Re-assembled the console , reconnected the battery and fired it up , the switch wouldn't switch the ebp off though , but selecting gear and driving off gently did the trick , so it's now drivable , can't switch the brake on and there's the warning symbol lit , but it's progress

Don't know anyone local with vcds so I'll try star performance down the road this week , he comes highly recomended , I need the suspension looked at as well , but a mate offered me the use of an athos console , so I might see what that's about , I need to start learning if I'm going to keep this thing

Good to hear you got going again, but on the electronics you removed did you strip it down and clean it out then dry it?

I had same problem and when i pulled the unit apart there was all sorts of nasty electrolysis between the connector pins on the pcb, i have a feeling if left it wouldn't be long before the board would fail.
