I just had this fault with my 2017 VW Tiguan. I pulled all four speed sensors. Measure the resistance on each sensor. Three had the same value and one had half the value. Replaced the right rear sensor that showed the low value with a OEM sensor from VW for $160.00. The was cleared. Hope this helps you.
Thanks Gerard for a clearly explained and filmed sequence. I can't do the diagnostics and repairs myself but will now be able to talk intelligently with the garage and probably prevent being taken on an expensive wild goose chase.
Described in a way that's easy to understand for the home mechanic as usual. Well done sir, very informative. Also, done without the obligatory TH-cam 10 minutes of b/s before getting to the point.
Hi All, I had this fault the morning I was going on a short holiday. The fault code suggested the rear left abs sensor was faulty. I managed to buy the sensor and thought I could get it fitted when on holiday. Not so. I drove the car for about 350 miles with this fault. Eventually, back home fortunately, the car gave transmission problems(DSG). The car remained in 1st gear, occasionally it would change up using the paddles but it was undriveable. I changed the sensor myself, cleared the codes, and all is now well! So a duff abs sensor can screw up your transmission! regards, Brian.
Thanks for this, it helped me confidentiality explain to my garage that I thought it was an issue with the wheel speed sensor, I didn’t realise the ABS sensor reads wheel speed, makes sense now I think about it, he thought it was the wheel bearings, I suggested they swap the sensors over, which is possible on my VW SV, they did and fault registered on changed position. New sensor fitted all faults cleared. Really helpful video thanks for taking the time
ABS signs pop up on my dashboard, the garage is suggesting it maybe the ABS pump without doing much checks. I will suggest checking the sensors. Hope to come back with feedback. Thanks
@@awurajjtry getting the car scanned for errors and reset fault codes. Test each wheel with an auto scanner to test each wheel indivually to trace faulty sensor.
Good video. With modern cars it can be the sensor or something else triggering the sensor so technology can be a nightmare. In my old BMW e30 none of this carry on--if there is a problem with the brakes, they start to squeal until repaired.
My VW golf MK5 2007, same happened. Steering wheel sign, abs sign and traction control sign all came together and disappeared after 30 seconds. Same as yours. I was on the motorway and my heart nearly stopped.
I’m so happy that my ESC stopped working I can actually drive my Jetta in the winter now without worrying about getting stuck if there’s a 1” of snow on a flat road.
I've had the same faults a week ago, the problem with my car was the right rear bearing of the wheel, especially the little ABS magnetic crown.It has multiple little ridges, which send a signal to the ABS sensor, but there was a piece of the crown missing, so i had to replace the whole bearing cuz they are welded together.It was not an expensive fix, only 100 euros/ little over 100 dollars.
Anybody got a part number for the WSS ? Got the exact same fault 2 days ago. It went off and then it came back on again and now off again hah. Got my MOT in 3 weeks so ideally i xan fot this myself and clear codes and check again. Passat b7 2012 . Cheers guys if anyone has a part number or link be very handy :)
Took the Passat into my local garage. They ran the diagnostics and...rear right WSS was defective. Replaced it and all was good. On my test drive I also noticed that acceleration was improved significantly.
Gerard, great and very helpful video, thank you. My 2016 VW Passat has all lights lit, ABS, Airbag, Steering, Traction, etc., and the dealer yesterday told me BOTH rear wheel sensors are bad, AT THE SAME TIME (??) Does this make sense, that both would fail simultaneously? I did not go through any water puddles or any other unusual terrain, so how likely is it that they both failed? The car is exactly ONE month past the 36 month warranty! They are quoting $565 for the replacement of both. I thought I might bring it to a "shadetree mechanic" I know, buy the parts and save$ but unsure what to do. Could you possibly tell me whether it seems plausible that both sensors failed at once? THANKS and thanks for this TH-cam video!
Going through the same thingy right now. Dealer recommended BOTH rear abs/speed sensors AND the brake master cylinder AND brake power booster. Any ideas?
@@orlandosanchez8947 I called VW North America 1-800-822-8987 To contact VW Customer CARE, please call 1-800-822-8987, or on Twitter - direct message @VW, or use #VWCares. I complained that it seemed impossible that both sensors went bad at the same time and that the mileage was low and there was no dirt etc and that the issue arose like a week after the 36 month warranty expired. VW N Amer called the dealer. I had to put a lot of pressure on the dealer, the service manager - someone who rarely ever interacts with the public. I was pleasant and yet very insistent. Theyreduced the repair cost by about 80% and completed the replacement with just the 20% I had already paid for the "diagnosis" and now it rides fine. But I am not planning to buy another VW.

