Resistor showed up around 4:30, car was completely put back together and going on a test drive by 5:15. Really easy fix once I identified the problem. Put a few 2.7k ohm resistors in the glove box just in case, not sure what I would do with em on the side of the road but somehow made me feel...

I ordered 100 new 2.7k ohm resistors... (if I am reading it right) - Should be here tomorrow and will report back if it fixed the issue. Too bad Fry's or Radio Shack isn't around any more--could have fixed it today! When I was cleaning the connector up with some crc QD/etc the resistor...

Started replacing wiring and was still having intermittent issues with the connector, so decided to jump right in an disassemble the connector and see what in the heck is going on. To my surprise I found this resistor between two pins.`. Pretty sure given the corrosion and discoloration I...

Looks like there is a bad wire / contact close to the connector (can fix it temporarily by jiggling the wires). The smaller wires look like they are not supported very well as they are routed through the cover. When I tested the pins I was seeing pretty good ohm swings which indicated...

Thanks, will look at the PP pin and see the voltages/resistance. It is feeling like it may be a chaffed wire or a loose ground wire somewhere along the way to the BMS (fun times). Will report back!

Was able to hook the scan tool up this morning, found the value "Power outlet A for Battery Charging" this is incorrectly set to detected. When I pull the charging cable out it will momentarily change to "Not Detected" then flip back after a few seconds to "Detected". Are they using some...

Also just as an FYI, I confirmed the 12V battery is at 12.48V (assuming this is good enough!) The only "switch" I could possibly see is the one that keeps the charging port door closed. I may just start disassembling this tomorrow and report back. Also will load up Xtool Anyscan and...

Was driving down a local street and noticed an icon came up on the dash that detected the charging port was plugged in (it was not). Car stopped at a stop light and it was a full stop-had to push it out a major intersection to the side of the road-thank you VW engineers... Thankfully my kids...
