  1. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    Hey all, just joined this forum so that I could maybe get some advice for this seemingly unsolvable problem. I'm fixing up my sisters old 2002 beetle gls so she can sell it. The car has been sitting for years and has some water damage because of this infamous sunroof design. I've gotten...
  2. Technical Modifications
    So I've been looking around on the fourms and google for hours trying to find some kind of answer or hint as to what is going on with my bug. I have a 2000 bug 2.0 GLS (I think) without monsoon. I get everything wired up and when I plug in the wiring harness with my head units to the car's...
  3. 1.8 Liter Turbo
    My girlfriend recently hit a deer in her 03 1.8t turbo S demolishing one of the aftermarket headlights. Inside the demolished headlight as well as the intact headlight was a rats nest of butt clips and larger diameter wires than stock that likely are the cause of her ignition switch problem, but...
  4. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    Hi I have recently replaced the front door speakers, neither of which were working. The passenger side is fine, but when I connected the drivers door speaker I get nothing. I am assuming that the speaker cable has cracked/perished so want to try and replace it. Here is my question. I can...
  5. 2.0 Liter Gas
    Recently my radiator fan stopped working and upon inspection I noticed this cut in the wiring near the front driver side, in between the battery and the driver side headlight. Does anyone know what this wiring is? It looks like it goes into the radiator fan but I can’t tell. I don’t want to have...
  6. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    I would appreciate any suggestions as to what the problem described below might be or additional diagnostic procedures I should try. I am currently trying to diagnose an 8-amp parasitic draw on a 2006 Beetle. At first I thought it was a bad diode in the Alternator, so I removed the alternator...
  7. 2.0 Liter Gas
    Hello, I am a first time poster so be gentle with me. I am searching for the part number for the driver's side door wiring harness for my daughter's '05 convertible GLS. I have several issues with windows, door locks, and I believe battery drain caused by either damaged harness or bad CCM. I...
  8. Technical Modifications
    Hi, My 2009 Beetle's radio's buttons started breaking about a year ago. Going over bumps would also cause it to start scanning radio stations, so finally purchased an aftermarket receiver from Crutchfield. I didn't have any issues removing the old radio (aside from very short wires that kept me...
  9. Car Audio
    So I have this radio that my cousin gave me. It has this display on it that says "video not available while vehicle is moving" (this message shows even when the car is parked) I was wondering if there was any way to wire it to a sensor to tell it when the car is moving and when it isn't?

  11. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    My driver's side headlight in my '06 New Beetle Convertible will flicker and then lose connection. I know its losing connection because when I push the headlight back in well, it comes back on temporarily. Do I need to replace the headlight assembly or is it the wiring and exactly what is that...
  12. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    Ok, so my wife went to get in her 2004 beetle the other day and the starter just started clicking when she turned the ignition. I disconnected the battery for a bit and it cranked up fine after awhile. It did it again later that day. All of the instruments light up and the car seems to have...
