No-start condition

[Tony Hoffman]

As mentioned, Ross-tech is the site for the Vag-com. You can also do a bit
of searching on several forums for a good used one. It not only identifies
the codes, but tells you a brief description of what they mean.

Sounds to me like the BCM under the drivers side carpet may have taken a
bath. Not good. Check your carpet and see if it's wet, front and rear
drivers side. If so, disconnect the battery, take it out, and remove the
bracket it sits in/on. Clean the drain under it, more than likely it's
completely plugged with debris. If that gets plugged, the water comes in
through the ECU box and floods the drivers side floor. Also run something
down the front sunroof drains. They are easily found on the sides of the
front, when the sunroof is slid backward. I like to use 8ga stranded wire
for this.
