At a dead end - HELP! Absolutely DEAD car!
#1
Hi - if anyone is still here!

I'm at a bit of a loss with my Phase 1 GTI - in short, I'm getting no dash, no crank, no fuel pump, no headlights, essentially no power.

What I am getting: hazards, interior lights, immo light, 12v into the cabin and into the barrel.

It was working, running well - 2 days later, I'm trying to get my new fan motor installed and working as the previous had rusted up and seized, alongside a busted heater matrix (which got changed).

I've checked: 
- 12v to the barrel
- Fuses inside
- Engine bay and maxi fuses
- Relays , and they're working
- Power to relays
- Recharged the battery
- Used jump leads with the battery and without the battery connected in case it was a dodgy battery
- Checked earth straps on the gearbox and in the cabin
- Checked the wiring behind the fuse box (as good as I can)

I'm at a bit of a loss.

The only thing's I worked on since it worked:
- Coolant flush (emptied via the stat housing)
- Rear lights refitted 
- Headlight bulbs added
- New fan motor plugged in 

Notoriously, I went to unplug these all one by one to see if they were causing an issue and still nothing.

Any suggestions would be great!
