No tail lights, or no brake lights?
For no tail lights, turn headlights on and see if any of the other running lights or marker lights are working. If they are, you may just have 2 bad bulbs. If non of the tail, running or marker lights are working, check fuse with test light to verify power is going through both sides of the fuse. Next step is to verify light switch is sending power to each cicuit.
Your taillights are not on the same circuit as your hazard and brake lights. Unlikely it is the brake light switch.
If brake lights are not working. Depress brake pedal with heavy object and check fuses and at least one bulb socket for power. If they check no power, check brake light switch for power it, and going through it while pedal is depressed.

Check the wiring in the accordian looking rubber between the door and the pilllar. I had the same problem and spent 3 hrs and $60 bucks to replace the locking mechanism, and it works for 1 day. Looked at the wiring and there were broken and frayed wires.
 
Good luck - hope this works.

I experienced the same problem with my 2002 Passat. The hazard relay switch was the culprit. This switch operates the turn & hazard signals. A dealership in OH wanted $132 to replace it. We ordered the part from the Internet for $26. It was pretty simple to replace.

I just got off of the phone with the dealership and I think that I have a big problem with the electrical system. They have replaced comfort control module and the ignition switch and tried to start it up and still nothing even with the diagnostic tools of the dealership. I need something that I may suggest to them that will help. No door locks work, dose not start, alarm dose not work, windows do not work, and they have no idea what it is. Dose anyone have any tips.
 
Thanks
Someone who neeeeeds help.

Windshield Wiper Storage Position by king_mtb

The windshield wipers on my 99 Passat work fine when they are turned on (slow, fast, int., etc.) they also have full range of motion. However, when I turn the wiper switch to the off position the blades do not store in the down position...they store in the middle of the windshield instead. Everything is tightened down, the blade arms do not need adjusted, and they do operate correctly when on. I have read on other forums that 1. there is a bad ground 2. the wiper motor needs replaced 3. there is a cam inside the housing that needs to be bent back into its correct location. Has anybody else had this problem? If so what was the solution?
 
thank you =)

Hi . .
New here . .Good site. My Passat is a 2001 sedan manual 1.8T with 124.000 on the clock.
I have electrical probs. Started with a blown fuse for power windows. Now have no power to sunroof, cant use remote door lock, cant use any windows, no internal lights.
When i take key out of ignition, both indicator lights on dash flash, when I take out the 10 amp window fuse, they stop . .!
 I can drive the car, but cant use windows . .
Anyone got any ideas, Think its a mechanics job.
Cheers
Steve

Hi, I have a 99 VW Passat and am experiencing electric problems. The only window that works is the driver's, all 3 others don't work. The door locking system is not working, as well as the alarm. The last issue I found is that I can't open the gas cap door, since the button doesn't work. Is there a way to open the gas cap without using the button? Also, any idea on how to fix all these electric problems? Thanks!
