EPC and ABS warning lights

Recommended Posts

Dear Briskodians,

 

I have a 2002 1.4 Fabia Elegance and my Engine Management light has been on for a while. Showed it to an independent garage and they said it was down to faulty sensor and I ignored it.

 

About a week ago, ABS warning light went off and it would go away despite multiple erases using my ODB2 VAG port scanner. The fault codes are - 00526 and 00301.

 

And yesterday, to my surprise EPC warning light also went off. I have read some horror stories like power being cut off, etc., Nothing like that happened with mine, but my Cruise control wouldn't work anymore :-(. Can someone tell me if this is a serious issue or not?

 

Kind regards,

Naga

Thanks for your response. Yes, I have a fused brake light and shows up on the dashboard too, but I have ignored it for a while now.

Do you really think EPC and ABS warnings are a resultant of that??

Many thanks,

Naga

Thank you very much, bought 2 new brake lights from ECP for 60p and replaced my fused bulbs. Brake light warning disappeared from the dashboard, but EPC was still on. So, I erased it with the ODB2 tool and after a restart, it hasn't come back. Cruise control is working as normal. 

 

However, the ABS warnings still persist. Do you think it is a different all together? Thanks again for your advice.

I think you are right! Opened the over the battery fuse box and it looks like Fuse 6 is broken. Hopefully the warning light goes away after replacing it. Fuse4 looks like a spare 40A one, will try and use it. Picture attached for other Briskodians.

Will give an update after replacing it.

 

Thanks again.
