B5 S4 Cluster Warning lights and possible meanings
Hey. I have a 1st gen a4 and am planning to upgrade to an s4. It's a 2000, 6spd. The dealership is having a mechanic come in to fix some issues the vehicle has before they are even able to sell it. i have a hold on the vehicle and am planning to pick it up this upcoming saturday. My main concern is soke of these lights on the cluster. They ran codes and it doesnt explain the solid abs light or the blinking brake light, as well as the middle has a flickering digital picture of what looks like a temp reader/thermometer of sorts. If anyone could help me, id really appreciate it. Ive been looking for an s4 i can afford and save up for about 7 months now. A buddy of mine has an 01.5 nogaro blue stage 2 and i love the car. I just need to know what could be wrong so i can fix it if their mechanic can't. Thank you

In my B5 A4, the solid ABS with flashing Brake light meant the ABS module was bad. The brakes still work, but no anti-lock feature.
If you have a coolant level warning, and there is coolant in the tank, either the sensor is disconnected, or the sensor is bad. |

The coolant level and abs are on constantly but the word brake(s) keep flashing though.. The check engine lighy was simple fixes: spark plugs and banks too lean, etc. what i dont get yhough, is why didnt the abs pop up on the code reader?
Google Ross Tech. |
And you can probably get the module fixed for about 150 instead of buying a new one.
