Tried reading ECU with actual Vag+Can cable. I made an idiot move and didn't close the VCDS software. Well I'm not sure what happened or where it happened since I couldn't actually read anything, but the car turned on and then died and so forth until trying to start it several times has led to the car no longer turning on. Hooked it up to a battery charger and letting it sit for 12 hrs then cycling key to try and get to work like my shop guy told me. If that doesn't work I'm going to try and do the ecu swap method on Ross tech. Other than that I am able to read and actually have a bin file from my car would be to delete the immobilizer all together? Anyone able to do that or direct me to where I can do that and just rid of the problem once and for all? Thanks!

You need to disconnect the battery cables. Both of them, let it sit for 10 minutes. Then go back out and turn the key but don't start it. Do you see a check engine light? If no check engine light when you turn the key then we have an Ecu problem. If check engine light is on but the car doesn't start then we just need to flash a file over it and then you'll be on your way. Not a professional but this has happened to me so this is what I've done to solve the problem
