Was a dead battery after all.


I was testing out the VCDS-light software and while the software was trying to pull information my Audi started to go crazy. Some warning lights went on and the emergency break light started flashing.

When I try to start the car it beeps a few times and the headlights flash for for a minute and then stop. If I try to turn the ignition some winding noise is heard behind the DIS but does not start.

The DIS is also blank only the time, trip and warning lights show.

I scanned for errors and only got this.
I checked the battery voltage and it is ~12.5v
