ESP light on

[davetherave]

Hi all

Recent had the ESP light on dash and cant get rid. Read on some of the threads its in relation to ABS sensor, however, the ABS is working fine. Any ideas?

Cheers

I wouldn't have thought it would be an ABS fault as the ABS light would be on on the dashboard. I could be wrong though. The ESP is made up of several individual circuits so if you have the handbook it tells you what they are in there. I would suggest checking fuses for each connected system as a starting point then start looking at sensors.

Alternatively post a VAGCOM request on here or take it to a garage.

As neilcw said above, an ABS fault would illuminate the ABS lamp. The ESP lamp indicates a fault within the ESP system. It is likely to be one of the systems sensors such as G85 (steering angle sensor), G201 (brake pressure sensor), G202 (yew rate sensor) or G200 (Lateral acceleration sender).
A fault with any of these will cause the ESP to be deactivated but should not affect the normal braking system/ABS.
