ABS/EDL Bosch 5.0
Warning lights, functional overview
If On Board Diagnostic (OBD) has detected a
malfunction in the system, it indicates the
malfunction by lighting up warning lamps when
ignition is switched on. The warning lamps are
located in the instrument cluster.
Instrument cluster without DIS
The illustration shows the ABS/EDL warning light -K47- (right arrow),
the warning light for brake system -K118- (center arrow, red symbol
for "brake system malfunction") and the traction control indicator light -
K86- (left arrow).

1) Possible reasons why the indicator lamps light up
If an irregularity occurs during the self test after ignition is switched on, and the warning
lamps -K47- and -K86- do not light up for 2 seconds, check the warning lamps; "Electrical
test" page 01
-68
, carry out test steps 19 and 21. The possible causes are as follows:
Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting & Component Locations
Repair Manual, Electrical Equipment, Repair Group 90; Instrument cluster
The battery voltage is insufficient. None of the lamps in the instrument cluster light up. Check
the battery.
X 1)
The ABS warning light does not light up during the self-test. There is a short to Ground (GND)
in the wiring that controls the ABS warning light between terminal 32 of the ABS control
module -J104- and the instrument cluster. This malfunction does not affect activation of the
ABS warning light. For vehicles equipped with ASR, the traction control indicator lamp lights up
during the self-test; "Electrical test" page 01

, carry out test step 19.

If activation of the lamps and the voltage supply are OK, the warning lamps light up for 2
seconds during the self-test after ignition is switched on.
The vehicle is either equipped with or without ASR, warning lamps do not switch off after self-
test. However, the red "brake system malfunction" symbol did not go on. Carry out the
"Electrical test", page 01

, test step 20 and observe the next example of lighting
warning lamps.

1) Possible reasons why the indicator lamps light up
X1) The vehicle is equipped with ASR:
There is a malfunction that affects only the ASR system. The ABS and EDL systems are not
deactivated. Check DTC memory page 01
-97
.
ASR is switched off via the traction control button. If the traction control indicator light does
not light up in this case, check the switch and the indicator light, carry out the "Electrical test",
steps 21 and 22 page 01
-68
.
ASR is in adjustment mode. The traction control indicator light blinks 3 times per second.
Short circuit to B+ in the traction control button: The traction control indicator light switches off
five minutes after ignition is switched on.
The lamp remains constantly lit after ignition is switched on, but none of the above mentioned
conditions are true. There is a short to Ground (GND) in the wiring that controls the traction
control indicator light between terminal 31 of the ABS control module -J104- and the
instrument cluster.
There is an irregularity present or a complaint has been made. The indicator lamps go on
during the self-test and then go out. The possible causes are as follows:
The DTC 00526 "Brake light switch -F-" is stored in DTC memory , check DTC memory
page 01
-97
.
The DTC 00668 "Vehicle voltage terminal 30" is stored in DTC memory , check DTC memory
