Car run great the only issue is the dashboard brake light is flashing randomly. ...Finally, the instrument cluster is hardwired to the ABS module, ... Also,i change the parking brake switch and the light goes on & off less frequent.
May 3, 2009 - What does ABS flashing light mean at the dashboard of my 1996 ... just hard enough to skid a tiny but, then back off a hair to stop skidding.
abs not going to be the cause...possible passlock security system problem....does the security light flash rapidly when it wont start? it is common for the security system to act up on these vehicles
check make sure alternator charging battery if alternator fails volts out put 11.0 volts that will set off abs light, if alternator okay have vechicle abs brake system scanned at the volkswagon dealership.if abs light flashing while in motion could have faulty wheel speed sensor.
I just had the same exact problem. The ABS light was on constanly, and the 4x4 high light flashes about 8 times, turns off for about 2-5 minutes, then flashes again for another 8 times and keeps repeating. In addition, I was also hearing and feeling a grinding and clunking noise going in reverse, and the steering wheel was difficult to turn. I changed a bad hub assembly on the front driver side and everything went away...fixed! I wouldn't let anybody tell me that the ABS system and the 4x4 system are not linked together. In fact, my local Ford service department assured me that I had two separate issues. Well, I only had one issue and it was a bad ABS sensor. I hope my exprience helps you.
I HAVE SEEN A BAD BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH CAUSE THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS TO COME ON.BUT TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP.BECAUSE YOU COULD BE HAVING BRAKE FAILURE THE.ABS BRAKES MAY NOT BE WORKING.LET THE GARAGE OR DEALERSHIP SCAN IT. AND FIX.
