I have a 2004 Jetta TDI 5spd with the BEW engine code and close to 108,000 miles. Currently when I go to start it, 50% of the time all of the dash lights will come on but very dimly and flicker rapidly. I have to re-cycle the key multiple times before the lights come on as they should and it fires right up. Also, after starting the car and going down the road the battery light will come
on and the vehicle will shut off entirely, and bump start itself due to it being in gear at speeds of 20+ mph when this happens. I have load tested the battery and everything checks out fine. What could cause these issues? Possibly loose grounds or faulty fuses?
