Hi

Got this vehilce in with a warning light coming on dash saying Please Check Tyre Pressure, and also ABS Light Flashing with Red Brake Warning Light in Center of the dash.

Scanned into all module and found NO any fault codes not even in ABS system nor in Steering Assist.

Checked all Tyre Pressure and found all OK.

Any idea how to reset Tyre Pressure Warning Light  Huh

I think the ABS light might be becuse of the Tyre Pressure warning but, any idea's are welcome.

Oh yes just to Add the Engine code is AXW its FSI engine.

Thanks

Hi,
the Tyre pressure monitoring on this is monitored by the ABS wheel speed sensors.

To reset - Switch the ignition on & press the third button to the left of the Hazard Switch,(it has the logo of a tyres cross section with an exclamation mark in it).
Hold the button until it beeps, (this puts the system in learn mode) release the button & take the car for a test drive - this should reset it.

Well, you've got me there Ashraf,

you should have 3 x switches to the left of the Hazard Switch - 1st one, passenger airbag indicator.

2nd one - ESP.

3rd one - Tyre Pressure Monitoring.

Erwin ETOS & AD all list the same location. & reset procedure is the same in AD & Erwin.

Any one got an update on this then Undecided

It may be worth looking in the dash menu,

The A4 has it in there??

Instructions - press the reset button on the wiper stalk, select tyre pressure monitoring system - select store tyre pressure.

Jon

Also, did you select ABS individually in VCDS & read the fault memory??

Sometimes when autoscanning VCDS misses out the ABS Controller.
