I didn't get anything, I actually acidently click over onto start whilst the car was running and we all know what that sounds like (Rough)?

Just got the ABS light after a 40 min drive and here are the codes I got:

A3= 141 & 142
(141= Pedal signal faulty - shorted to ground)
(142= Stop lamp switch faulty)

A6=314
(314= Camshaft Position sensor signal missing or faulty)


Any clues anyone?

Thanks

do your brake lights work properly when you are getting the codes?

If so then I would guess at the ignition barrel or ABS unit. If not then change the brake light switch.

My housemates polo showed engine fault and went to limp home mode because the brake lighs were stuck on!!

Thanks for that, (Excellent write up)
As there are no photos I don't know what I am looking at or where to start?

Maybe an e-mail to the webmaster (at the bottom of the web page)

The site has move host so some links may want fixing.

The unit that needs fixing is on the brake servo.

No reply from the email I sent...

Is there a possibility I could get something from eBay to fix my problem?

I desperatly want to do this (ABS 141/142 pedal position switch repair) but I mostly need the photos. I am clueless?
