01130 on Audi
ABS Operation: Implausible Signal
01130 on Audi vehicles indicates abs operation: implausible signal. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Audi model — most commonly on TT. This is a VAG (Volkswagen/Audi/Seat/Skoda) fault code logged by the ABS/Brake Electronics Control Module (J104). It indicates the ABS control unit received an implausible or inconsistent operation signal and can no longer trust its data, so it disables ABS function. It typically shows as a steady ABS warning light (often with the traction-control light) and, per Ross-Tech, can only be cleared after a test drive above 20 km/h (13 mph). Typical repair costs on Audi range from $250 to $1,400, depending on the specific model and root cause.
Common Causes of 01130
- •Faulty or blown fuse(s) supplying the ABS/brake control module
- •Internal fault in the Brake Electronics Control Module (J104) / ABS unit itself
- •Faulty wiring or corroded connectors to/from the ABS control module
- •Incompatible modifications or retrofits to the brake/ABS electronics
- •Electrical interference from external sources (e.g. high-frequency radiation)
- •Low or unstable supply voltage to the ABS unit

- ABS/ESP Control Module Failure Causing Warning Lights and Loss of Stability/ABS Function2000-2006
Mk1 Audi TT models are known for Bosch ABS module failures that trigger ABS, brake, and ESP warning lights. Internal module solder failures can interrupt wheel-speed processing and communication, disabling anti-lock braking and stability control functions. This issue is widely reported on VW/Audi forums and in owner complaints because it can persist intermittently before becoming permanent.
