Hi, Just about to take the car for its MOT when the ABS light came on. Got an old ELM327 connector but kept getting (no response from controller" message. Bought a VAG KKL for 409.1 connector now and getting same message on both VCDS lite and 409-1. Oddly enough can see data using SCANTOOL.net but only any use for some engine codes, not ABS. Any help/advice more than welcome as the boss lady is now getting a bit hacked off having no shopping trolley! Thanks
 
I'm in Hamilton if it's any use to you (and have VCDS lite registered).
Hi, thanks for that but no MOT and car off the road now. As soon as the wind/rain/sleet etc stop I'll root around the ABS wiring as I think it might have chafed when taping up the usual rubbed hose for the air intake/ MAP and/or crankcase breather side of things. Cheers.
 
Gave up and took it to a local garage. Was the ABS sensor beside a failing wheel bearing - assume grease leaked out and messed up the sensor. My radio has packed up now - Audi Concert CD thingie but not getting the 1000 to put in the code, just showing a 1 in themiddle of the display. Think the garage has mucked it about, maybe with the OBD scanner, so it'll be going back.
Apart from a couple of advisories, it sailed thru the MOT, not bad for a 19yr+ old car!
