Hope helped with this (remember rated this help).

yes the pump will start but it wont hurt it,,,and you only need side lights to tow a car,,,unless your in it then you need brake lights as well, but you wont hurt the fule pump ok,

the esp light is caused by failure of the brake light switch in most models. check your brake light operation and replace the switch if the brake lights have failed. the switch is found in the footwell above the brake pedal

the horn may be bad or the relay put direct power to the horn and see if it works if it does and the fuse is good then swap a relay with another identicle one and see if it works if not then its not a relay fuse or hor you have a wiring problem

Most likely the connector on the airbag was rattled. You may need to access this and make sure its on tight. If this fails you may need to get it diagnosed. A code will further help in the direction you need to go.

Use caution as the air bag could deploy if you hit it hard enough.

To safely inspect the connector you will need to disconnect the battery for about a half hour before touching anything. This will allow the ABS module to discharge and prevent any accidental deployment.

Also be aware of any radio codes if nessasary before disconnecting the battery if needed. Also navigation could be lost if you have it.

Hi


Thanks for using FixYa. You’ll have to unlock the octagon screws to release the headlight and push it forward. Now look to the left side with a torch and you’ll see a metal tab. Now take a flat head screw driver and press it down with it. The headlight will be released and the whole assembly comes out as it has an electrical connection on the back of the assembly.


Please do accept the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further assistance.


Thanks

before you do all that work try the simple fix / check to see if you have a sticking thermostat .

Start with 94-01 to get the headlamp assembly out and follow the remainder of the instructions if you have halogen lamps and use 94-02 for replacing HID lamps. The only tools that you need are a 6mm socket (with a screw drive handle) to turn the open/close shaft and a pretty long flat head screw driver (about 7" or 8") to depress the securing clip while pulling the assembly out. It may help to have 2 people the first time that you try this but once you get it the first time, it is easy enough for one persone to do it. What ever you do, do not over turn the open/close shaft. Before you order replacement lamps it might help to take the old ones out to make sure that you are ordering lamps with the proper specs.
Download the manual in the below link , it will be much helpful.

Call a VW dealer and get the phone number of the Homelink supplier.

The will send you a new one for free.

Change thermostat, flush radiator and fill completely with fresh 50/50 coolant. You can also try using a synthetic oil or a thinner oil like 5w30 which will help run engine cooler as well.

One of my driving lights went out after hitting a bump on a dirt road, how do I replace the bulb? It's not the headlight, it's the driving light or fog light.

THE VERY 1ST THING YOU DO IS HAVE THE SYSTEM FOR THE TROUBLE CODE THAT IS STORED INTO MENORY WHEN THE LIGHT COMES ON, THERE ARE 100'S OF POSSIABLE REASONS SO THE TROUBLE CODE TEST IS VITAL, YOU WILL NEED THE DEALER TO RUN THIS TEST.

The dealer will be able to get you another key. They can use a code and cut a new one.
