Polo Vivo 2013 not starting

Post by Beef »

My polo Vivo 1.6 2013 model has been having this abs light pop up from time to time. It always resets my clock to 00:00. This morning when I turned my ignition key to on everything just goes blank and it does not start. None of the lights or the radio are turning on.

What may be the problem?

Possible flat battery.

Oh winter blues.

Sound like your battery is flat as B_rad has mentioned and might need to be replaced.
Swing past a battery shop or even Supa Quick, they car test your battery and alternator if its charging correctly.

How old is the Battery in the car?
