lights AUDI A4 2000 B5 / 1.G Brakes ESP Electrical Testing Workshop Manual

01-303

Note:
The operation manual for the VAS1978 wiring
harness repair kit generally forbids the repair of
any lines in the ABS or related systems. This rule
only pertains to the shielded lines in these
systems.

Ignition and electrical consumers switched
off before beginning testing (headlights,
lighting, fan, etc.).
For steps 13 through 16, raise the vehicle
until the wheels rotate freely. On vehicles
with manual transmission put the gear shift
lever in neutral. On vehicles with automatic
transmission move the selector lever to
position "N".

of ABS control module -J104- to instrument cluster for
short circuit to B+ or open circuit.
- If voltage of electrical system is OK and wiring from
terminal 32 of ABS control module -J104- to instrument
cluster is intact there is a malfunction in instrument

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 lights
continuously, test wiring from terminal
31 of ABS control module -J104- to
instrument cluster for short circuit to
Ground (GND).
