ABS fuel pump needed for VR6 - any suggestions ?

[Helen Fountain 10]

MY Vr6 has failed its MOT due to ABS warning light on. Garage think it needs an ABS fuel pump replacement to sort this out but can't get the part. Does anyone know where I can get this part ? Message me or call Chris at Greenfleet garage on 02476673066 Many thanks Helen

normally the first thing to check is the abs warning sensors on each wheel. if he doesn't have vagcom you can check them by unplugging them and put a volt metre across them to check their resistance. if you get 4 constant readings within tolerances their all okay.. if one of the three is totally different its the one that needs changing.

 

for parts try.... vwspares.co.uk or vwheritage or eurocarparts or if the parts not obsolete and your feeling rich try your local vwdealer.

 

if you search "corrado abs sensor" on ebay you will see what i'm talking about to check first

As already mentioned, have the ABS system scanned on a diagnostic computer which will pinpoint the problem. The diagnostic port is directly in front of the gear lever, underneath the leather gear lever gaiter. A faulty wheel sensor is the most common problem.

make sure it's not the wheel sensors first.

Could also be the abs ecu, if water is leaking in somewhere. Don't rush into replacing any parts without a diagnostic scan of the abs (you may as well have a full diagnostic scan while you're on, there should be no difference in cost). I found on mine that water had been leaking on to the abs ecu and thought it would need replacing, but after tipping the water out out of it and letting it dry out I think it's okay!
