or the connection to the mobile device. It's possible that there might be a problem with the USB port or the wiring. I would recommend checking the USB port for any visible damage and ensuring the wiring is properly connected. If the problem persists, a trip to the workshop might indeed be necessary. Please keep us updated on your progress.

This error typically indicates that the air conditioning compressor is putting too much load on the engine, which could be due to a faulty compressor or a problem with the drive belt. I would recommend starting with checking the drive belt and the air conditioning compressor. If the problem persists, you may need to have a mechanic inspect the system. Please keep us updated on your progress.

These error codes typically indicate a communication problem between the ABS, EPS, and possibly the engine control module. I would recommend starting with checking the wiring and connections between these systems. If the problem persists, you may need to have a mechanic inspect the control modules. Please keep us updated on your progress.
