Hi all,

I have a 2021 CUPRA Leon ST 1.4 e-Hybrid 245, and the following red warning has appeared on the dashboard:

“Electric drive not working. Stop vehicle safely! Consult vehicle wallet!”

The car won’t start or accept a charge. The 12V battery has been replaced, but this hasn’t resolved the issue.

Diagnostics using ODIS identified the following fault, which cannot be cleared:

P0AA200 – Hybrid/EV Battery Positive Contactor Circuit Stuck Open

Has anyone experienced the same issue? What was the cause, and how was it resolved? I’d also be interested to hear whether the repair was covered under the high-voltage battery warranty.

Thanks in advance!
