Passat (B5) :: ABS / Brake And TC Light Combined With A Big STOP In Display And Brake Failure

I had the light and sound show pop up on the display of my 00 2.8 wagon this week. The ABS light, the brake light and occasionally the TC light combined with a big STOP in the display and Brake Failure.

I took it to my local and he did a quick scan and the ABS computer isn't communicating, indicating it's fried.

Ford 7.3L Power Stroke (1999-2003) :: Parking Brake Light Doesn't On - Replace Brake Sensor?

I just had a remote start installed with a turbo timer that works off of the parking brake being engaged. No matter how hard I press it the light does not go on, however when the installer probed the sensor to ground it, it worked fine.What part this is that needs to be replaced. The stealership quoted me at 200 something for a whole parking brake assembly.

Passat (B5) :: 2001 - ABS Light On / Brake Light Flashing Saying Stop Service Manual

2001 01 1.8t... Hoping this isn't a bad ABS module. When I bought the car, I was told it was a bad wheel sensor in the drivers side. But, the funny part about this is its not on all the time, sometimes it doesn't even come on and the dash is normal.

Passat (B5) :: Rear Parking Light Went Out, But Brake Light Works

Recently purchased a 2001.5 Passat, and of course got the mod itch... started with an Neuspeed ECU flash & DV, along with K&N... and now I'm in the process of suspension & exhaust... Unfortunately the past week, I was told that I had a tail light out.... Upper Rear Passenger Side Parking/Brake Light.... So I figure, hit up the parts store, grab a new bulb, and I'll be set...

Well, come to find out that it's not the bulb....

The light works when I brake, so 1/2 of the bulb is good... but the parking lights won't come on that side, but on the driver side everything is good..... even with the new bulbs..(replaced both on that side[passenger] just to be sure.)

So, just out of curiosity, I took one of the old bulbs that I thought was shot, and put it in the drivers side, and what do you know... it worked flawlessly on that side...

So, I'm led to believe I have a short... or a wiring problem somewhere... but I can't see how this could have just happened without really messing with anything... I mean, I disabled the DRL's.... but I even undid that(small piece of tape covering the B prong)... just to make sure..

Passat (B5) :: ABS Light Solid And Brake Light Blinking

Since i have owned my car the brake and ABS lights have been on (bought it like 2 months ago) i have a solid ABS light, and as long as the ebrake is down the brake light blinks.

Through searching I found that i most likely have a bad abs module. Before I take it out and send it to get repaired, i was wondering if there is anything else that i could check.

I also used VAGCOM to try and talk to the brakes and there is no response from the controller.

Elantra XD (2001-06) :: 2003 - Left Tail Light Works But Brake Light Is Out

My daughter has a 2003 Elantra. The left tail light works but the brake light is out. I opened the trunk and removed the two screws for the cover and found the wire going through a rubber plug. Upon removing the plug, more wires and no bulb.

How do I get to the bulb? There appear to be three screws and bolts, one on each corner, holing the tail light in place. On the fourth corner is just a rubber-looking plug. Do I have to take the assembly out to change bulbs or am I missing something?

Passat (B6) :: 3rd Brake Light Is Out

My 3rd brake light is out (the one at the top of the rear window) on my Passat. Is this a wear and tare item that I would need to replace like a bulb or is this something that my warranty would could cover and the dealer will fix? My damn state inspection won't pass without it working

Passat (B5) :: ABS / Brake Light Came On

I have seen some posts on here, ran VAG (which showed codes for connections from ABS module as issue). Troubleshoot brake light switch (not the issue). Dealer says ABS Pump and module are more than likely at fault, and both need to be replaced as they affect each other. I have heard just the module can be replaced. Any thoughts on this? Dealer also said codes wont be thrown for just bad connections.

Passat (B5) :: 2002 GLX - ABS / Brake Light Is Off

I bought a 2002 passat glx auto with the abs/brake light malfunction. So I replaced the abs module with a part from a 2001 passat 1.8t manual, the numbers matched exactly. The abs/brake light is off, my question is that since mine is an automatic and the part was from a manual, do I need to recode the abs if the lights are not on?

Passat (B6) :: 3rd Brake Light Isn't Working

I noticed my 3rd. brake light is not working. I never see the car driving down the road. My wife was just behind me and noticed so how long it has been this way. Can it burn out I thought it was LCD? does it have it's own fuse? My owners manual is at home. I will have to look into it, the dealer could not give me much info other than to bring it in.

Passat (B6) :: Brake Pad Warning Light Comes On And Off

I've had the brake pad warning light intermittently come on and off in the last week. I took the front left wheel off and had a quick look and there is still 10mm of pad on the outer, also the connection going to the pad seems to be fine.

Is this warning light just an over precaution from VW and I still have plenty of meat left on my brake pads and km's, or should I thoroughly check them all or take it to the mechanic to be on the safe side.
