stu h 0 Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 its probably worth getting the spares to keep just in case they give up in the future.it may even be worth plugging in the new ecu to see if that solves yer prolem, cos its just a quick job.if that doesn't cure it -get the fault codes read somewhere.

badboyV6 4 Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 Yeah id go with Stu on that- for 50 quid for an ABS ecu is cheap enough- ive heard they are very expensive new!!! And its the easiest thing to replace. If you dont use it - you could always sell it on ebay for more than that..... And ive also heard they are known to go kaputt... Link to post Share on other sites

Atlas 12v 0 Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 ^^^^ What Binliner said ^^^^ You'll be totally wasting you money. Drive to a VW Dealers and chat up a service advisor and they'll get a technician to test it. Link to post Share on other sites

marco 0 Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 Trace the sensor wires back until you find the connector - there should be about 1000 ohms resistance through each sensor - I'd bet my house on one of them being faulty. Link to post Share on other sites
