    I have a 2005 Allroad with this same probem. I bought another relay from Audi and replaced it. It did not work. I then replaced the ignition switch. That didn't work either. So now I have real problem. Those items on my car do not work and I have exhausted all options.
    Help! Is there something else I am missing? Short of having a bad relay I purchased from Audi I don't know what else to try.

    Hi all

    I posted this thread nearly 2 years ago. I recently had the same symptoms again but forgot that I’d had the issue previously and then searching the internet for a solution was quite surprised to see someone had exactly the same issue on a car exactly the same age and spec as mine only to see annoyingly the solution wasn’t posted then I realised the someone was me! Age doesn’t come alone!
    Anyway I couldn’t remember what I did to fix it . A search of eBay purchases showed I’d purchased an ignition but I didn’t actually fit it and I also changed the relays earlier in the thread . The problem wasn’t rectified but seemed to disappear after a short time and has been fine for nearly 2 years.
    Now the issue has returned . First symptom although may be unrelated I had a bulb blown error on the dash. Took car home and went to use a few hours later only to find no build errors but no headlights wipers heater etc .
    Tried it a few times but nothing changed . I ran a vcds and no relating error codes were present.
    I then resigned to investigating further this weekend in the daylight only to find when I started the car today All is fine!
    So I now have an intermittent problem . I’m assuming I can now rule out fuses as they are either good or blown . Will the same apply to relays? Is the fault more likely to be a bad connection on an ignition wire ?
    Anyone else had this issue?

    as always any help much appreciated

    cheers

    I’ve stripped it down to get ignition switch out . Is it ok to reconnect battery with airbag and steering wheel off to try ignition to see if I can find a fault?

    cheers

    if you can clear the airbag error codes , it is OK to do it.
