CommentTaillights don't turn on
Volkswagen Jetta 2013 Sedan 2.5 SE 230000 miles
So my brake lights work but when I turn my taillights on the driver side doesn't work. I've check fuses and replaced bulbs. I even took out the light fixture and plugged it in to the passenger side and it works. I do have a fog light out on the passenger side that I haven't fixed. Could it be that those are connected? Like Christmas lights when one doesn't work it affects the others?

Tail Lights won't turn on
Volkswagen Jetta 2015 Sedan 145000 miles
Tail lights on my jetta won't turn on. I tried replacing bulbs with many different styles, replaced the few fuses that indicated lights but nothing seems to work. All other lights work, turn signal, brakes and reverse lights but the running tail lights dont.

Android touch screen radio with backup camera not working properly.
Volkswagen Jetta 2008 Sedan, 2.0T BPY, dsg, Wolfsburg edition 165000 miles
Replaced the factory multiple disc unit that died with an aftermarket android CarPlay unit. Wired it into the taillights along with another one for a dash cam (it’s working perfectly). Everything except the backup camera works fine.
The trunk doesn’t work now either.
There’s no real instruction manual whatsoever. China. Came with a wiring harness and cambus decoder that plugs right in.
Got any ideas on this?

The camera works perfectly with the power on and the engine off. Switching into reverse mode and shows a good image from the backup camera.
However, with the engine running it doesn’t work. It briefly shows a multiple image, then goes black, and gives a no signal message.

Update:
I’ve seen a gadget on AliExpress that claims to fix this problem. A transducer or something. The device filters out the hidden data transmitted in the wiring somehow. Apparently, this computer data is only present when the engine is running.
It looks like a typical canbus adapter for led headlights that wires in like a ballast resistor.
Could it be that simple?
Why is this not common knowledge if so?
I’m going to try it. Costs less than $5.

The odometer and and RPM gauge lights do not work. The console lights do not work. The tail lights and headlights do not work. The license plate lights do not work. My highbeams do not work. All of this happened at one time I was assuming it was a fuse, but I checked them all and none of them are blown. Please help me. What should I do?
