SST : 09843-18040





(2) Turn the ignition switch on (IG).

(3) Observe the blinking pattern of the ABS warning and SLIP indicator lights and/or read the multi-information display (models with multi-information display) in order to identify the DTC.

HINT

(4) Count the number of blinks of the ABS warning and SLIP indicator lights.

HINT
* How to read DTCs:
* Diagnostic trouble codes are represented by the number of blinks of a warning light. For example, code 21 would be shown by 2 blinks, a pause of 1.5 seconds, and then 1 blink.
* If one code is detected:
* The light repeats the same code after a pause of 4 seconds.
* If multiple codes are detected:
* The light outputs one code after another with a 2.5-second pause between each code. When all codes have been output, there is a 4-second pause and then the light begins to output the codes again.

(5) Check the details of the DTCs Vehicle Stability Control System (for BOSCH Made).
