Things to check if the ABS light on the Polo 9N is on

Model: Volkswagen Polo MK IV, Polo IV, Polo 4, MK 4, 9N - Years 2001-2009
Part: Warning light – error code

In this interesting video, we see how to solve the error of the ABS light on the Polo 9N: before starting to investigate faulty wheel sensors, we see a common defect of this car, which could be the reason for the light turning on. It might be worth checking inside the battery box, where a small fuse box is located, wedged in the cover and connected to the large red wire that we can see coming from the positive pole. These connections are particularly sensitive to vibrations, and in fact we can see that in this case a connection is broken; for a check we use a voltmeter or a test light, and we see that if on one side the current arrives, on the other it is completely absent. We can find these fuse tapes for example on Amazon with the code B017XDJLY2 at the price of 5.39 + 6.23 euros for delivery. We replace it. We put the battery cover back in place and check that the light has turned off.
