Re: 01Jetta::Electrical Problem??

I will add mine to the list. I'll bet we will narrow this down
  • One time and One time only I got a MAF lock on the computor. Never again after that.
  • Anti Slip light will come on for no reason.... I still think that it is link in some way to the engine problem
  • Battery goes dead overnight (sometimes) Yes, Battery and Alt replaced and it is not the CD changer I disconnected that
  • And a new one today while driving engine stumble twice. Just kind of felt like hitting a bump in the road.
THE CAR RUNS LIKE A TOP AND HAS PLENTY OF POWER AND GOOD FUEL MILEAGE

==================================
well... here is my long list of symptoms
  • stalls sometimes when im at a stop sign.. car will be completely dead but i can always restart it.. Same Problem
  • stalls sometimes when im at a stop sign.. car will restart itself... Doesn't do this
  • radio will shut off when my automatic door locks (when i reach a certain speed) Doesn't do this
  • sometimes when it stalls, it seems like my battery was disconnected cause my clock and my radio stations resets itself Doesn't do this
  • sometimes it takes a few tries to start my car... this only happens occasionally.... not as much as the stop sign stalling..Same Problem
  • at night, when i turn on my lights... i feel like its pulling too much from the battery.. my lights will flicker when i turn any signals on, emergency light or even pull down the front seat mirror Doesn't do this
i do notice that all this happens when i have my AC, lights and radio on... when i dont turn my radio on... i havent had a problem yet... but then again, these symptoms are sporatic.

already had my alternator changed ($600).Same Free Buddy in Rebuild Business and it was ok replaced the recifier just in case . now i have to get this faulty piece of crap changed which is going to cost me ($1,000).... last repair i make.... ill keep everyone posted once i get my car fixed (which probably wont be for another month or so....
I'll let you spend the money first
