Bosch eBike 1C8060: Your control unit is not compatible with your ABS.

Risk level
High
Professional inspection is recommended.
Urgency
High
Quick answer
Your control unit is not compatible with your ABS. This is why your ABS is not working properly. For 1C8060, Bosch's user step is: Perform a software update in the eBike Flow app. Then restart your eBike. If the problem persists, please contact your specialist dealer. If the same code returns, preserve the display and stop repeating resets.
Safety first
Stop and check this first
- Assume ABS may be unavailable. Ride only if normal mechanical braking is confirmed and conditions are safe; otherwise do not continue and arrange transport to a specialist.
Safe checks you can perform
- Preserve the code before changing anything
- Apply only Bosch's published user step
- Use recurrence as the stop point

These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.
These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.
Measured handoff for 1C8060
What they doUse the saved timing, system generation and Bosch diagnostics to test ABS in the state that produced 1C8060; verify software, connectors and component values before replacement.
Before accepting a part or repair
Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.
Checks and evidence, step by step
Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.

Procedure
Perform a software update in the eBike Flow app. Then restart your eBike. If the problem persists, please contact your specialist dealer. Record whether the condition “Your control unit is not compatible with your ABS.” disappears and whether 1C8060 reappears after the exact published step. Do not add an undocumented reset or open a component.
Assume ABS may be unavailable. Ride only if normal mechanical braking is confirmed and conditions are safe; otherwise do not continue and arrange transport to a specialist.

Use recurrence as the stop point
No special tools
Procedure
If 1C8060 remains absent, monitor the same function; that does not prove a repair. If “Your control unit is not compatible with your ABS.” or 1C8060 returns, stop the user checks and book a Bosch eBike specialist.

Symptoms and causes
Probable causes · in order
- What the code establishesConfirmed
Bosch identifies 1C8060 at ABS: Your control unit is not compatible with your ABS. Keep that meaning scoped to a Bosch eBike system and the exact code shown.
Evidence: Bosch eBike Systems — official fault code 1C8060
- What the official step decidesPossible
If “Your control unit is not compatible with your ABS.” clears after Bosch's exact step, only the current condition has cleared; no failed part has been proved. If 1C8060 returns, the documented user branch is exhausted and the recurrence becomes the evidence for service.
