and press the button.
Press buttons -0- and -2- to select "Check DTC Memory" function 02. Press -Q- button to confirm input.
Notes:
Each malfunction is assigned a 5-digit Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). The DTC is located in the left column of the DTC
table. If you have switched the printer on by pressing the "PRINT" button, the VAG1551 scan tool (ST) prints the message
identifying the malfunction and the DTC. Otherwise, DTCs are not displayed by the VAG1551 scan tool.
The contents of DTC memory remain stored until memory is erased, page 01
-15
.
Sporadically occurring malfunctions are identified via indication of "/SP" on the right-hand side of the display.
Static malfunctions that cannot be detected when the vehicle is stationary are also identified with "/SP" if the ignition has
been switched off and then on again.
The following DTC table includes all the DTCs that can be stored by the ABS control module -J104- and displayed and
printed out by the VAS5051 tester or VAG1551 scan tool. Malfunctions are listed by DTC number.

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 10.0 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" page 01

.
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 include

CAN-bus. For more information, see the section "Systems related
to ASR" page 01

.
This malfunction only
occurs if vehicle is
equipped with ASR.


The Engine Control Module
(ECM) is not able to provide the
engine speed (RPM) signal for
the CAN-bus. - Check DTC memory of Engine Control Module (ECM).
If there is a malfunction, fix it according to the
appropriate engine Repair Manual and erase DTC
memory of the Engine Control Module (ECM).
- If there are no DTCs stored in the Engine Control
Module (ECM), replace the Engine Control Module
(ECM) as a test.

The ABS control module
(w/EDL) -J104- is not able to
evaluate the engine speed
(RPM) signal for the CAN-bus. - If the steps listed above do not repair the malfunction,
replace the ABS control module -J104-.
