My break lights in my 01 vw jetta only work once in a while

Potential foundations for light issues in 2012 VW Jetta TDI: really look at wires, assess bulbs, wiring issues, flawed light/dimmer switches, control module, or battery. Counsel a repairman for precise finding and fixes.

If light is on all the time and not blinking take apart the turn signal on the side of car that the light is on . Both front anr rear remove the bulb and look for corrosion . If you find it clean it off of contacts if you cant remove ithe corrosion you may have to replace fixture. .Once cleaned it should solve your problem. if this was helpful please leave good feedback.

More than likely its bulbs .

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.

I believe this car has a bulb with two fillaments for side and brake lights, it is unlikely that they are both burnt out at the same time but possible. It is more likely that the bulb holder or a ground connection is rusted or loose. The fuse generally covers all rear lights.

Get a set of new bulbs.
Remove lens by disconecting rotary knob retainer from the inside , remove old bulbs,
straighten spring clips in socket and aply di electric grease instal bulbs ,,,test.

Almost sure it is a recall for a relay. Call the dealer, I had a 2001 VR6 with the same problem, and it was a simple, free recall.

Uggggh !! Ya gotta scew those calipers back in.. Tell him to leave it alone if he doesnt know what he's doin

when was it rewired

check all connections to the starter, and check relays.. also have the starter tested
