VCDS Error Codes

Just purchased Ross-Tech VCDS so still very much in newbie mode with it. Ran the first scan on my '05 Audi 2.0TDI A4 (B7) Avant and got the following error codes,

2 Faults Found:
01370 - Alarm triggered by Interior Monitoring
35-00 - -
01572 - Alarm triggered by Door Contact Switch; Passenger Side
35-00 - -

Bit puzzled as not aware of any problems with the alarm system and the Door Contact Switch is switching the interior/courtesy light on and off. I had a look at the code descriptors on the Ross-Tech website but still no wiser:dunno

This is a common problem, just clear the codes and see if they come back. Sometimes there's an instant fault which goes away or the alarm goes off and it leaves a fault code. I had an older Audi and every year I'd get alarm codes or door switch codes but there was never a problem with the car.

Many thanks. Cleared the DTCs and ran the car for a couple of days. Scanned again and no recurrence.:bowdown
