Anita, Check the attached links, video shows how to change bulb.
"I hope this helped you out, if so let me know by pressing the helpful button. Check out some of my other posts if you need more tips and info."
There are two spring clams that hold the assembly into the fender, and these are at either side of the assembly, there is usually a screwdriver slot near either side. Gently pry the assembly out, and remove the lens and back, the bulb sits in the twist assembly in the lens. Replace bulb with a clean hand, so that oil and dirt don't get on the bulb surface, pull bulb straight out from socket, and replace by inserting bulb back in socket. Voila. Replaced Turn Signal Fender light.
TELL ME WHAT PROBLEM YOU HAVING.IF TURN SIGNAL LIGHTS DONT WORK YOU CHECK BULBS + SOCKETS AND THE FUSE.IF ALL OKAY PROBLEM IS IN FLASHER UNIT SWITCH OR LOOSE OPEN WIRE CONNECTION.IF EVERY THING CHECK OUT GOOD TURN SIGNAL SWITCH IS FAULTY.
The bulbs on these cars can be delicate. Some get replaced every year or so-( headlights, tail and brake) and some I've never touched in 8 years (my front turn signals and marker lights)
The fast blinking occurance is normal when a turn signal bulb goes out.
The rear lights are common to blow, I keep spares in the glovebox.
Make sure you were given the correct bulb, check to see that it works and isn't defective. Also there is an empty spot in the rear bulb holder- make sure you didn't mistakenly pop a bulb in there cause' it won't work.
The front right signal light is in the right headlight housing. Open the hood and on the back of the housing there are two plastic caps. One is curved and one is rectangular- you want to take off the rectangular one.
Open the drivers door and on the side of the dash there's a cover. This is the main fuse block. Use a coin or carefully with a screwdriver pry it open. To check a fuse pull it out, noting exactly where it came from, and visually inspect it to see if it is blown.
Fuse # 2- turn signal system
Fuse #4- License plate lights
Fuse #7- back up lights
Fuse #13- brake lights
Fuse #22- parking and side marker lights, right
Fuse #23- parking and side marker lights, left
The turn signal flasher is integrated into the hazzard button in the center of the dash. If all else is good and you suspect the flasher is bad, which is a good possibility, call a VW dealer and have them run your VIN# to check for recalls. The hazzard switch for some cars around your year had a recall on em'.
Very difficult. You have to open the inside access door on the drivers side, remove the amp and wheel well cover, pinch the tabs and the bulb cluster will release. The taillight assembly is bolted from inside of the car, so it can't be done outside.
Most likely a bad turn signal flasher .if the flasher is proper then check out if the socket where you insert the bulb is getting proper voltage.if not change that socket.
If the passenger side is blinking when you put the signal on, the flasher isn't the problem, as both sides would not operate if the flasher is defective. Did u check the rear bulb? Check the contacts of both the front and rear drivers side, along w/ the bulbs. Clean the contacts w/ fine sandpaper, and coat w/ dielectric grease (available at any parts store), this is specially formulated for elec. systems and will prevent corrosion, which is most likely your problem. Let me know how u do. countrycurt0
