Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) table

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

Note on DTC table:

When beginning OBD of the vehicle control modules, always start with function "Automatic test sequence" by pressing keys 0 and 0 because the control modules are interconnected with a data bus wire. This checks the DTC memories of the control modules in the vehicle.
All the possible DTCs which can be recognized by the ABS control module -J104- and printed-out on V.A.G 1551 or VAS 5051, are listed in the following information according to the 5-digit DTC.
DTC appears (in the "Rapid data transfer" mode) only on the print-out.

The 5-digit P code which may appear next to the DTC, is for use with the On Board Diagnostic (OBD) II and may be disregarded.
The 3-digit DTC type code is a data code and may be disregarded, but the DTC type text is of use.
Before replacing components indicated as being faulty, check all the appropriate connectors, wiring and Ground connections using the wiring diagram

Refer to Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting & Component Locations binder

On completion of repairs always check the DTC memory with V.A.G 1551 Scan Too. or the tester VAS 5051 and erase.
Carry out road test exceeding 20 km/h (13 mph).
After the road test check DTC memory again.

V.A.G 1551 print-out	Possible cause	Repair
No DTC recognized	If "No DTC recognized" appears after carrying out repairs, On Board Diagnostic (OBD) is ended. If, despite "No DTC recognized" appearing in the display, the ABS system does not function properly, then proceed as follows: 1. Carry out road test exceeding 20 km/h (13 mph), 2. Again check DTC memory, if there is still no DTC stored, 3. Continue troubleshooting without OBD and work through the complete Electrical check. Refer to ABS, ABS/EDL and ABS/EDL/ASR ITT Mark 20 IE, electrical check .

V.A.G 1551 print-out	Possible cause	Repair
00283
Left front ABS wheel speed sensor -G47-	Open circuit, short to positive or Ground, or loose contact in connections between left front ABS wheel speed sensor -G47- and ABS Control Module (w/EDL) -J104-	Check wiring and connections using wiring diagram Perform electrical checks. Refer to ABS, ABS/EDL and ABS/EDL/ASR ITT Mark 20 IE, electrical check
	Damaged rotor or left front ABS wheel speed sensor -G47 Left front ABS wheel speed sensor windings -G47- faulty	Check left front ABS wheel speed sensor -G47- and rotor for damage Replace rotor/speed sensor -G47-
		. Refer to 45 ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM ; Removing and installing parts of ABS system on front and rear axles
		If the malfunction occurs again:
	ABS Control Module (w/EDL) -J104- faulty	Replace ABS Control Module (w/EDL) -J104-. Refer to 45 ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM ; Hydraulic unit, brake booster/brake master cylinder - Assembly overview; Removing and installing control module and hydraulic unit

00283
Left front ABS wheel speed sensor -G47- Signal outside tolerances1)	Open circuit, short to positive or Ground, or loose contact in connections between left front ABS wheel speed sensor -G47- and ABS Control Module (w/EDL) -J104-	Check wiring and connections using wiring diagram Perform electrical checks. Refer to ABS, ABS/EDL and ABS/EDL/ASR ITT Mark 20 IE, electrical check
	Electrical interference from other sources (high frequency radiation e.g. non-insulated ignition cable)	Read measured value block. Refer to Measured value block, reading Display group number 001
	Damaged rotor or left front ABS wheel speed sensor -G47-
	Excessive air gap between left front ABS wheel speed sensor-G47- and rotor (signal not OK.)	Check left front ABS wheel speed sensor -G47- and rotor for damage Replace rotor/speed sensor. Refer to 45 ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM ; Removing and installing parts of ABS system on front and rear axles
