Notes for repair work on the ABS
♦ Before carrying out repair work on the anti-lock brake system,
determine the cause of the fault using „Guided Fault Finding“.
„Guided fault finding“ is carried out on the vehicle diagnosis, test‐
ing and information system -VAS 5051- .
♦ Before working on the anti-lock brake system, disconnect the
battery earth strap. Note or request radio code on vehicles with
coded radio if necessary.
♦ Before carrying out welding work with an electric welding unit,
note ⇒ General Information; Body Repairs, General Body Re‐
pairs .
♦ When working with brake fluid, observe the relevant safety
precautions and notes
♦ After work for which the brake system had to be opened, bleed
the brake system with brake filling and bleeding equipment -
VAS 5234-
♦ During the final road test, ensure that a controlled brake test
is performed at least once (pulsations must be felt at the brake
pedal).
♦ Absolute cleanliness is required when working on the anti-lock
brake system. It is not permitted to use any products which
contain mineral oil, such as oils, greases etc.
♦ Thoroughly clean all unions and the adjacent areas before
loosening. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as
brake cleanser, petrol, thinners or similar.
♦ Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover.
♦ If repairs cannot be carried out immediately, carefully cover or
seal open components. ( Sealing plugs -1 H0 698 311 A- must
be used).
♦ Only use lint-free cloths.
♦ Only unpack replacement parts immediately prior to fitting.
♦ Only use genuine packed parts.
♦ When the system is open, do not work with compressed air
and do not move the vehicle.
♦ Ensure that no brake fluid enters connectors.
♦ During painting operations, the electronic control unit can be
exposed to a maximum temperature of 95 °C for only a short
period, and to a maximum of 85 °C for longer periods (approx.
2 hours).
