X1) The vehicle can be equipped either with or without ASR. The ABS/EDL lamp remains
constantly lit after ignition is switched on and the the red "brake system malfunction" symbol
also lights up 3 seconds after ignition is switched on.
WARNING!
Driving the vehicle presents the risk of accident! The brake system will only be partially
functional. Because brake pressure at the rear wheels is no longer regulated vie
Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD), the rear wheels tend to brake excessively. This
causes the rear of the vehicle to break loose.
For all vehicles:
The VAG1551 Scan Tool (ST) is connected and the data link to the ABS control module
(w/EDL) -J104- was established. For vehicles with automatic transmission and high-line
instrument cluster, the red "brake system malfunction" symbol does not appear
immediately after the ignition is switched on. Instead, the note "Depress brake pedal
before engaging gear" appears in the display. Press the brake pedal and select a gear.
The red brake warning light appears, if the light control is working properly.
On Board Diagnostic (OBD) recognized a malfunction that led to deactivation of Electronic
Brake Distribution (EBD), ABS, EDL or ASR. "Check DTC memory" page 01
