01119 - Gear Recognition Signal - in ABS??
Hi all,
As sod's law would have it I sold my car on Sunday and it was going to be picked up yesterday so it decided to throw the check engine light in a huff!!! The code is 01119 - Gear Recognition Signal and stored in the ABS menu. I've only checked it on my basic vag-com scanner so don't have the full details but will be checking it with an Autel later that should give the full break down. From what I've read it could be related to having the CV boot changed last week and perhaps the ABS sensor line is damaged or there is grease on the abs tone ring. I took the sensor out and cleaned it up but the code eventually came back. Always seems to take about 40-50 miles before it throws the CEL. Ill get the disc off and give the ring a check/clean tomorrow. Also going to get a working ABS sensor in case. Also folk have mentioned on the web that it could be related to the F125 (is it?) switch on the gearbox that checks the switch on the gearstick. All gears seem to be operating fine on auto/tip/steering wheel. Some folk mention it being related to the reverse gear hub breaking in the gearbox. Reverse works fine. Generally seems to change gear as it did before the error came up. Real stumper this as the car drives absolutely fine. No gearbox or abs issues noticable at all. If anyone has any ideas on this one the beer is on me!! Cheers John |
