Yep I only relised after I was rushing to get the connectors back in but have bent it back now but there's no voltage on the loom side of the car which should give 12v permanant

Have you replaced fuse for dash?
I would do that before anything else, could have just triggered and you may not be able to spot with your eye.
Send me a PM with your email,..... might be able to send you a wiring diagram if I dig out my old laptop with VW stuff on.
