petervr6 0 Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 ive got the same problem my esp light stays on and my ABS light is also on.mine comes up with code that the abs in incorrectly coded but i had a guy at vw put it on the vag com and he said its that acceleration sensor causing the problem its a black box screwed to a thin bar/bracket i think under the steering colum.

DaveMcK 0 Posted May 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 i have the new sensor, it is quite easy to get to and quite expensive also... can i just directly replace it or do i need to code it!Dont want to take out the old one and put in the new one and get the same problem again!!

DaveMcK 0 Posted May 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 if you take off your panel under the steering wheel, rest your head on the pedals and look up you'll see a small box wrapped in bronze looking metal, attached to the steering column. This is your g200 latt acc sensor. there is also a bigger sensor attached- this is your yaw sensor. However i am no expert and have only come across this through research into my own problem.

pimpcat 0 Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 also check u havent got an item stuck in ur tyres like a screw as this also sets it off if it comes on then u turn the car off nd on nd its gone then it could be sumin stuck in the tyre which ive also had Link to post Share on other sites
