Casper 272 Posted November 19, 2019 Sounds like a wiring fault or broken wire somewhere had that once Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Contracts 68 Posted November 19, 2019 I seem to recall a similar issue with a Sharan turned out to be the fluid level sensor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stalker 180 Posted November 19, 2019 Defo a broken wire somewhere, it might be possible to code it out on vag com. Dig the wires out after the plug At the sensor (car side not pad side), one of them will be broken. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkTVS 209 Posted November 19, 2019 Run an earth to the loom a bit further up and see if that cures it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
