2005 A4 cabriolet SAFE mode - all options tried

Hi all,

I'm stuck with the SAFE mode after disconnecting the battery to charge it after a full discharge (left untouched for 3 weeks).

So far I have tried the following in all different sequences after charging and reconnecting the battery (key fob battery is new now):

- short the cables together for 30+mins.

- press unlock button whilst lock is turned to On (but not turning engine over)

- press & hold unlock button before opening door, then turning ignition on, then off, then ignition back  on.

- prayer (no answer from the spaghetti monster)

Still the bugger will turn but not fire and the SAFE is displayed on the radio. Hazards are flashing but no alarm sounds.

I checked for codes with my OBD reader - nothing at all. I presume that one of the above would have re-synched my fob (if it needed it).

Does anyone have any other tricks I can try before I torch, i mean SORN it ?

Thanks a lot,

Tony
