VW Passat Multiple Dash Warning Lights
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- When the lights on the dash start to flash, you know you have problems. But when you have multiple lights and warnings - you know you are in trouble. Is it just one fault or a series of faults?
This VW Passat has warnings left, right and centre!
Where to begin?

Your presentation is very easy going and makes the video very easy to watch, excellent troubleshooting. Highlights the complexity of modern vehicles that may present major issues as the vehicles age.
You are right Colin. It is getting tougher to be a quality technician. I do courses at least once a fortnight, either face to face or online.
The complexities of the systems we have to deal with and even software issues can be a real challenge.
Thanks for your comment 😁
Great video mate, methodically manoeuvred through that fault 💪🎉💪 another fix added to the library 📚📖📙
Thanks Buddy. It took a while to scratch the old gray matter, but got there in the end. 😉
@@MiracleMAX 😁 That's all that mattes 😄
It's amazing how a lot of those "advanced" functions depend on the humble wheel speed sensors. Good to know that they now detect direction of wheel rotation. That little laugh you gave before tricking the ABS unit by swapping wires around 🤓.
Thanks.
The vehicles and technology are getting more and more complex, so we have to be trained to be able to diagnose and repair these advanced systems.
Thanks for your comments 😉
Great diagnostic process Mark!
Thanks Rob, a great complement coming from you! 😁
Thanks so much for the video. This kind of info can save much heartache and $$. My Jetta just started having all the lights coming on. Could be a broken wire as well. Thought that was a malfunction since the car has been very dependable the past 2 years.
Yes, keep in mind mice. Here is Australia we are constantly battling the little blighters!
Follow the testing procedures in the video and you should be able to diagnose the fault. Fault codes will be a real guide.👍
I have the same problem on my 2017 Jetta. It's an intermittent problem lasts a couple of months then off for a year, then on again. Since new, never addressed the issue. Car runs perfect.
@@MrJoeairman2000 These did have ABS module issues. However, as yours is intermittent, it could also be a wiring issue as well, like shown in the video.
Hi I’ve just bought a 2016 mk7 golf the whole dashboard is lit up it does have one spare tire and in the rear left and also the tire is popped on the left front , I’m hoping it’s something to do with this as I’ve seen this quite frequently on forums , every single light is on , I’m taking quite a gamble but dyu reckon it could be caused by these sensors aswell ?
And there isn’t any visible damage to do with any airbags or anything as this car is from an auction and has been verified to be an insurance right off I hope u could help guide me in the right way if it is 🙏
Are there any codes? Have you tested the wheel speed sensors in live data, like shown in the video?
You not a new subscriber, excellent diagnosis and clear explanation using process of elimination A+
Thank you. I hope you get some benefit from other videos on the channel 😉
Driving home today my Passat B7 said lane assist gone, ABS gone, power steering fault, tyre pressure sensor gone. Car runs perfectly fine and all those systems work, but very worrying seeing 5 or 6 faults appear on the car while you're cruising down the motorway. I'm hoping it's a similar fault because no way are all those systems broken simultaneously and yet still work.
Hopefully it's something this simple. Mice can create havoc
@@MiracleMAXi’m having this exact problem, mk6 gti rats chewed my wires 😓
@@Jyricz They seem to love the taste of soy!
It just happend to me thats why came here any idea what was it
I’ve got the exact same errors, did you solve it?
I’m suspecting a battery, its at 12.5V right after the drive, which is on the lower level for AGM batteries
Interesting and enjoyable. Thx MM.
Glad you enjoyed it! 😁
My mk6 GTI has a Christmas dashboard and I suspect it’s an issue with the sensor as well. Electrical stuff is kinda scary for me.
If it is not in your skillset, it might be best to take it to a competent mechanic/auto electrician.
Let us know what you find
Vw sharan has similar issues.the multiple warning lights will come when turn right side.what is this actual problem?
Did you carry out the tests shown in the video?
Sup man I have a problem with 2.0t gti I hage the abs traction tire and airbag light all on I used a obd2 scanner but it says no codes popped up
Generally speaking, an OBD2 scanner will not pick up anything that are not emissions related fault codes. You may need a decent scanner to find the relevant fault codes. What testing have you done so far?
@@MiracleMAX when my friend scanned the first time I had some fault codes witch were. Tpms , right front speed sensor , break light switch , I replaced the speed sensor did nothing but is it better to get oem then aftermarket ones sensors ?
@@Alexis-mk6 So was the speed sensor tested? Could you see it change in live data when the wheel was turned? Was there any mice damage? Is the brake light sensor working correctly? Can you see the change on the scan tool?
@@MiracleMAX well I didn’t test the sensor and their was no mice damage and break light switch idk all my break lights work when we scanned the car it says no codes were found but the lights were still thier at first the lights did go away and the next day they came back it also could be I got a aftermarket one instead of oem but idk I might get an oem one and if that didn’t fix it might have to take it to a vw dealer might cost me a arm and a leg
@@Alexis-mk6 You don't need to take it to a dealer, just a reputable workshop. You need proper testing equipment & logically go through a diagnostic process. Aftermarket parts in some cases have been known to cause issues, but you would possibly need an oscilloscope to accurately test it.
Pretty good condition ... for a BMW.
Sorry, I don't get it.......it's a VW
Hi mate, I’ve just recently changed my handbrake module on my Passat b6, 1.9 due to my handbrake not working. Once all finished by the mechanic my abs, glow plugs and traction control lights have appeared to show on the dashboard. I’ve said to the mechanic what he done but he said that he has done nothing, can you help me out?
Why was the module replaced? Has it been programmed? Have all powers and grounds been tested? Have the wheel speed sensors been tested?
@@MiracleMAX tbh mate, I highly doubt it, I had no idea that needs to be done when changing the handbrake module
@@MiracleMAX the guy said change the caliper but it didn’t fix the problem then he said to change the handbrake module because it was damage by liquid/water
@@Endri2044 I don't know for sure if that particular one needs to be programmed, but certainly worth checking
@@Endri2044 If it has had water egress, you have to consider what damage may have been done to other components.
I have a cc 2013 and lights also go crazy but my car also will not start
Have you tested the battery? What fault codes do you have? What testing have you done so far?
Where was that wire at? I have a cc my dash looks the same
Hey Nick,
The video shows the wire damaged on the wheel speed sensor loom coming back toward the front of the vehicle. Since this was mice damage, it would be very unusual to find it in the same spot.

Let us know what you find 😉
@@MiracleMAX I understand, thanks 👍
I have same issue. Can the reasen be the alternator ?
What tests have you done on the alternator and what is the battery condition? What makes you think it could be the alternator? What fault codes do you have?
@@MiracleMAXthis happened to me 7 months ago. I changed the old battery and that was gone. Now , first airbag light and then the other lights are om dash. Not only i see lights , central lock system is off , gearbox is gone , steering wheel is heavy and even handbrake is out of use.
Now i dont believe the battery is gone again in 7 months. I think it is alternator or voltage sensor.
@@cemoktem5048 What fault codes do you have?
Good stuff. Those sensors fail all the time.
Yes, but in this case it was mouse injection into the wire 😁
Here from tafe 😊
Hey Bud, welcome aboard! 😉
