There may not be any other way to fix it except to replace your instrument panel. That's where your immobilizer is located. Or you could try this:
Try cold-booting the car. Remove both battery cables from the battery.
Short the battery cables together (away from the battery) for about 15
seconds. Reconnect the battery. No guarantees - I found this info at tdiclub.com.
The only information I have on the 1997 to 2005 Passat is; expect problems with suspension, axles and electrics. Gearbox failures are possible. Catalytic converter fault also.
