Hi Guys,

Just a quick summary:

Car has been suffering from a low battery, so every few days of no driving I need to jump the car to get it going. I checked the voltage on it and it was around 12v reading so I ordered a new one from the interweb.

I tried swapping it the other day later realised how much of a PITA the torx bolt really is, so I decided to leave the old battery in until I got something thin enough to get to the bolt, this is where the issue arose. Since then, my car has no power. No internal lights or lights turn on when you open the door nor does the cluster lights come on. Car doesn't even bother cranking and the central locking is off - basically no power anywhere. I have checked and re-checked the -ve and +ve leads I had taken out and I can't think for the life of me what is causing it.

Any ideas or help folks ?

It's a 1.8t Quattro if it matters.

Thanks

Shuggy
