    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.

      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.

    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 ?

    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.

    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.

    Had this happen on my Skoda Superb III (2016). Local garage suspected a wheel sensor, but after taking it for a spin, and doing a reset(?) the problem appeared to disappear. They told me to bring it back as soon as it went again (in the expectation that it'd last a day or two at most). That was 2 months ago and it's still working fine. Weird.

    • @MiracleMAX
      @MiracleMAX  2 місяці тому +1

      Wheel speed sensors can be very sensitive. Could have been a stone caught in the tone wheel, build up of rust, damaged wire - the list goes on. If it is a faulty sensor, given time, no doubt the code will come back.

    I had all dashboad lights lid up while i was driving. Engine was fine, But everything dashboard malfunctioned After roughly 15-30 sec of telling me everything was out of order the dashboard went completely dark. I had to drive the car over to a bus lane to see if restarting Would fix the issue, But now the car wouldnt recognise the key. I had it towed to workshop, But after 15 hours of Working on the car the mechanic told me he Didnt Want to keep going. All I know is he had an Insane amount of "databus" errors, and it looked familier to What u showed on this UA-cam vid.
    Do you have any clue What I Should do?

      What testing has been done so far? What fault codes were logged? Did they check for CANBUS communication with an oscilloscope? Did they check for rodent damage of wires? Do all modules have voltage and grounds tested using a load?
