Engine runs but won't start 
Solved
Volkswagen Jetta 2001 143 miles
Hope someone can help me. I own an automatic Jetta 2001 and it was working properly until suddenly, one day, it wouldn't start again. The engine runs but there is no way it can be started. The fuel pump's pressure has been checked, the coil replaced as there were no sparks in the spark plugs, but the problem is still there. All fuses are alright as well as the crankshaft's sensor. The acceleration body has been cleaned and the battery replaced. Can the stereo have something to do? Because it is indicating SAFE 0000, meaning that the car is blocked? Can someone please tell me what to do?

I believe it is the comfort module, it is located below the driver's panel. I am having the same problem and need to replace it.
Ok my 2010 jetty started with the driver side back brake light being on bright. Changed everything in the light assembly. We'll my battery gets drained if I do t unplug it. When I start my car nothing works. O electrical like radio windows, turn signals, brake lights nothing but my parking lights work. I need some help here bad. I tore my motor apart like 3 times, the inside of my car is taken apart. Ne ideas or if ne one has had the same problem n got it fixed can u explain this for me. Ne help will be appreciated very much. Its been like a year now. .
Turns out was a bad ecu had it opened up no sign of damage but was white crystals on the metal cover so water damage had the ecu changed and replaced with second hand one first turn of the key it started now misfires with a leaking injectors seal cylinder 2 the joys
When a had a look at the car a think the problem is the ecu in the uk spec sits underneath the windscreen wil the plastic panel on top that the wipers attach to and mines had a crack directly above the ecu area so just over time water must have got in what about your car is your ecu in the same place USA spec ?
CommentWater leakage Solved
Volkswagen Jetta 1997 185000 miles
Hi everyone. What happens to my Jetta a3 is that, when driving with the air conditioning on for a while, water starts leaking through the passenger's side. I have been told that it might be that the drain hose is blocked. I would appreciate if anyone could tell me where this hose is located as I am not able to find it. Another thing I've noticed is that my car does not throw away water through its bottom part as most cars do when the air conditioning is on. I hope someone can help me.

Buddy it is not a hose. Near the engine, right next to an aluminium protector or fire wall, there is a black plug and there must be a blockage there. You remove the plug and with a screwdriver you stab it so that it is deobstructed.
Thank you heather33 it was as you said. It eliminated almost two liters of water and the problem was solved.
CommentAndroid 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.

CommentHorn not working
Volkswagen Jetta 2014 Automatic, 4 door Jetta 131000 miles
I have googled it and pulled up that when you hit the horn, you can hear the clicking noise. I can hear it underneath the fuels box area under the steering wheel, but I went and purchased a relay and I don’t know if I put it in the wrong place or what I also checked the fuses And still not working

CommentRadio not working
Volkswagen Jetta 2016 sadan 122396 miles
My radio and outlets have not working since i bought the car. The fuse to the 12v outlets is blown. I replaced it hoping it would fix the issue but it did not. There is no fuse where the diagram shows the radio fuse should be. When i try to put a different fuse in the same spot it is extremely loose and still does not work.
2 replies
Replace the fuse in slot 30 with a 20A and the fuse in slot 57 with a 20A hope this helps. If this doesn’t work, buy new fuses chances are the ones you bought are just poor quality
There is nothing in slot 57 and it does not seem to connect to anything. But the radio has turned on randomly for a few minutes here and there in the past.
Comment2021 vw jetta 1.4 tfsi No cranking
Volkswagen Jetta 2021 1.4 tsfi 63000 miles
Doesn't crank. All the fuses are good. Battery is good 12.6 volt. No cranking at all. I hooked up the ECU from another jetta, same result. Looks like whether immobilizer issue, or ignition switch, or ground wire.

VW Jetta Turns off on stops or when not accelerating.
Volkswagen Jetta 2007 2.0 Manual 179607 miles
My turns off some times out of no where, I start it again and continue, if I stop on red light it turns off, or sometimes when stop accelerating it turns off even when running. I changed the 4 wires and the cylinders (bujia) I guess they are called. The fans were not turning on, so we connected them with the AC and I now turn on the AC to have the fans on. The scanner keeps giving the errors after I change the entire 4 cables and bujias or cylinders.
