2001 golf tdi 4 door auto now a manual, mine, 2000 golf 2 door M/T son's,daughters 98 NB non-TDI 2.0, 2003 TDI NB for next daughter, head repaired and on road,glutton for punishment got another tdi 2001NB,another yellow tdi NB , added an 06 NB DSG
I had the same issue on my DD 00NB.
It ended up being one of the pins in the OBII connector.
I ordered a new connector off Amazon and spliced it in….. no issues and it’s been over a year now.

First check the power lead to the connector. If dead may be relay 109, if it's hot just need a new connector, assuming all fuses are good.
If your 109 is black, just get a new one.
