ABS Light + Handbrake Light Flashing

[polokaj]

Yup checked the internal fuses.

I watched him do the work, he basically rewired the aftermarket harness and never messed with the actual wiring!!

[alexperkins]

Hmm it could just be coincidental. where abouts are you located mate?

[polokaj]

I'm in stockport, The VAG cable arrived yesterday, i'll see what it says and let you guys know. Thanks

It says no fault on the ABS, now I'm really confused!!!

[alexperkins]

clear the fault codes and rescan then we can look at problems that are persitant

[polokaj]

Ok I now get this:

VAG-COM Version: Release 409.1-S

Control Module Part Number: 6N0 920 904 K
Component and/or Version: KOMBIINSTRUMENT BOO V05
Software Coding: 00444
Work Shop Code: WSC 00735
1 Fault Found:
01316 - ABS Control Module
49-00 - No Communications

So any ideas on how to fix it, checked all the fuses, what else could it be, maybe the HU issue I mentioned before, can't be a coincidence or can it?

[polokaj]

Any ideas?

[alexperkins]

The ABS module isnt getting any power. Try scanning the engine controller seperately, then the ABS controller seperately. Doing a full scan somtimes obscures the outcome.

[EUMANIA]

i also have this problem help?...how to fix it done the above but doesnt seem to work i havent put it on a vagcom or that to check actually what the fault is though

[benmkiv]

Vaccine is always first port of call mate. Could be faulty sensor or I k ow with the ABS the fuses on the battery are very common to fracture

[Trottagti]

Mine was doing this and it turned out to be my brake light switch on the pedal box..

May be another area to check, seems odd though....

I've come across a few with that fault, first time I tried a few things, ended up pulling the ABS ECU off the bottom of the pump and replacing it.

Solved the problem.
