Hi all,
I’ve reached a stump in trying to resolve some electrical issues i’m experiencing.
Back in 2022, I would charge my car every day after driving it which caused the battery to explode and make a mess in my engine bay. This led to one annoyance which is the intermittent hazard slow, and steadily going off for 5 minutes after being locked. (Not always, but would happen at random times)
Fast forward to end of 2022, my battery was warrantied. This has resolved the issues I was experiencing up until a few days ago.
The car is doing the same thing. Battery level appears to be alright, alarm horn works, but lights goes into a slow hazard state after being locked.
A few notes:
- I replace key battery once a year.
- No error codes on the vehicle.
- After reading a few VAG forums, some people have experienced this and was resolved via replacing the alarm module (not sure why, but my gut says this won’t resolve the issue(
- Another possibility is a battery replacement, but I’d like to get to the bottom of the isssue.
A few wiring / electrical work done to the vehicle just to note:
- Folding Mirrors
- Viofo A119 with Parking Mode
- Bucket Seat with Airbag Canceller (Using a Resistor)
I’m really torn with what to do at this point. It makes me feel like I’m seeking attention every time I’m parked.
Anyone experience this issue?
