Just an update... it's FIXED! (hoped to edit original post to reflect this?) After tearing the dash apart, it turned out to be a wire from the instrument cluster loom to the fuse box. There's a red/white wire that provides power to the cluster and it should be 12v, anything less than 11ish...

Thanks for keeping up with me on this everyone :) appreciated OK.. had another stab at this and got somewhere...!... but far from a fix. I put battery on charge overnight and it was fully juiced up. I connected it and tested Fuse 6 in engine bay again, and that was a solid 12v. I'm measuring...

Hi Reesy, are you still in pembrokeshire? could realy do with getting my Audi scanned as I've only got vcds lite :)

Hope it's ok to resurrect this thread, rather than starting my own and cluttering the forum. Having the same problem but havent found a fix! it's doing my swede in :P (it's a 2006 A3 tdi 8P) Started with flickering dash, then no dash lights at all. Car wont start (it turns for a second and...
