So I have a 2001 Jetta Wolfsburg, the wipers work fine, but when I switch them off they stop in the middle of the windshield. Also when I use the spray, the fuse blows every time.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Wiper Rear Windshield Sprayer Would Work Intermittently

Weird issue on my MK4 GTI. So it started out just as the rear windshield sprayer would work intermittently. Then the same happened to the front one. Then sometimes the rear windshield wiper would just come on by itself when hitting bumps on the highway. Now sometimes the front windshield wipers won't work, the rear doesn't work at all, and neither sprayers work.

So, where's best to start? I figured maybe the toggle switch is worn out. I haven't looked to see how hard it is to get out/test. I assume there's some linkage or wires I can get to once I remove the trim under the steering wheel to do a simple continuity test and see if the switch is working. Or would relays cause this? I wouldn't think that many relays could fail this quickly while running at normal voltages...

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2003 - Electrical Malfunction - Fuse Blows For Windshield Wiper?

This is for a 2003 GTI, 89,00 miles. Every time I try to use the windshield cleaner the fuse blows for the windshield wipers. I have tried to put in a 25 amp fuse and it worked for a while but still blew. The windshield wiper motor has been replaced.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2000 GLX - Intermittent Start And Stall / Pending Code P0321

My wife drove the car to work, and it ran good. She got a check engine light, but it was not on when I got home from work. I started the car and it idled fine for a couple of minutes and then it stalled. I check the codes and there was nothing locked in. There was a pending coding P0321. I am not sure what a pending code is, but I assume not enough to trigger the check engine light.

After work each night this week I tried troubleshooting but I have not gotten anything accomplished. Each night the car would start fine but if I turned it off it would not start until many tries if at all. It turns over strong but won't start. I drove it around the neighborhood today and it stalled and wouldn't restart.

The fuel pump primes. When the car won't start the fuel pump relay clicks constantly. Is this normal? I replaced the fuel filter because it has been 50k miles. Is the crank shaft sensor the problem? I hate to throw money at parts that aren't the problem when I can't get a code to trip the check engine light.

Chevrolet - 1500 :: Intermittent Windshield Wiper Operation

I'm trying to figure out what could be the reason why I have Intermittent wiper operation on this truck. It's a 99 Chevy 1500 4.8 4X4. It's almost like the wipers have a mind of their own. Sometimes working properly but most often not operating when needed the most. Is this one of the set-ups that has a pc board with a bad/cold solder connection? I'm sure that one of the regulars here has come across this at some time or another and found it to be a simple fix.

Volkswagen - Jetta :: 2006 - Windshield Wiper Stopped Working

What is wrong with my 2006 VW Jetta. The windshield wipers quit working all of a sudden. I stopped to get gas and turned off the wipers( it was raining), got gas and went to turn on the wipers, they are not working. I don't even hear the motor run. When I was trying to research online, one of the solutions I came across was spraying WD-40 on the motor to dry up the water and try to fix the problem.here are my questions. 1. does this work? 2. do I need a new motor? 3. If I decide to spray WD-40, do I need to take the wiper arms and the plastic guard on the front to access the motor or can I spray through the grill on the plastic cover?

Jetta - Volkswagen :: 2006 - Windshield Wipers Came Up Half Way And Then Stopped And Don't Move Further

We were borrowing my brother-in-law's 2006 Jetta and the day after a snow storm, the windshield wipers stopped working. They came up half way and then stopped and don't move further. You can hear a whirring noise,like something is trying to go, but no movement. We've been quoted $500-600 to replace the windshield wipers and motor, but we don't think they need to be replaced, just repaired.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2001 - Brake Pedal Goes Halfway Down Before Pressure Builds

My mom's Jetta has had a squishy brake pedal ever since we got it a couple years ago. I figured it went down so far because the brake pads were wearing thin.

After having just replaced the pads and rotors, I flushed the fluid with the Motive power bleeder. I cycled the ABS pump with VCDS, then hooked the power bleeder back up and opened all four corners again until fluid was flowing clean and bubble-free.

Everything went well with the change, but the brake pedal never got as firm as I expected it to. Before the change, the pedal felt like it would get dangerously close to the floor. The brakes always worked, but the pedal hit about 60-70 percent of its travel before the car started slowing down. After the change, it has improved slightly, but it feels like its going about half-way before the brakes start working.

The pedal doesn't drop when you hold pressure on it like I figured it would if the master cylinder was leaking. Is this normal for a mk4 or does it sound like there's something wrong?

Car is a late 2001 2.0 Jetta Automatic with the MK60 ABS pump.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Overheating At Idle - Temp Gauge Starts To Climb To 3/4 Instead Of Halfway

I got a mk4 where the temp gauge starts to climb to 3/4 instead of halfway when I'm idling for a while.

1. fans don't come on
2. if I turn on ac, fan come on and temp stays at 1/2

I tested low and high speed on fans. both operational. Is it the fan control module, temp sensor green top, or radiator s/w?

Golf V R32 :: OEM Front Windshield Wiper Don't Squeak Properly

Found that OEM new wipers were not completely squeegee-ing the windshield. i.e. getting small patches of wet/unwiped areas. Seems like it's skimming some areas instead of actually wiping.

Golf IV R32 :: Intermittent Wiper Speed Only Works On Low

The wiper-speed selector (aka: the little switch on the top of the right stalk) does not seem to influence the frequency in which the wiper activates on intermittent mode.

Lowest setting: 5 second interval
Highest setting: 5 second interval.

This is strange as it was working a week ago

Specifically any fuse for this function? Or is there a specific relay that takes care of this action?

Jetta - Volkswagen :: 1997 - Intermittent Loss Of Fan / Lights / Windshield Wipers?

I have intermittent loss of the windshield wipers, AC/heater fan and lights (and the brake light is lit even with brake off). I can turn the bright lights on by pulling the lever. Other electronic things work- radio, inside lights, turn signals. Usually if I turn the car off and start over it goes away. Fuses appear ok. It's a VW Jetta 97 GLS with about 75K miles. where to start?

Golf/GTI VI :: 2013 - Intermittent Rough Idle / Shakes As About To Stall Out - Engine Light On

I have a 2013 Golf TDI with 2070 miles on it. For around 2-3 weeks, I've noticed that it intermittently will idle rough, shakes, etc, as if it is about to stall out, but stays running and drives normal. I figured it was a typical Diesel thing and wasn't too worried about it. However, today, this happened, and I got an engine light. Yikes! I made an appointment for it but need to wait till after the 4th for it to be looked at. What's up here? Is it a regen cycle? Timing issues? Am I doomed with my Golf TDI?
