Seat Arosa electrical issues

My 2002 Seat Arosa with a gasoline engine, currently at 193369 km, exhibits sporadic errors in driving mode and intermittently illuminated error lamps. Systems, primarily audio/navigation, fail intermittently. Control units shut down temporarily or become unresponsive. An error is stored in the error memory. I suspect a defective cable connection of the control unit relating to the BUS system. Any insights are appreciated.

I drive an Arosa as well. I had similar symptoms; sporadic warning signal, malfunction indicator lighting up, and the radio would cut out. Have you checked the error memory via OBD-II?

Indeed, the error memory was populated. Could you be more specific regarding the nature of the error and the eventual repair?

Yes, the error pointed to a communication issue with the control unit. The workshop confirmed a defective cable connection. I suggest a visit to a qualified workshop.

Thank you for the information. The defective cable connection to the control unit was indeed the source of the problem. The repair cost 155€.
