2001 Golf loss of power when indicating

[Frankblack67]

Hi

this is a very interesting fault.
I am losing power when indicating to a point where engine sometimes stalls.

also the clock display disappears.

i am also getting a DTC code of 00668.

Any ideas anyone?

This was on the net :


code 00668 I searched and searched and it seems that everyone with this code has had a bad battery or a bad electrical connection to the ABS. The battery is fine in this car and I can not find any bad connection to the ABS.

edit...

Thanks man.

Also notice that the dash lights flicker just before the car stalls.

Driving me crazy.

Do the symptoms occur when you put the indicator on (vehicle stationary), or when you corner ?

It does sound like a loose connection though doesn't it, you could try eliminating the battery with a slave battery from a donor car.

when cornering.
