Skoda Rapid starting problem

My 2016 Skoda Rapid diesel refuses to start. The error memory shows 'Terminal 15 ignition positive interrupted.' Suspecting a defective cable or plug connection. Could this be linked to the starter solenoid or relay switch? The error code suggests a power supply issue, but I'm not sure where to start.

Sounds familiar! I had a similar problem with my Rapid. Car won't start, and it was driving me nuts. Have you checked the fuse box? That's where I started looking. It might be a power supply issue. I was getting error messages too.

Appreciate the quick response! Which fuse exactly were you having issues with? And did you also have the 'Terminal 15 ignition positive interrupted' error specifically? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Yep, that was the exact error! I can't recall the specific fuse number now, but I remember checking all of them related to the ignition and power supply. Honestly, after messing with it for hours, I ended up taking it to a workshop. They found a corroded connector. Saved me a ton of headache, even though it cost a bit.

Fault was indeed a defective cable connection, as suspected. 95€ later, the Rapid is back on the road. Thanks for the input; it gave me a valuable starting point.
