Locations    - If traction control indicator light does 
not light up, check vehicle voltage and 
wire from terminal 20 of ABS control 
module -J104- to instrument cluster for 
short circuit to B+ and open circuit. 
- If traction control indicator lights 
continuously, test wire from terminal 20 
of ABS control module -J104- to 
instrument cluster for short circuit to 
Ground (GND).

Voltage supply  
Signal too small  
  
Notes:  
 
This malfunction affects the voltage supply 
of the control module. 
 This DTC is only stored, if the malfunction 
occurs at a vehicle speed above 6 km/h. 
 As soon as vehicle voltage is within the 
valid voltage range again, the ABS/EDL or 
ASR system is switched back on and the 
warning lights turn off. 
Open circuit or contact resistance 
too high between voltage supply 
from terminal 15 hydraulic control 
unit, terminal 15. Voltage jumps in vehicle system.
