Read Measuring Value Block 
(function 08) 
      The control module can transmit measured 
values. These measured values provide 
information about the operational status of the 
system and the sensors connected to it. In many 
cases the data supplied can be used to 
troubleshoot and repair malfunctions. The 
measured values from the ABS/EDL Bosch 5.3 
series are contained in four display groups, 
which can be accessed via their display group 
numbers.  
     
-  Observe safety precautions that apply to road 
tests. 
     
-  Connect the VAG1551 Scan Tool (ST) and 
select address word 03 "Brake Electronics". 
     
Notes:  
     
When the printer is switched on, the contents of 
the display will be printed out on the scan tool 
log. 
     When reading the measuring value block, also 
check wiring and connectors for loose 
terminals.

 Test table: display group 1  
Notes:  
 
Display fields 1 through 4 show the current wheel circumference speeds in km/h. These are calculated by the ABS control 
module -J104- on the basis of the signals received from the wheel speed sensors. If one of the display fields shows no 
reading, proceed as for DTCs 00283, 00285, 00287, 00290 "ABS Wheel Speed Sensor" Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) 
table 
 In order to check whether wheel speed sensors are properly allocated to each wheel, the vehicle must be raised. On 
vehicles with manual transmission put the gear shift lever in neutral. On vehicles with automatic transmission move the 
selector lever to position "N". Turn appropriate wheel by hand. Remaining drive wheels must be secured against turning. 
 When a vehicle is accelerated uniformly on a dry surface, the displayed value will increase continuously by whole 
numbers; e.g. 6 km/h, 7 km/h, 8 km/h ... . The difference between displayed values 1-4 should not be more than   1 km/h 
(error from out-of-round wheels). If the values jump, for instance from ...6km/h, 7 km/h, to 12 km/h...or if the difference 
between the displayed values is greater than   1 km/h, then check the installation of the wheel speed sensors and rotors.  Repair Manual, Brake System, Repair Group 45
