    Well, since i’m breking a Passat G60 syncro these days. i want to use the abs unit because of the bigger mastercyl and the bigger brakes

    but, my concern is. the ABS ECU in the passat is removed and the wires are cut. so, the wiringloom for the passat abs is no good

    but, can i reuse the loom that is in my gt? is it the same? or are there other differences?

    Chris? you know? i’ve looked at the abs manual you sent me, but, i can’t read german :D (lol)

    Regards

    Dan

    If the Passat has only ABS & is not fitted with EDL (Electronic Differential Lock) then is is a direct swap,

    You can count the number of wires in the Passat harness where it was connected to the ABS computer and if the Golf harness has the same number of wires you will be ok.

    Somewhere I think I have the ABS Manual in English (hopefully)

    Do you know the VIN nr or year of the Passat?

    I just had another thought about this, the later EDL master cylinder has an extra plug on it (for the EDL)
