ESP Won't Fully Turn Off?

Post by rs4head » Thu May 17, 2012 9:40 pm

Just noticed that I can't fully deselect ESP by holding ESP button for several seconds (worked previously). It will let me select half off mode where the symbol flashes though. If i hold for 10 seconds the light does not come on-and it then won't let me select half mode either!!! have to turn ignition off and then on again.

Anyone experienced this? I don't have any warning lights. Haven't had chance to get hooked up to Vagcom yet to check for fault codes

Was told it may be related to steering wheel angle sensor or ABS, but as I say have no warning lights on dash. Have only noticed since having a tweak to my custom map - could this be related - I was informed that isn't the case.

10 seconds may be too long. I have seen mine sometime go past the point if that akes sense and completely reactivate (i.e. normal mode) Try pressing and holding for only 5 seconds?
