( 2013 ) Skoda Octavia 2.0 TDI SCOUT with 6-speed manual transmission.

My friend's car suddenly had a major electrical fault.

Suddenly—and without any prior issues—there is no power to the entire rear section of the car,
along with a few other likely related faults.

No tail lights.
No brake lights.
No turn signals.
No reverse lights.
No license plate light.
The tailgate lock solenoid remains in the closed position.
The engine doesn't stop when the key is turned to the OFF position, instead it keeps running perfectly.
If the key is removed from the OFF position, the entire dashboard starts flashing frantically yet the engine keeps running—though now very, very poorly and unevenly..


I’ve attached a VCDS fault code scan I performed.
...Can anyone draw any conclusions from it ? 🤔
Has anyone experienced a similar electrical fault on an Octavia-II ? 🤔

🤔 For some reason unknown to me, I cannot upload the VCDS fault code reading 🤔

No it is not.
