SOURCE: esp dashboard warning light is constantly on... TT quatro 2002

warning lights are usually got to do with the electronics in the carm so you should go to a mechanic and ask him to check the cars electronics which is free and he will probably say your electronic wiring is smashed the cheapest thing to do is rewire your car it would cost 100-250 euro where as if you got the car comprimised it would cost 700-900 euro

SOURCE: 2002 Audi A4 Esp Light comes on, car turns off when I have to sto

I had the same issue with my '05 A4 1.8T.  Turns out it was the RPM sensor.  Audi tried to tell me it was teh fuel pump and the cam-shaft positioning sensor.  Paid for teh fuel pump replacement and it died 6 blocks from the dealership.  Then they replaced the RPM snesor, works great now... Except it's still an Audi.

SOURCE: Engine management light come on on an audi tt 2001

Really need the codes when the light comes on. Stop by advanced auto parts and have them read it, or buy a $50 tool. Will save you hundreds with an Audi.
Most likely is MAF sensor. Not as scary as sounds, and you may be able to fix it your self if you can twist a screwdriver.
Are you getting any coolant warnings?

SOURCE: light come on saying esp on my dash whats does it mean

traction control
The "ESP" system helps correct oversteer and understeer by breaking the inner or outer wheel as needed to get the car back on a straight path.
lets you spin tires

My ESP light does not illuminate at all,VAGCOM says steering angle sensor permanent,no or incorrect setting,would this cause the light to not work ? Audi TT 1999

Yes, the steering angle needs to be reset and esp should function properly again assuming there isn't an existing problem like a bent tie rod.

How to shut off the EPC

If you mean ESP, or Audi's traction control, then follow this link:

http://www.audiforums.com/forum/audi-tt-7/esp-light-wont-turn-off-81683/

If you mean EPC, then sorry, I cannot help you there.

I recommend asking this question at an Audi forum or searching for the answer in their archives.

My ESP light comes on and off while i am driving AUDI A4 2001 model. Please assist

The ESP system means the Electronic Stability Program. If the ESP lights on the dashboard permanently the ESP system is faulty. You must access the ESP Electronic Control Unit (ECU) memory for pull out all DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Codes), using diagnostic equipment connected to the data link connector of the car. Then you will be full informed about bad pieces (e.g.: front right wheel abs sensor interrupted, ...). After bad pieces replacement you will be able to erase all faults memored by ESP ECU, in other words reset the ESP system and turn off the warning lamp on dashboard.

ABS and ESP lights on all the time. I bought Audi A4 B6 2004 only two months ago. It started in heavy rain.

The ESP system means the Electronic Stability Program. If the ESP & ABS lights on the dashboard permanently the ESP & ABS system is faulty. You must access the ESP & ABS Electronic Control Unit (ECU) memory for pull out all DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Codes), using diagnostic equipment connected to the data link connector of the car (placed in dashboard, under a plastic cover above the ashtray). Then you will be full informed about bad pieces (e.g.: front right wheel abs sensor interrupted, ...). After bad pieces replacement you will be able to erase all faults memored by ESP & ABS ECU, in other words reset the ESP & ABS system and turn off the warning lamp on dashboard.

What does the ESP button do on the Audi A3?

ESP means Electronic Stability Program. When piloting an Audi TT if you enter a corner too fast for road conditions (wet or snow or mud) and suddenly let off the gas to slow yourself down (which is what most people do) you will experince oversteer. This simply means the back end of the car will slid out and point the car sharply into the corner as the front end trys to swap places with the rear end. ESP will try to save you by electronically applying individual brakes to individual wheels to get the TT pointing the right way. ----------- This will help.Thanks.Helpmech.

AUDI TT Dashboard problem with RPM

that is a common problem with all pre 06 audi tt dashboard clusters. You need to contact audi customer support in your country, (NOT tHE DEALERS) and tell them that the problem is a common fault and you want a free replacement. They will do it. They did it for me in 2009.

2000 Audi TT exclamation mark service light came on. Possible reason?

The light you are referring to is your ESP light. You should have a button above the radio that reads "ESP" Electronic Stability Program is what it stands for.. its your traction control. It is somehow directly tied into the MAF and if the MAF goes it turns off.
ESP, electronic stability control, keeps the car going where
you steer it. You might have a dirty ABS wheel sensor. Not always will the MAF trigger a CEL. But it can and will turn on the ESP light if its not functioning or plugged in. MAF can range from $80-$120 and Is easy to replace yourself. It is right next to the airbox.
