Mechanic's Assistant: Does the light stay on, or does it blink?
Stay on
Mechanic's Assistant: Are you fixing your Golf yourself? What have you tried so far?
Tried to jump start and didn't work
Mechanic's Assistant: Anything else you want the Mechanic to know before I connect you?
The battery got drained because of the cold weather or possibly I left the light on almost a week.

**Hello, Welcome to JustAnswer.**
Thank you for using JustAnswer.
Yes I think all this is because of the low voltage, you might have to do a reset after replacing the battery. If there there is any fault codes they will reappear but I am sure that it is only the low voltage causing all this. You must just make sure that you have the radio code as it will ask for it after you have replaced the battery.
I hope this is all you will need should you however need more from me just ask.
Greetings,
