Reading zero at VGS simply means that the ABS & VSC computer is not supplying DC5V or the line is grounded. I also worry that the voltage regulator in the computer is dead.

The grounding can be checked simply measuring the resistance between those two pins. If not grounded, the 5V supply circuit may not be functioning and this needs you to analyse the voltage regulator but this requires you some good skills.