Urve Pesti what a shower of robbing bass turds! I bought one Bosch sensor today for €22, roughly $25. It takes no more than 15 minutes to change. Main dealers are only good for warranty claims at a push. 😖
Hi, ive got a 2010 golf, the following lights come on my dash randomly (and then disappear pretty quick): - parking brake - abs - electronic stability control - steering light Do you have any idea what the issue might be? My VW dealer cant seem to pinpoint the issue and want to charge me $2k to replace abs control module and steering column something... pls help
Take it to a trusted mechanic and ask him to check the trouble codes, if he finds an error code on speed/abs sensor, then its the sensor that needs replacing (common problem with VW). VWs system is made in such a funny way, that when a little sensor fails, everything that feeds from the module throws out a light (in my case it was all your lights + tire pressure light). Full abs module issues are possible but very rare, and if the dealer wants to replace steering components with it, I would be very suspicious ... Also, had the same problem with my passat (lights come on randomly, for random amounts of time) - it didn't show any fault codes at all when the lights weren't showing, so try to check them when the lights ARE showing (my mechanic and I we're puzzled why these kind of codes don't store in computers memory).
Same VW Car - 2013 - same error message & fault displays showing - today 17th April 2021 - just had new disc and pads fitted - wonder if this has caused an issue with the brake sensors - will be showing them this video - I think a pint or two might be on their why to Gerard.
I just had my 2014 1.2 tsi Yeti front and rear brakes and 2 front tyres replaced. After a couple of days my dash light lit up like Blackpool illuminations 😂. ( ESC, steering, ABS, bend lights(!) , tyre pressure .... could this all be down to a sensor ?
Since last week i have multiple errors.. all come together, a few come later, the problem over 9 time’s back to the full normal situation than back again, this times stuck.. auto hold,start stop, ABS , ESP, tiers pressure monitoring, front assistance, crosse control and a few errors more which I can’t remember now.. even its shout down my back camera but its works again.. all is begins with one long loud alarm and 2 or 3 smaller alarms .. really a headache..
This happened to my 2014 Tiguan in January! Cost to replace right rear wheel speed sensor was $357.50. Just got the same warning lights yesterday so am assuming another wheel sensor has gone bad!
I replaced the sensors but I dont have the computer to reset the codes, and the dealership will charge me a leg and arm to do it but I love the video very self explanatory thanks for you time and knowledge
My car keeps switching off and gives me a multiple fault msg upon shutdown...Park brake fault, ESC fault, start stop fault, servo brake fault, loss of tyre pressure...but the dealership has placed the car on the diagnostics and no faults come up...any suggestions?
Is this a common thing? How often do we need to do this? My Sharan Mk2 has had its sensor(s) replaced once maybe 2-3 years ago and today it’s showing again.
Hi Gerard, would this issue also bring on limp mode? I say limp but pretty much stop mode really. ( VW Caddy 1.4 tsi 2016 ) Changed the actuator due to Turbo fault code, now getting water pump sensor high, throttle actuator sensor and throttle position sensor fault codes. All started with pretty much the same symptoms as in your vid. Any advise greatly appreciated please mate 👍
Hi have a vw golf 2008 the problem can. Up a few days ago. ABS LIGHT and traction light handbrake light its on the dask knock if off next day came back up. Just wondering what would if be ??? Thanks
Any ideas on our situation? VW Touran 2012. In cold temp the car won't start at all and then is throwing up the ESC fault (no others). Mechanic checked yesterday and it had a throttle pedal fault? After that was cleared it ran fine until the next morning (cold overnight again) and still no start and ESC fault. Battery is fine. No clue what to do and my mechanic doesn't seem to know either
i had " ESP Malfunction / Parkin break Malfunction / TPMS Malfunction" with my audi Q5 2010 TDI i just replace the relay 643 in the engine fuse area ; i replaced it with 645 and everything was fixed
Please help me here Sir my car did something almost similar to thistle one but mine is a polo 6 r line tsi, it did this after wheel alignment and balancing it said these errors on the dashboard: Error stabilisation control Error tyre pressure loss indicator Error start-stop system And shutted down parking lot system or sensors. But mine it just writes on the dash signals don't appear I then decided to do wheel alignment again and wheel balancing again after buying brand new tyres last year December but these Error still appear and they don't appear when the is not in motion they only appear when i drive it like a half a kilometer from rest please help me what could be the problem, your help will be much appreciated thank you 🙏 and to you fam if you have ever had a problem like mine your help will be much appreciated
Great video which my scan tool is an obd11 it's giving me an issue pretty much with all the sensors. Is there like a control module for all of them? Appreciate the video!
