My camry isn't starting and I thought it was the battery (5 yrs old) and got a new battery. After that, starting was difficult and it still wouldn't start. After a few aaa calls and realizing hitting the starter would get the car to start, I realized it might be the starter. Now, the car won't start even after having one person hit the starter while I turn the key.
View 14 RepliesTiguan :: Battery Died Now Driver Side Back Door Actuator Won't Work
Among other issues that have been happening with our tig, the battery crapped out. Replaced the battery no problem. The drivers side auto up and down stopped working but that was an easy fix.
When the battery died we noticed the chirp wasn'tt happening when you lock the car. Back left door isn't locking or unlocking with either the fob or any buttons on doors. The lock buttons on the affected door either, but the window works fine.
This seems like the battery dying caused it, is there some way to reset it like the auto up?

1998 passat. the drivers side rear door functions don't work; the power window does not work and the power door lock does not operate in the door. the other 3 doors work fine- power windows and locks. I do not have the bentley for this car so I am working at a disadvantage; where does the power for the door come from? any kind of control box? relay? fuse?

As our Pri age, sooner or later the 12 v battery will fail and at exactly the wrong time. So perhaps preventive maintenance means replacing it just before failure. What has been the experience of other owners of 2010's as far as failure goes?

The dealershhip told me my 12volt battery may be dead. the symptoms are the car has now power and the key fobs do not work. I tried jump starting last night.

I lost connection and reconnected and only the orange light came on on the power button, and check engine light came on and green light came on on park button.

Recently I drove in to a huge puddle of water, and since then my car has not been the same. Two sets of problems started happening almost immediately.
Various functions on the cluster are not working, such as the speedometer (reads zero no matter what speed I go), odometer (remains at 28,787) and the gas meter which fluctuates constantly.
Also, the brake system is just out of whack completely. It simply isn't working well at all. Attached are two pictures of the dashboard.
I went to a local mechanic, and he suggested having the cluster and brake sensors replaced with brand new ones.
Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: 2010 - Battery Light Came On - Power Steering Won't Work?
My daughter's 2010 Corolla has an issue . She was driving and the battery light came. She kept driving and the car finally stopped. Prior to stopping the power steering stopped. I checked under the hood. I found corrosion on the positive battery post. I cleaned it and put a new end on and replaced the battery. The red battery light is still on which I guess indicates we need a new alternator. The power steering still doesn't work.Will a bad alternator keep the power steering from working? Could there be a fuseable link or relay for the electric power steering some where I should check? I hope the alternator is the fix. I checked on a new power steering motor which is part of the rack and assembly. I hope I don't have to replace these.

View 2 RepliesTiguan :: How To Lock When Remote Won't Work
Turns out you can. Each door has a manual actuator on the inside door jam area beside the door catch. It's covered by one of the rubber grommets and the grommet has a symbol of a lock on it. If you remove the rubber cover, you can actuate the lock manually by inserting your key and turning it. All doors seem to have this. Mind you, I didn't check the trunk. I keep learning something with the Tiguan
View 24 RepliesTiguan :: 2012 - How Does Electric Parking Brake Work
My 2012 Tuguan has, of course, the electric parking brake. It is very refreshing to have a car with a parking brake that actually works. I'm a believer in actually using them.... unlike my wife who just doesn't see the point. And I use it a lot, like for long waits in traffic..... it's so easy.
Anyway, I am wondering how it works. I took a quick look underneath, looking for a motor operated cable that might be working on a secondary drum, but didn't see anything like this. To be honest, I have never seen parking brakes work directly on a disc. I thought it might be possible that there is an electric hydraulic pump that closes the calipers, but this would require some fairly complex valving to prevent back pressure on the master cylinder. How it works. I can hear what sounds like a motor(s) running for a couple of seconds when I raise the little paddle.
Tiguan :: Push Button Start Does Not Work At All Or Hesitate
My 2014 Tiguan SEL has been giving me issues with the start button - hesitates at start, tries to start but doesn't and won't start at all. Took to dealership in March/April and they had it for 2 days. "Couldn't duplicate" so nothing was done.
I've read about this same issue in other VW forums and how cleaning the contact points on the start button has eliminated this problem. Unfortunately, the start button on the other VWs is on the steering column. How to remove the start button? Do I need to remove the entire center console? I've already tried by taking off the boot/trim and can't get to the button.
Tiguan :: Power Seat Control Sometimes Won't Work In Park?
My Tiguan seems to have a quirk where after getting into the vehicle and adjusting the seat position either with the switches or holding one of the numbers (1, 2, or 3), there is absolutely no response. After driving for a couple minutes, the power seat controls magically come to life.
This happens maybe 1/10 times I get into the vehicle. I am adjusting the seat with the vehicle in park. If it doesn't work, I have to wait a few minutes and am able to adjust it while in drive. The controls work while in either park or drive 9/10 times.
I am trying to reproduce this more consistently before bringing it to the dealership otherwise there will be no fault found and I'll look crazy!
Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Replaced Evap Box, Heater Doesn't Work
I just replaced my evap box along with most everything connected to it (had some bad servos and replaced other stuff for good measure). AC works great now, but the heater still doesn't work. I've had this car 4 years and the heater has never worked. When I took the box apart, the doors were naked (no foam). Heater core looked ok, but thought it would be stupid not to replace it while I was there.
So, I was hoping this may cure my heater issue, but was really only looking to get the AC going. So, the car had been running for 30-45 minutes and while the heater was on, I went to check the heater core hoses, the pass side hose was hot, the driver's side wasn't. Driver's side goes to axillary pump and bottom of coolant reservoir. Not too long ago, I replaced the mechanical pump and t-stat along with other stuff (crack pipe, etc.). Thought I'd get everything while I had the system drained. Didn't work then, either.

View 1 RepliesPrius (Gen 2) :: Replaced Battery Twice But Car Would Not Start
I have a Prius for a company car. They have replaced the battery twice now and the thing only has 44000 miles on it. Got in it again after leaving an account this morning and it would not start. I let it sit about twenty minutes then it started. All my radio stations go out and every day I have to reset the clock. They have sent it in twice now and cannot find an issue but it keeps happening. Today was the fourth time in less than two months.
