@Hogie , first off, that looks like the ABS sensor fault. Easy to replace the ABS sensor yourselves or any good mechanic can do it for you. Many videos on YouTube on how to do it. Best to stay away from the dealers for that.

ABS sensor fault. Need to get Diagnostics either via VW, someone with the VCDS software or purchase the Carista dongle from Amazon etc.

Hi, does the ABS sensor fault explain the message stating tyre deflation system not being available and the three warning lights being illuminated?

Tyre monitoring is done by using the wheel disc rotation sensors same as the ABS. Which would explain the combined fault indication.

I've seen reports of your fault being a wheel ABS sensor or wiring from one.
One of those could be various faults causing the problem.

As it's the weekend, if you can, check all four wheel hubs sensor wiring is connected and no breaks in the cables as a basic check. Check as far back into the body as possible.
You are limited without any Diagnostic information as to where the fault is.

Always look at the easiest things first. You can almost guarantee it is an ABS wheel sensor either dirty or failed. Buy a Carista OBD2 reader, they are only £25 and just keep it in the glove box. Fantastic piece of kit...