Thanks a ton for the how to video, cost me £14.99 for a new sensor, £10 to get the codes scanned and under an hour to fit it. As soon as I put the key fob in the faults were gone. Saved me a goddamn fortune, would have been £100's to get main agent to diagnose and fix I bet. Is it advisable to get the fualt codes cleared?
@@Biliskner No i didn't get even get any kind of quote I did it myself, I knew it would be a ridiculous price. I have a family member who works in the car parts trade so got the part cheap, but even ebay etc are pretty cheap for any of the 4 sensors. So I got a local garage to check the error codes (£10) as you need to know which one to change as they are all different of course. If you have an OBD2 scanner you can get the codes yourself. Then it's a fairly easy process to change if you have the basic tools required and don't mind getting on your back under a jacked up car. Just make sure it's secure and try to have someone else there to keep an eye out. Axle stand and jack in combination is recommended as you need to remove the wheel and will have your head right under there.....don't want it falling on you :P
I have the same problem...but...when all those amber lights are off the brak pedal is acting weird and grinding noises and can't drive over 30mph and when they are on the break works 100%.. so what is it?? thank you
I had a 2016 jetta fall into limp mode ..I was driving n then all the sudden a bunch of lights were on n flashing. It was rainy I was on a bumpy rd n couldn't figure it out. The next day I got under it n just happened to see something that looked out of place. Long story short it was the turbo actuator. That rod that will go back n forth snapped. Must have been when I hit a bad pothole. But yeah I think it was a few torque screws to get it out. I got it out n welded the rod back together nicely put it back on n wallah fixed. I felt so cool lol. I've come across a few ppl with that same issue that were just about broken down enuf that they were gonna pay a lot of cash to have a shop bullshit them n fix something that they could do themselves for damn near nothing.
My problem is this, I have a 2006 2.0tdi passat, lights on dash are steering, Esc & power steering: Ive changed EPB switch and lights still on, went for a drive and parking brake operates as it should, same with steering and brakes.... any ides please Gerard.
I’ve got a T5.1 California and the Stop/start, ABS, ESC and tyre pressure monitor all at the same time. Only thing is I don’t have a tyre pressure monitor on the van. Also I can’t turn ESC on or off the button doesn’t have a light showing where the stop/start lights up but doesn’t work anyway. Tried a code reader and no faults show so I’m a bit flummoxed..Think I will try changing the 2 rear sensors as I can’t think of anything else. Has anyone else go any ideas please.
I have the same 2013 model - same lights - but now have a red warning brake light as well. No speeds coming from either rear wheels. The mechanic says the abs rings and sensors are fine but does not know what the problem is. Do you have any ideas?
just had this exact warning batch pop up suddenly when driving on b7 passat. parked it up. then started the car again and drove it and the errors dissapeared? could it be that a pot hole or bump triggered the sensor? very strange
I had all these same lights appear on my 2012 passat 1.8tsi after I did an oil change, I'm guessing that jacking one side of the car up to get to the sump plug must have caused it
Easy to repair but, did u check why this ABS sensor is broken? The ABS ring on the bering housing is rusted and destroyed this sensor ,your brand new sensor will be broken soon again.
Hi I have the same faults but they all disappear after a 5 minute drive could that be the same issue with my vehicle a couple of mechanics said it’s the battery but after replacing battery still has same errors but only on startup as I drive they disappear
This has just happened to my 2012 VW Passat. Was very worried about it but having seen this i am hoping that it will not cost me the earth to get it fixed. Thanks very much - i owe you a beer!
So I have a 2014 VW Tiguan. I get ABS, Start Stop, bending lights, electronic break and tyre pressure warning lights on my dash! Hope it's something as simple as this.
Without having a VCDS how can you determine which sensor it has just happened to me on my rLine passat 2013. Also can these be done with the wheel still on the car or does each wheel have to come off the car
I have the same issues but with B8 passat. My blocks were all ok, but it showed that the lent just after steering wheel was bad. We changed it and still nothing. Really hoping it is not the big block down by the wheels.
