1)  Reasons why the indicator lamps light up  
        
If an irregularity occurs during the self test after ignition is switched on, and the 
warning lamps -K47- and -K86- do not light up for 2 seconds, check the warning lamps;

 , carry out test steps 8 and 10. The possible causes are 
as follows:  
 Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting & Component Locations   
 Repair Manual, Electrical Equipment, Repair Group 27, Battery
   
 The battery voltage is insufficient. None of the lamps in the instrument cluster light up. 
Check the battery. 
  
  
  
  
  
X 1)   
The ABS/EDL warning light does not light up during the self-test. There is a short to 
Ground (GND) in the wiring that controls the ABS/EDL warning light between terminal 21 
of the ABS control module -J104- and the instrument cluster. This malfunction does not 
affect activation of the ABS warning light. For vehicles equipped with ASR, the traction 
control indicator lamp lights up during the self-test; "Electrical test"   page 01

1)  Reasons why the indicator lamps light up  
       
  
  
  
  
  
X1)  The vehicle is equipped with ASR:  
There is a malfunction that affects only the ASR system. The ABS and EDL systems are 
not deactivated. Check DTC memory   page 01

ASR is switched off via the traction control button. If the traction control indicator light 
does not light up in this case, check the switch and the indicator light, carry out the 
"Electrical test", steps 10 and 11   page 01

 . 
ASR is in adjustment mode. The traction control indicator light blinks 3 times per second.Short circuit to B+ in the traction control button: The traction control indicator light 
switches off five minutes after ignition is switched on. The lamp remains constantly lit after ignition is switched on, but none of the above 
mentioned conditions are true. There is a short to Ground (GND) in the wiring that 
controls the traction control indicator light between terminal 20 of the ABS control module 
-J104- and the instrument cluster. 
  
  
  
There is an irregularity present or a complaint has been made. The indicator lamps go 
on during the self-test and then go out. The possible causes are as follows:  The DTC "Brake light switch -F-" is stored in DTC memory , check DTC memory   page 01

 . 
The DTC "ABS/instrument cluster electrical connection" is stored in DTC memory , check
