2002 Volkswagen Jetta review from North America
"Very nice ride!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far it runs good... but the airbag ligh on the dash is "on" after I intalled an aftermarket radio. By mistake while I was doing the wiring the fuse was blown and it took me a while to figure out what fuse to replace since all those little drawing on the fuse panel really suck. However, I was able to figure it out....I tried to find the a fuse diagram for my car but it seems we are all having problems with that but I ran into this posting that really helped and I hope it will also help some of you out there:
