sounds like your electronic control module got shorted out somehow. You can find one on ebay for under 200 dollars and if u know someone with vagcom u can recode it to your car. U can actually access the module underneath the kick panel of the steering wheel. Pull off that panel and get on the floor and look up. U will see this module. http://www.ebay.com/itm/02-05-AUDI-A4-A4Q-S4-ONBOARD-POWER-SUPPLY-CONTROL-MODULE-COMPUTER-8E0907279F-/261226302723?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Make%3AAudi%7CYear%3A2003&hash=item3cd24d0d03&vxp=mtrU can actually open it up and see if there is any signs of the board getting fried. that would be my best guess besides the actual control module for the car. Which is a bit more pricey.

hey guys, i wouldnt say the EXACT same thing is happening with my car but there is a blinker issue that has gotten worse. basically when i turn left and put the left blinker on it works 100% of the time, but when i put my right blinker on it works about 25% of the time and the other 75% of the time it will blink left a few times before switching to the side that SHOULD be blinking. sometimes itll blink twice on the left then go back to right or other times it will just continuously blink left with the stalk in the right turn position. it is highly annoying and it makes me look like im lost/drunk/stupid and its really getting to me. anyone ever have this issue or know what to look for?? thanks!

Hey i would think it might be your turn signal stalk going out. IVe actually read a couple of people having same symptons and they either dust out the inside of the stalk or completly replace it. MIght check into that.

alvy,
Fog lights are out on my car too.

I've been reviewing some wiring diagrams and it appears that the lack of fog lights could be an indicator that the load reduction relay is not energized. I plan to check this relay next week.

Further, it appears that the relay gets energized by "grounding" through the steering column module (not sure about this...would appreciate comments from any audi tech).
Thanks.

UPDATE!:
Broke down and took it to a local euro garage. Was told my onboard power module is suspected. I just replaced it myself (bought the wrong one for garage ) but still the same issue..I'm taking this has to be recoded? I have Vagcom but without old one working or able to communicate with how can I reprogram this? Or should I just take it to the stealership? Thanks guys...I know im a newb ;(

hmm u might search google. I know that there is a diy from rosstech on how to recode that power module. IT has to do with inputting values for how the lights work and all that fun stuff! Good luck.
