Hi,

 

Please could somebody help.

 

ABS does not work, but its not the usual faults!

 

  • ABS light goes off after a few seconds. but ABS does not work
  • Checked the ABS on VAG-COM, no problems found, all 4 wheel sensors work indicate road speed
  • Done OUTPUT test on VAG-COM ABS modulator works
  • Brake pedal switch works

 

  • Loosened N/S ABS sensor and pulled out 5mm so that the sensor is not detecting the ABS ring, when pulling away now at low speed O/S front ABS modulator applys brake to front O/S (i.e. tractsion control working)
  • ABS light still goes through test and goes out even when sensor disconnected!

Car is 1998 Galaxy Ghia 2.8 4x4

 

Further Info from VAG-COM

 

VAG Number 1J0 907 279 H

Component Number ABS/EDS 20 IE CAN 0001

Soft Coding 12812

Shop # WSC 00020

 

 

Any Ideas?

 

 

Best Regards

Mike
