Momentary power (electricity) cut/reset
Hi Guys,
From time to time while driving I experience a temporary "reset" of some systems:
1. Front Information Display goes off (no power)
2. Gauges in off position (no revs, no speed etc)
3. MMI Screen and Audio goes off
4. Aircon Blower goes off
5. Headlights goes off
6. Cannot open windows
All of the above comes back on after a second or so, and then the car complains about ABS, Parking Brake, ESP etc, but this disappears as it cycles through and everything is back to normal after about 5 seconds since the "reset/power cut".
Gearbox might or might not disengage, so sometimes I can just continue driving, other times I need to stop, turn off the ignition and then start to drive again.
Engine does not cut out, and seems little phased by the events that are happening.
No loss in engine power or any warning lights.
I am suspecting one of the two Power Relays or the Vehicle Electrical Control Module.
Ran diagnostics, but found no error codes. Kept the VAG running while driving once and when the "reset" happened the only error code was P0600 (Serial Communication Link Malfunction).
Anyone experienced this before?
