Good tips men thanks a lot

Man, you just saved my life and my car. A few days ago it ran for 3 days straight here in Southern California. And I noticed water all on my floor board. Shortly after all the electrical stuff started to go haywire. Then The car just ceased to crank. I was about to abandon my car, and I found you on KZread. My problem was that the whole electrical unit that's encased in removable plastic case, was completely submerged underwater underneath my floorboard. Took it out opened it up drain the water and it started right up! Thanks man!

Your transmission "black box" is under the passenger floorboard if you're ever looking for it.

I replaced my module but couldn't figure out how it got wet till today. My 99 Passat has a sunroof and the drains were plugged so water ran down firewall passed fuse box and you guessed it into to comfort module. I also removed a metal drain plug behind drivers seat and it's still draining water.. Thanks for video hopefully my comment will help someone else!!

Thank you. Thank you thank you. You saved me a lot. On my 2003 vw golf. Your video helps me get back on the rode without no towing and Mecanic.

Nice! Thanks for watching!

I suggest doing a capacitive discharge of the car battery before changing out parts. Disconnect both battery terminals, starting with the ground - (negative), connect both connection leads with a jumper wire for at 1 minute. Reconnect both battery terminals, hopefully that helps. That worked with my car!

Thank you, great explanation! Would a similar wiring issue cause a fuse to burn, ‘10 Passat under 90kmiles, FUSE 28, rendering the car TOTALLY unresponsive, inoperable….fuse was replaced with no explanation. Thanks!

you have to revise the fuses, can be a battery those two are the main thing to look for. you dont want to mess with the wires carpet is unfolded difficult to put back together...

Thanks so much 🎉 this fixed my 2005 Passat 🎉

I have a 2009 b6 Passat, 2.0T with the same issue. Not starting. I replaced the 406 relay but same problem. I ordered 2 109 relays, but I cannot find it anywhere. Not under the dashboard, anywhere. I will try this early in the morning. It’s been 3 weeks since, now my rotors are getting very rusted from inactivity.

Thanks for the video. My 2006 VW Passat just stopped working two days ago. The Low Oil Pressure light came on and the car was pulled over immediately but now it won’t start. When I try to start it, the engine sounds like it’s spinning but no start. I’m gonna have a friend check out the wires like you said. Any more advice? Thanks so much! 👍🏽🙏🏽

Well if it's definitely not this issue then you may wanna get on VW Passat forums. There could be many reasons. If you have a check engine light on, a scan tool would be a good investment to see what codes or coming up. I hope this helps.

Does this apply to 2001 models too?

You may want to check if the fuel pump is working. If your in the car with the windows up and top up turn the key to first position (not trying to start it). You should hear a slight hum. You could pull the seats down to help hearing. The pump should be located in the truck area. If you do hear it then there's many possibilities for why it's not starting. If you don't you can find a bunch of videos of how to replace it. I had a no start issue a couple of times with the vw and the pump was one of the big ones. There's also some electronics that go bad. I forget the one I replaced for no start but it was a little sensor on the driver of engine where you can't really see it. Not to overwhelm but it could be crankshaft position sensor or ignition coils. To be honest my experience with the vw was troubleshooting every couple of months.

First thing you should know (unless you like walking) is NEVER let your gas get low enough to run dry, it’s the best way to burn out your fuel pump regardless of car type… and THAT can be very pricey to fix

Replaced the cam sensor with an off brand a couple months ago.. scanner has been saying it needs a new PCM, haven't replaced it yet. It stated at -2° outside now will not start at 36°. I am seeing RPM's on dash while cranking, and on scanner data. No codes. Can hear fuel pump kick on behind me, has new high pressure mechanical fuel pump and follower on engine. I dunno anymore.
