Where can I get a VCDS cable?
A new battery has been put on. I will report back with make and model. |

Battery charge rate is controlled by the battery ECU. If the ECU believes the battery is fully charged, it will not pass the alternator voltage to the battery. You could have a faulty battery ECU. I would scan the energy monitor ECU For faults first, and then suspect the battery.
