Anyone know what this means.

Hasn’t found the label file for your ABS controller.

Might be an issue with your VCDS installation.

Try updating to latest version after uninstalling the one you’ve got.

Cheers Ben. Will give it a go and report back.

Are you using a genuine Rosstech cable? I've had communication errors like that in the past when using a cheap Chinese cable.

At £450 it better be a genuine cable.

Hpsauce. Last year my wife was “tidying up” and my unlimited vins cable went missing.
So I bought a new one.
Some time later the cable re appeared.
So I sold it on here.
But yes mate. It is a genuine unlimited vins cable and I am using the latest software release 24.5.

Recently had a brake fluid change. Also had new discs and pads fitted all round.So I don’t know if that has anything to do with it.

VCDS uninstalled then reloaded.
Same problem exists
Brakes not recognised.

Have you installed or updated your antivirus recently? Try installing your AV and/or firewall and seeing if you can connect then. Obvs don't use your laptop on the internet without those things running.

If I go into control module then select abs brakes the brakes are recognised.

Sounds like the autoscan settings are off then. Maybe you've checked or unchecked an option. Since you have a genuine cable, you can contact VCDS support on their forum, too.

Whenever updating a version of anything it's always worth checking through all the preferences to make sure they haven't been fiddled with. Annoys me endlessly when this happens.

It was ok before I updated to version 24.5.

Yep. They'll have changed something. It's just a matter of working out what. I'd email them and see if they have had other people encounter the same issue.

Cheers all.
Now onto Ross tech.
