ABS Fault - unable to communicate with VAG-COM!


Recommended Posts

As title suggests, I have the dreaded ABS warning light on the dash and the VR is due for it's MOT...

I went to see Sparkz in north London and he kindly plugged his VAG-COM in (thanks again Sparkz) to diagnose the fault. Unfortunately the VAG-COM couldn't read the fault codes and an error message along the lines of "too many errors" came up.

As I drove home last night (ambient temperature was around 20 degrees) I couldn't make the light come on for love nor money. I turned the car on and off 4 or 5 times without issue, however when I jumped in this morning (temperature had dropped over night and was quite cool) the light was back on! :@

At the time Sparkz thought that I might have a dodgy ABS modulator, however after trawling the forums, anyone who has had this issue has been able to diagnose it with the VAG-COM...

Could it be that I've got a dodgy connection somewhere?...

Cheers

Phill
