Replying to: kaitross (Jul 31, 2007 7:59 am) Have a 2000 beetle, this thing has been a nightmare. so far this is whats been going on over the past 3 weeks. Week 1 - A/C comp only getting 8 volts, so now A/c doesnt work. Week 2 - Drivers side power window quit working Week 3 - now the high temp light goes on and off - even when cold???... This car is driving me nuts, along with my wife harping at me all the time saying "when are you going to fix this". Problem is, I keep trying but cant get anywhere. The 8 volts on the Compressor I think might be a ground issue? The high temp light on/off might be a bad sensing device? and as far as the window not working-I havnt even got to looking at it. This car is starting to make my stomach hurt... PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Replying to: guns2 (Aug 17, 2007 11:51 am) The heat light is an easy one (I hope). Add some coolant to your coolant bottle. The contacts inside must be covered! Can't help with the window but hope other info helps. |

I'm having a problem with my rear hatch icon staying on. Also, the same day that started, my car quit beeping when I woudl set the alarm. I know it must be a sensor problem but don't know where the rear hatch sensor is located or whether it is something I can repair. I'm out of warranty and I'd rather avoid the service department if at all possible. Can someone provide some insight?

I have a 200 beetle. Here is what I have experienced without any warning: Electrical system components stopped working: Horn, Turn Signals, AC & Blower, Vent controls, Winshild wipers & Fluid controls, Head Lights. Here are the electrical systems still operating correctly: Radio, Brake Lights, Running Lights, Pwr Windows, Pwr locks, Pwr Moon roof, Pwr trunk, Pwr gas door release, Car starts and runs normal ! Pleaee Note - The hazard flashers work, the momentary bright lights when you pull back on the turn singal works. I have verified all fuses next to the battery are OK, All fuses in the fuse box are OK, I have removed the covers to access the relay panel. I removed all relays and checked all relay coils with a VM and everything looks OK. There were no contacts welded. No sure where to go from here. Any suggestions. |
