Troubleshooting & Component
Locations - If traction control indicator light does
not light up, check vehicle voltage and
wire from terminal 31 of ABS control
module -J104- to instrument cluster for
short circuit to B+ and open circuit.
- If traction control indicator lamp
remains continuously lit, check wire
from terminal 31 of ABS control
module -J104- to instrument cluster for
short circuit to Ground (GND).

Repair Manual, Electrical
Equipment, Repair Group 90; Instrument cluster
- Are both the vehicle voltage and the
wiring from terminal 31 of ABS control
module -J104- to the instrument
cluster OK? Malfunction in

No malfunction recognized!
If this display appears, process
is concluded. No DTCs are
stored in DTC memory.
If corresponding warning lamps
light up anyway, check the
following points:
Voltage supply for ABS control module -J104-
below 10.5 volts at a vehicle speed less than 6
km/h. Open circuit in activation wire for ABS warning
light -K47- between ABS control module (w/EDL) -
J104- and instrument cluster combination
processor -J218-. - See section "Overview of
indicator lamp functions"
If no malfunction can be found, and there is still a
problem, there may be a mechanical malfunction (e.g.
solenoid valve sticking). - Expand troubleshooting to

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,
ABS/EDL or ASR system is switched back
on and the warning lights turn off.
Open circuit or resistance too high
between voltage supply of terminal 15
and ABS control module -J104-
(terminal 1). Voltage jumps in vehicle system.Battery malfunctioning.
