Mattf1000 Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 HELP!!! I have just bought an 05 plate A6 tdi 130. I had an issue with the hazards and indicators staying on. I discovered the scuttle panel issue that was full of water which I have cured. And the ccu that was full of water and corroded. I have cleaned and dryed out. Indicators now working hurrah. Now the esp and brake warning and a glow plug flashing light on the dashboard have appeared. I have had the code read and it says implausible break switch and no brake lights. Will changing the switch cure it. Or will it need the fault code clearing. Or is it something to do with the ccu still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Hi...and welcome to the Forum It is common for brake light switches to fail on Audi's and VW's. I believe you may have two different switches on the pedal, one for the brake lights and one to throw a signal to the ECU to show the brakes have been applied. For what they cost, maybe replace both? Let us know how you get on with it Cheers Trevor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattf1000 Posted December 15, 2016 Author Share Posted December 15, 2016 I've sorted the brake light issue. And all the electrics seem to be working apart from the key fob. It's still pouring water into the passenger footwell. It's getting very frustrating as I can't see where it's coming in. I've removed the drain grommets in the scuttle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Blocked drain tubes usually responsible for scuttle flooding, but removing the bungs should sort it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
