Having a day off work today as my Skoda Roomster Scout (2008, 1.4tdi) is showing several faults. Firstly I couldn't get into the boot, locked car and unlocked it using key and fob, it will not open. Got into car in heavy rain and the front wipers don't work, rear wiper working normally. Dash has airbag and traction control system warning lights illuminated permanently. I haven't been able to go anywhere as the rain is persistent so I've been trying to figure out if I can cure the problem with fuses? I don't have vag-com here and can't take her to a garage. Any advice appreciated, thanks.

Where are you located?

Location given as Norfolk (maybe not visible on mobile?)

Hi Eddie-NL, I am in Norfolk.

Fault seems to be intermittent; after I posted on Monday and it stopped raining, I went back to start assessing the problem. Firstly the traction/esp warning light had disappeared from the dash. Then the wipers started working. Then yesterday I was able to open the boot too.

The only outstanding issue is the airbag warning light that is still illuminated.

I clearly have a problem with water getting in somewhere. Going to have a good look around when I finish work later today.

Norfolk is a big area, but someone near to you with all the gear and a knowledge of how to use it might be able to help if you narrow down a bit where you are.
