'97 jetta electrical problems
I have a 97 Jetta GLS. Recently, while trying to use the cigarette
lighter for the first time I noticed a piece of paper shoved up in there. My husband stuck his key in there trying to get it out, and something arched and shocked him. Ever since then, the truck release latch wont work, the odometer and clock wont work unless the car it turned on, and last but not least when I put the key in the drivers door to lock the car, the alarm goes off and wont turn off unless I unlock the trunk. I took it to the dealer and they claim that I need 3 new door wiring harnesses at a cost of $900, but they all seem to be working just fine (no bad wires). If anyone has any ideas of what the problem could be, I would greatly appreciate any input. Thanks, Kristi |

Sounds like fuses to me...maybe as punishment you should send your
husband to go trudging through a wreckers on a rainy day to find replacement parts if they are needed... |
