Resetting the power windows and convertible top on a 2004 Volkswagon Beetle

My battery died and my husband replaced the battery. After this, the convertible stopped working, the power windows stopped working, power mirrors, power locks, and the alarm started going off periodically. We have checked all fuses. We got the windows to work today by unhooking the negative cable from the battery and starting it. It fixed that problem but nothing else has worked for the other power options. We have even checked out the Comfort Control Module, but this was working fine as well. We would like to know how we can reset the power features. My all windows up control does not work either.

    This fix has saved me more than one time on my 2005, including tonight which was predicted to be a very rainy one in Miami. Thank you, TCI. Extremely helpful.

Which is the fuse number for electric windows and sunroof??

The power roof is Fuse #30. The power windows are probably controlled by a fuse located in the small fuse panel located on top of the battery. The car's electrical system is controlled by a 110 amp fuse and circuit breaker.

My 2003 Volkswagon beetle convertible's top has become separated from around the bottom and sides of rear window. Where will the water go and will it cause damage if I don't replace it? Thanks.

I'm having the same issue with my 05 Mustang. I don't know where the water will go in your car, but it could cause damage. I'm going to purchase some Goop and give it a shot.

I read on some forums that it might be only a temporary fix and I might end up having to replace my whole top. Good luck if you try it!

A/c went pop and hot air started pouring out.

Possibly compressor belt broken. Maybe sudden loss of coolant gas. Fix bad part and recharge.

Beetle Convertible window problem

My wife's car is a 2004 convertible. We had the same problem. There is a switch built into the door latch assembly. Whenever you pull either the interior or exterior door handle, the switch lowers the door glass a certain amount.

We replaced the door latch assembly and that corrected the problem.

2004 Volkswagen New Beetle

Remove the 13 mm bolt hold at the bottom side of the battery.
Take the splash shield off, and pull out the bolt, you can use a magnet to catch the mount and bolt when it comes loose.
You will find another bolt holding the power steering reservoir, take it out. then after pull it out , this won't be easy.
After replacing the battery the radio will go into safe mode and you will have to retrieve the radio code, and also reset the windows' one touch up and down programming.

2003 new beetle top won't go up

Try resetting the pinch protection program. You do this by inserting the key into the drivers side door, turning to the right and holding untill the windows are fully raised. Then you turn to the left and hold untill the windows are fully lowered. This is supposed to reset the program.

Good luck.
