How did you determine which one is bad?

I didn't it still turns on then shuts off
Only way it turns on is if I bypass the interface itself
But then it says no signal to the modules which of course cause I bypassed them

Not a lot to go on... Give background on the car.... How long have you had the car before this thing happened. Did water get into the car?

VCDS scan ?

What are the things you worked on during the past three months?

Your issue is vague. The way you presented your problem assumes your MMI is working, so the way Louise responded to your question assumes your MMI is working.

If your MMI is working, you would get the outcomes Louise has mentioned

Have you considered the possibility that your MMI is faulty?

The MMI easily gets damaged from water intrusion. Over the life of my car, I have replaced mine twice.
