Auto Parts: help with vw bug pls, pep boys, fog lights


Question
my wife owns a 2000 vw Bug and last night see lost headlight fog lights turn siganls horn heater fan i looked at all fuses none were bad can you help  

Answer
Hi Aaron,

Sounds to me like a power-distribution problem. Multiple systems were affected so I'd rule out a single fuse or relay. I'd check the main power supply going to the fuse/relay center under the hood from the battery to make sure it is not broken, disconnected or grounded.

Looking for a reputable service technician? My advice on finding a good technician is: Steer clear of the dealership and 'chain' stores like Firestone, Sears, Pep Boys, Monro Muffler/Brake, Midas, etc. as they usually only employ ONE ASE Certified Tech just so they can say they do and chances are, that guy is the asst. manager or manager and is not in the store to diagnose/repair vehicles anyway. Find a service location in the link below or get some names out of the yellow-pages and do a drive-by. Garages that employ ASE Certified Technicians will be marked with the 'Blue-Seal' insignia. If unsure about whether a place employs Certified Techs, just ask to see their credentials. ALL ASE Certified Technicians will be PROUD to show and display their certificate(s).

Thanks for the question, I hope this information was helpful to you.
