    Ran across this connector while replacing front splash guard, behind the little grill around the passenger-side fog light. Seems like it should be plugged into something, I don't see anything obvious. (by the condition of the plug, it's been unplugged a while.) see pictures. Any ideas...

    Hi all i posted a question around a week ago, and as of my login today, there has been 130 views on my question. I am assuming that no-one knows the answer or even knows what i am talking about or it could just be me not doing something in the correct way according to the site but i am a...

    I have a 2001 passat GLX 4motion I took the dash out to replace the heater core and when I disconnected the connectors inside the ECM box that go to the dash I noticed they were corroded. I cleaned them up but still when I put it all back together I got a coolant low indication and oil pressure...

    Hi guys, I'm about to change my abs module for the classic abs flashing light and beeps. So I got lucky and found a working one, same serial number (I know...very lucky) from my local scrapyard, all for £40. But here is the dilemma: when I disassembled it from the abs pump I didn't find those...

    A neighbor of mine is shopping for a car for his daughter, and he sent me a craigslist post for a local 2007 B6 2.0T Tip Variant that seller lists some issues, one of which is: "Also the airbag light is on - but they told us there was nothing wrong with it, just one of the connectors is bad so...

    I'm so pleased with this little tool that I made, that I just had to share. With it, I can easily disconnect electrical connectors which had previously given me fits.:banghead: Here it is: It's just a strip of metal about 3/16" wide by a little over an inch long, with one end bent over to...

    my driver side low beam headlight doesn't work anymore. The high beam works fine. Replaced a new bulb, still doesn't work. Switched the bulb from the working side, no luck. Inspect and swap the fuse from the working side, still not working. Inspected the connectors attach to the bulb, they...

    Does anyone know the part numbers, or a source for just these connectors (pic stolen from ebay auction). These are the ones that are used for the rear fog light update. I'm looking for some project parts and these would work for what I need...I just don't want to strip them off an 8 dollar...

    I was wondering if to test the wires coming into the CCM if I could use a multimeter or a test light to all of the connections unplugged going into the CCM?

    Is this upper radiator hose connector on all the way? The bumps on the radiator end engaged with the slots in the hose connector, and I couldn't push it any further (clip up of course). End of a long project so I'm not in the mood for trial and error, and patience is a bit low Thanks.

    First of all, PassatWorld helped me a lot in understanding the terminologies and mechanisms for my car. Thanx Guys :thumbup: Now to my question. My 99 V6 engine was replaced with a used Audi V6. I know that the engines are the same and the new one works ok. The repair shop I gave it to forgot...

    Like lots of people my CCM got wet. No surprise there. I've checked the forums and lots of people say it's probably corrosion on the wires and not the module itself. I've taken mine apart and there is corrosion in the wiring connectors that plug into the module. I've tried to clean it but...

    Mine is 01, 1.8t AUG. The code P0171 has been on for a while, and I haven't noticed any performance/MPG change. But recently I noticed the car is hesitating upon starting in the morning. When I took it to dealer for the ignition coil recall, they told me the ignition coils are already updated...

    Hey fellas. A couple questions and a couple pictures to go with them. I just bought a Passat about a month ago now, and I'm coming to learn it a bit better as time goes on. I've had several mechanically inclined people help me do some simple work on it and we've noticed a couple odd things...

    Due to some front end damage a few years back I noticed two of the wires leading to my headlight were damaged. The light still works fine. But where the wires are damaged, there is missing insulation, some cut wire strands, and it's beginning to corrode. I just figured I'd prevent a melt-down...
