General Discussion / 2008 K25 R1200GSA error code 24153 ABS coding error (variant coding)
« Last post by Spreaders1963 on January 07, 2026, 10:57:36 AM »Hi All, I have replaced the instrument cluster with a used part with less KMs than the original and get fault code 37685 (BMS-KP and KOMBI mileage discrepancy) which I could live with.
However, the ABS warning lamp is now permanently on and I get fault code 24153 (ABS variant coding error). All other ABS tests are OK.
The warning lamp flashes (as normal) after a reset, but remains on after ignition is turned off/on. The autoscan report from before replacing the cluster does not show fault 24153. Is 24153 caused by the replacement of the cluster or could it be coincidentally a fault with the ABS?
Am I right in suspecting that only the dealer can update the ABS variant, same as with correcting the mileage discrepancy fault?
Many thanks, Andrew (Singapore)
