Default Electrical issue / module issue help

Electrical problem! Help

Hello,



I have a 2016 Audi rs6. I hadn’t drove it for around 4 weeks, then I drove it for 15 minutes faultless until all of a sudden I had multiple warnings on the dash then the dash went completely black but the engine still runs. I have no hvac, no wipers no indicators no clocks but will still start up.



Anyway I did a scan with vcds and i can’t communicate to multiple modules.


I charged the battery just in case it was that also I have checked fuses which all seem to be ok.

here are the faults 9803 - No Communications with Parking Assist Control Module A

Suspect it is the battery, despite you changing it. At 11.9v is much lower than I would expect. Anything below 12.7v tends to throw up all sorts of random issues

I did wonder that. I charged the battery overnight. Tried clearing codes but still the same. I checked voltage at the battery with ignition off and I’m getting 12.2v
