Under here (above drivers feet),second from left thick red wire......

IGNORE FAULT CODE READERS FOR NOW as they can report these faults even when there's nothing wrong.But if there is a genuine power supply problem (very likely as they are common in mk.4s ) then take a look at the fusebox on top of tthe battery,in particular the fuselink shown as they can get almost invisible hairline cracks that can give the symptoms you're getting.

Also check it''s next door neighbour the alternator fuse...

Chris youre a star mate.Will give it a look and post back on here.Thanks again,much appreciated

 

You're welcome.Meant to say earlier the hairline cracks can actually hide just under the very edge of the nuts,so you won't see anything unless you remove them completely.

Chris.

 

Hi Chris,apologies for not getting back sooner! Had a look at all the points you indicated with no luck.However the fault has not re-appeared,havent done anything to it though.As long as it`s gone im happy [].Thanks again for your time and effort,it`s guys like you that make this forum such a great font of knowledge,appreciate it.Pete

Hi All,

I know this is an old thread...but I own a Golf IV 1.6 16v BCB and live in ITaly, yesterday I did a scan with VCDS ( 2022 sw version) since the passenger door is unfortunately blocked again from outside and inside - random behaviour .

The scan result shows, as usual, since months two errors 00913 and 00929 but yesterday got a new entry...
00849 - S-contact at Ignition/Starter Switch (D)
25-10 - Unknown Switch Condition - Intermittent

The Ross tech page http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/00849 suggest to check Terminal S , does anyone Know where is located? and what about terminal 15 ? is the same area as shown above by Imagewerx ?

Thanks a lot
