Default Ignition power for radio - 05-31-2004 , 07:13 PM






There is no power through the ignition wire for my radio. But there is on
the battery. Whihc means the 10A fuse under the dash is fine. But there
must be something else blown somewheres. I looked through the wire
schematics and it doesnt look like there is anything else that could have
blown. Anyone got any ideas?

If it's the red/white wire that's dead then do a wire around. There is a
problem somewhere in the dash wiring harness at the multi splice connector.
Sometimes the radio would go and others the lighter would go dead.

It's somewhere in the dash wiring harness. VW never said/knew where, so all
we do is wire around. You got 2 choices, run new wire from the fuse panel to
radio. Or, if the lighter still works just run the power wire from there.
