    Steering angle sensor

    I am second generation out of southern Germany on both sides. Fortunately for me my parents moved out of the German community they grew up in and settled in So Cal. As a result I grew up with minimal German influence, A fact I thank God for more and more the longer I live. The short story on the...

    Steering angle sensor

    I have a 00778 steering angle sensor code. Very long story but I disconnected the steering when I dropped out the K member and apparently got the steering shaft out of time. For the life of me I cannot find how to get to the place on my ross-tech that shows the sensor position so I can pull the...

    Replace ABS module

    Got my certificates and completed the registration. All is well. Even though the module did not set any codes the VCDS did point me in the right direction to diagnose the problem. It did require some old school search and diagnosis though. The VCDS seems to be invaluable in diagnosing anything...

    Replace ABS module

    Yes you just need to go beyond the instructions and ferret it out. We will find out Friday at 1:00 if I get my brake and light certificate, If so hopefully all will be well for a while.

    Replace ABS module

    The up down keys only toggle between 1 and 2. However if you go to the drop down menu and click on steering angle sensor? it takes you to 60. Once I got past that and fumbled my way through the rest of the directions (which are also not totally accurate) all the lights on the dash except for the...

    Replace ABS module

    The autoscan was with the old module connected. The present codes are 00778 and 005. I tried cancelling them before the auto scan and they instantly reappeared. They are the only codes I am aware of unless you see something I don't. As for copying the coding that is my problem. I do not know...

    Replace ABS module

    I am trying to get a 2007 Beetle on the road for my granddaughter. I needed a brake and light inspection and there were no codes and everything passed until the technician pulled the cart up to the office and when he stopped the ABS module triggered momentarily so he failed it. I connected the...