Just wanted to say thanks for an excellent video. Although I’m unable to diagnose and fix the issue myself, I can now go to a VW specialist and say exactly what needs checking/replacing. I’ve had my 2012 VW Touran 1.6 SE for a month, done 3000 miles, and had this error on 90% of my journeys. The supplying dealer ‘fixed’ it within a few days of purchase, but obviously they just cleared the fault codes! Thanks 👍
I hv a VW Passat Berlina 2008. When i insert electric parking brake, yellow sign of parking brake remain appear. But break works perfectly. Display says " Parking Brake Error " and symbol remain all the time appear. Till i switch off engine. What it could be?
Great video, thanks. I have a fault on seat ibiza 2006,wherei get a 3 beep audible warning, lose speedo lose power steering, abs, power steering are on and brake light is flashing. I recently had a blow out of front passenger side tyre, destroying the rim and the tyre. I cannot see any obvious damage to wheel speed sensor, any ideas? kind regards Dave.
Thank you soo much for this video. I hope you can help me a bit further. I had an issue where my clutch wouldnt come back up.. took it to a local asian garage and they advised it was some kind of hydrolic / pump which was leaking ( i saw some the fluid) got the car next day, and these lights came up? He wouldn't have messed with the sensor right? Thanks
you're not driving a vw if you aren't driving with dash lights staring at you.
😂So true. I drove mine off the dealership floor, hit the freeway and then "Check Engine" light came on. 🤣
Don't know what vw u driving. All vw I owed has did me great service. Very reliable cars
😂😂so true

2013 VW CC Sport - The abs, parking brake, and steering light are staying on. Later the steering wheel became hard to turn. Any thoughts?
My dvanced turning lights and parking censors wont work either is that because of the acc?😢
all my lights came on after I had to practically lock the car up to stop at a red light.most our red-lights here in town have cameras, super annoying!
Surprised that replacing that sensor also fixed the start-stop and parking brake fault lights (?).

My problem is this, I have a 2006 2.0tdi passat, lights on dash are steering, Esc & power steering: Ive changed EPB switch and lights still on, went for a drive and parking brake operates as it should, same with steering and brakes.... any ides please Gerard.
I’ve got a T5.1 California and the Stop/start, ABS, ESC and tyre pressure monitor all at the same time. Only thing is I don’t have a tyre pressure monitor on the van. Also I can’t turn ESC on or off the button doesn’t have a light showing where the stop/start lights up but doesn’t work anyway. Tried a code reader and no faults show so I’m a bit flummoxed..Think I will try changing the 2 rear sensors as I can’t think of anything else. Has anyone else go any ideas please.
I have the same 2013 model - same lights - but now have a red warning brake light as well. No speeds coming from either rear wheels. The mechanic says the abs rings and sensors are fine but does not know what the problem is. Do you have any ideas?
Very helpful,(NOT being sarcastic):), followed your video, changed the abs sensor,still have lights on dash. It's it difficult to change out the ring?
just had this exact warning batch pop up suddenly when driving on b7 passat.
parked it up.
then started the car again and drove it and the errors dissapeared?
could it be that a pot hole or bump triggered the sensor?
very strange
this error started showing up on my 2009 rabbit, can't take it in right away to get it fixed.Do you think it's safe to drive with bad censors?
Manny M yes
I had all these same lights appear on my 2012 passat 1.8tsi after I did an oil change, I'm guessing that jacking one side of the car up to get to the sump plug must have caused it
Easy to repair but, did u check why this ABS sensor is broken? The ABS ring on the bering housing is rusted and destroyed this sensor ,your brand new sensor will be broken soon again.
I have a VW CC 2012 and all those sign are on, can I still week it for a couple of days before I fix it?
Hi I have the same faults but they all disappear after a 5 minute drive could that be the same issue with my vehicle a couple of mechanics said it’s the battery but after replacing battery still has same errors but only on startup as I drive they disappear
Hi my vw passat is showing esc fault. And wont start would this be the same problem you had? Thanks.
Gerald, can ABS issue lead to the wobbly steering?
Thanks very much Gerard. This is exactly the problem I have and I can now go and find a solution armed with this knowledge.
