2003 3.0i E85 abs errors

Post by dfoht » Sun May 28, 2017 9:11 pm

I'm reading two ABS errors, 5E00 and 5E01. These are test and test time-out faults. I tested the pump and valves using INPA. The pump definitely works, and I did hear the inlet valves click. The two pressure switches also appear to be reading normally. Dash symptoms are the ABS light ( always on) and flashing DSC light when the brake pedal is pressed with some force.

Any ideas as to my issue?

Yes, I found those code titles as well. What can actually cause those faults?

Sorted. It's not a tyre test, it's an end of line test. The abs needs to learn the steering to roll angle.
A suitable size roundabout did the trick.
Press the brake until the DSC light flashes, drive into the roundabout in a straight line, drive briskly around the roundabout and leave at the exit you started from and the abs light will go out.
