Best of luck with your repair!

Can you recommend a good manual or place to find wiring schematics? Thanks.
Michael, yes finding the right wiring schematic is sometimes hard. The better repair manuals will include them and some poeple have reported good luck from e service info. Hopefully that helps.
Are the free pdf files you find online showing the wiring diagrams safe? Are they legal?
StaceM, We haven’t seen any issues with the pdfs. They seem to be generally safe and produced by helpful people. That said, I’m sure bad ones exist.
Hey great post.
About Volkswagen recalls, have you heard of the Volkswagen Phaeton? Did you know it’s basically a chopped up Bentley Continental GT? Sad, but true.
The Volkswagen Phaeton was a unimaginable disaster in my opinion, the worst vehicle made by Volkswagen!
Its Official: VW Phaeton is a total flop!
