Weird electrical problem
I have a 93 tsi, and today when I was driving everytime i hit my brakes my headunit would turnoff, I got home turn off my car, go to turn it back on and nothing. Jumped it, it started, so i bought a new battery. Starts fine. Now I have no acc functions, my radio doesnt work when i turn the ignition to acc.And when I turn the car off one click (from on to acc) after driving, my radio just turns off. My power door locks or keyless entry dont work now either. I dont have the cover for my fuse case So i dont know if there is a fuse for acc or not. Anyone have any idea what the problem is? And a pic of the interior fuse case cover would be appreciated, thanks.

Re: Weird electrical problem
Its a fuse in the box up under the hood. Your old battery was probably fine and didn't need to be replaced. The problem is the fuse for your alternator is blown, its a big wierd looking fuse and costs like 3 dollars I think. With it blown your battery won't charge and some of your accesories won't work.

Re: Weird electrical problem
Sounds like a bad ground... Bad grounds can cause all sorts of wierd problems like that. I recently had a foglight on the Firebird that would come and go whenever it pleased. I finally tore the whole thing apart to find an extremely corroded ground wire. Replaced it, sanded everything up and its had no problems since.
