be fuse gone happens on mine 10 amp fuse in fuse box forgot which numebr though sorry.

 

[Reuvers]

fuse box in car or up front in engine bay?

 

[ChrisCurzon]

in the car

 

[Reuvers]

passenger side under glove box right?
how does the shielding come off??? pulling isn;t doing it much good...

 

[ChrisCurzon]

its under drives steering wheel in ares but dont know if pasanger side as your is left hand drive, just pull cover off

 

[Reuvers]

you mean where you plug in vagcom? WHere the huge fuses are?

 

[ChrisCurzon]

yea thast the 1 bottom row of fuses as theres 2 row's

 

[Reuvers]

you mean one of these?

 

[ChrisCurzon]

no the normal fuses like the blue and green ones in that pic

 

[Reuvers]

yeah ok....found it now

there is one brown one which is burnt through/

gonna go buy a new one nw and I'll see if that fixes it...
then to MOT...better be that one! lol

although can't really laugh about this...any other day would have been ok...

 

[ChrisCurzon]

its normally a red 1 that causes that problem just check all fuses see if any more have gone.

 

[DPJ]

For the future, can you say exactly which fuse please?

 

[ChrisCurzon]

would but cant remember at min and in work will check it after for you just know its a red 10 amp one

 

[Reuvers]

hey mate chris, gotta say a huge huge shout of thanks goes out to you. I am slightly color blind so thought it was brown but its actually red!
Got a new one and all is well again! 10 codes deleted and boost is back to normal!

Car is at MOT station (vw Adui dealer) now, but when I get it back I will take a picture and circle the one you need to swap when this happens to anyone else in the future.

again chris thanks!

 

[ChrisCurzon]

no problem mate had it afew mins on mine why i knew what it was straight away. would of said waht number it was if could look at car but in work. least you got it sorted now!

 

[Reuvers]

yeah cheers for that

however, I failed MOT

I have a decat and it was a no go...now I'm gutted. I need to put my old DP back on, however then I have to go from 2" DP to 2.5" catback. Hwever they do not seel those clamps in that size (reducing) anywhere here.

DO you think that if I used a forge silicone hose in that size it would be allowed?

 

[Reuvers]

I mean if that gum gum stuff is allowed then that should be too right?

 

[Myki da Pyki]

Im sure if you used one of the forge silicone hoses it'l get it through the MOT but would take it straight back off after mate. Gungum will just get blown clean out so no point using that reuvers.

Was it only the decat it failed on?

 

[DPJ]

Sorry to here that, Reuvers!

Are you sure a silicon hose will take 600+ degree C exhaust temps?

Any chance of identifying exactly which fused cured the problem?
