    Update The auto electrician has confirmed that there's an electrical fault in the ABS/VSA unit and BBA Reman (via UPS) are collecting it on Monday for (another) repair under warranty. I'll post again when/if it's resolved.

    VSA, ABS, Brake indicator on with code 81-1

    The VSA, ABS & Brake System Indicator light came on in my 7th gen 2.2 cdti. Switched off and on and they went away. The next time I used the car the lights came on again and wouldn't clear. Testing with the ODB socket pins 4 & 9 connected gave B1170 with I think is Gauge control module lost...

    self diagnostic codes
