Electrical Issues
Hello all, I hope that someone can give me an idea of how to fix this issue.
I have had some electrical power problems, something was draining my battery, combined with very cold weather, a number of times the car would not start, until jumped. I resorted to putting on a slow charge over night, using the charging post, this alleviated the vehicle not having enough power to start up.
This started significantly in November.
So just a few days ago while driving on the Highway, received sudden error messages on all the lights on the left side; low beam, fog, etc. turn signals now flash quickly like the bulb is out.
I replaced the battery today, coded it in VCDS.
Still the whole left side lights are jacked.
Unhooked the battery, let sit for over an hour to hopefully de-bug; but no, still no lights on the whole left front side.
Here is my scan I ran tonight.
A few things; Air suspension has been removed, so that explains the level and compressor errors. Right front adaptive light blew up, still not repaired. The seat error is related to a soda spill that I have not completely resolved, nor the dealer.
I am focused right now on the lighting and turn signals, even with the adaptive out, I still had my signals until the aberration of a few days ago.
Thanks in advance for any ideas or tips.
My latest scan is attached.

The module that controls the lights could be fried. Jumping is risky btw.
Try some coding operations on that module and see what you get back. Errors?
I have sourced 3 modules for my car off Ebay in the last year. $40-80 and great quality of part. Newer than what I took out and working perfectly.

Remove all the fuses that related to the whole MMI system, radio, amp, screen, everything... then see what happens after..... meaning if the battery still dies
also check the Comfort module in the trunk to see if it got wet.... can unplug that on the second night if above fail, note with this unplug the keyless entry might go, so you will have to open door with keys....
if still dies get a new battery.....
