Dashboard lights!

[Foxy_787]

Hi everyone

Before I begin I am mechanical minded and have done many jobs on my vehicles. Only issue is I don't own a diagnostic laptop

Long story short I changed the battery 2 weeks ago and once I connected the new one the abs, auto hold, tpms lights illuminated.

I have been driving the car for over a week now and the lights are still there

I have disconnected the battery for 20 mins and reconnected and still there

I have turned steering wheel fully left and fully right and lights still there

I dont think they are actual faults as they weren't there before I changed the battery

Does these models require you to reset these codes via vagcom or do you need to code the battery to the car?

Thanks

You can’t just replace the battery on a Golf 7, it must be exactly the correct specification and must be coded into the cars battery monitoring system.
