I noticed this evening that my CC has stopped working, it was ok earlier in the week.

Anyway, I've read the various threads but they don't really help me .... L I'm gonna plug on my laptop when I get a chance..... can anyone direct me to the right things to check please?

I've got VCDS lite with a proper cable.

Seems usually brake pedal switches and clutch pedal switches usually.

Yeah that's what I gathered from the threads I read.

I also read that I should plug it in, but don't really have much of a clue what I'm doing :p

Agreed, brake or clutch pedal switch.

Db

Go into engine and select advanced measured value.

Brake switch and clutch switches are on the tick list.
