Re: HELP! FUSE QUESTION!!!!!

 Great theft deterrent.

Sounds to me like somebody has wired the car wrong.

reversed the wiring to the coil.

something of that nature.....and connected the Backup light wire to
the wrong side of the coil.

I am quite sure this has been discussed before for some reason as a
"Do not do this" type of discussion.

Usually that would just kill the engine without blowing a fuse AFAIK.

Yes the ign wire to the coil should not have a fuse, but I have seen that
before. Esp. when there was a wiring problem that caused the wires to burn
up previously.

later,

I didn't think that VW ever ran the ignition thru any fuse. The backup
light SHOULD have its own fuse in an inline holder next to the coil.
