Skoda Praktik Malfunction Indicator Light Issue

I have a 2008 Skoda Praktik with a gasoline engine, around 90000 km. The malfunction indicator light recently appeared, along with an error message on the infotainment and speedometer. I scanned and found a fault code, but I'm unsure of its meaning. Has anyone else run into this?

That sounds familiar. My Praktik had a similar issue with the malfunction indicator. Did you get the fault code with a scan tool?

I used a basic OBD-II scanner, and it gave me a fault code, but nothing specific. What fault code did you see, and what fixed it?

My fault code was also vague. Clearing it didn't work. I took it to a workshop, and they found incorrect vehicle coding. They reprogrammed something to resolve it.

Closing this out, the shop confirmed it was a coding issue. It set me back 360€, but the malfunction indicator is now off. Thanks for the guidance.
