ToJo Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Hi all,Braked a bit hard at a roundabout this evening in my Lupo sport and abs kicked in like normal then decided to stop working and wheels locked up.straight after i stopped braking the abs light came on,I have a friend has VAGCOM but won't be able to see him until the new year,Just want to know if there's a common problem or maybe blown fuse to look for before I take it in for Diagnostics?Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