I've the same lights on my 2013 passat but I've the tpms light on aswel, could this still be the same issue @gerard burke
This has just happened to my 2012 VW Passat. Was very worried about it but having seen this i am hoping that it will not cost me the earth to get it fixed. Thanks very much - i owe you a beer!
Hi! Did you fixed it? It was that? I have the same problem with my 2012 passat
If my engine temperature is not showing an reading after replacing the temperature sensor, what could be the problem
So I have a 2014 VW Tiguan. I get ABS, Start Stop, bending lights, electronic break and tyre pressure warning lights on my dash! Hope it's something as simple as this.
Same error messages I'm having on my 2013 VW CC
How did you fixed it I have a 2015 Tiguan? With all the light on
Same issue on 14 Mk7 Golf
Same issue for me - Passat rline 2015
Mechanic has told me it's coming back as a problem with my ABS Pump/Module. Turns out this can be quite expensive. 😩
Nice! Thanks this may help me explain to the mechanic what I think could be wrong with my VW Touran
Is it ok to drive for awhile with this fault?.... Light on on ours and wondering does it affect braking or handling?...
Without having a VCDS how can you determine which sensor it has just happened to me on my rLine passat 2013. Also can these be done with the wheel still on the car or does each wheel have to come off the car
I was jet washing under the wheel
Arches yesterday could this chase this problem. I hate my Tiguan 😆
Impressive workhorse (163.000 km). Glad you could fix it. Many more km's to come for that car, I am sure :-)
Thanks kent
Got similar warning lights on 141 superb. Interesting.
Just bought a sharan. I wasn't even half an hour down the road and these lights came on.
So by fixing that it made the power steering malfunction light go off ??
Hi please help my Audi A4 is showing that power steering light and the steering is hard
Thanks, i know now what to do. Great help! Even in 2024!
well .. if you own a vw, must own vcds )) Im sold
great video btw !!!
I have the same issues but with B8 passat. My blocks were all ok, but it showed that the lent just after steering wheel was bad. We changed it and still nothing. Really hoping it is not the big block down by the wheels.
how close the sensor must be to the ring on bearing? i have a 2 mm far and no reading
Good question i was wondering the same thing.
can somebody tell if the car was starting with these faults? mine is not starting
what problem car. Button for driver assistant systrm defective and not start car
Help me
How do you set the consumption and the small clock for the speed below and all that in km/h?
Not bad information, but took way longer than needed to get the point across.
Just wanted to say thanks for an excellent video. Although I’m unable to diagnose and fix the issue myself, I can now go to a VW specialist and say exactly what needs checking/replacing.
I’ve had my 2012 VW Touran 1.6 SE for a month, done 3000 miles, and had this error on 90% of my journeys.
The supplying dealer ‘fixed’ it within a few days of purchase, but obviously they just cleared the fault codes!
Thanks 👍
What do you mean with fault codes? All those errors started to appear on my dashboard since i changed my android player.
Ive got all these now ive cleaned the front to sensor is it worth cleaning the rear still got lights coming on
I hv a VW Passat Berlina 2008. When i insert electric parking brake, yellow sign of parking brake remain appear. But break works perfectly. Display says " Parking Brake Error " and symbol remain all the time appear. Till i switch off engine.
What it could be?
Great video, thanks. I have a fault on seat ibiza 2006,wherei get a 3 beep audible warning, lose speedo lose power steering, abs, power steering are on and brake light is flashing. I recently had a blow out of front passenger side tyre, destroying the rim and the tyre. I cannot see any obvious damage to wheel speed sensor, any ideas? kind regards Dave.
I have the exact same scenario on my 2012 golf
Very well described. But the wheel sensor is so easy and cheap to replace. I would just do that first
What is the diagnosis programmer and software are you using
0
Thank you soo much for this video.
I hope you can help me a bit further.
I had an issue where my clutch wouldnt come back up.. took it to a local asian garage and they advised it was some kind of hydrolic / pump which was leaking ( i saw some the fluid) got the car next day, and these lights came up? He wouldn't have messed with the sensor right? Thanks
Sounds like the slave cylinder
Same happened to me in my jetta Gli
Having this issue with my 2012 VW golf days stabilizer fault car is in park but p is blinking and car won’t start at all, could this be the same?
Where are the front wheel sensors located? I cannot find them.
my rear sensor won't come out xD
its a two diffrents faults 😂 check twice ;)
Very helpful, thanks very much.
Weirdly I do not have a single fault code with all these dash lights
The same problem with vw cc 2013
