I'm working on this 1996 VW golf Sport AUTOMATIC with a electrical and brake problem. Here's what i know so far...THe car starts but it cannot get out of park.
1.) Both rear tail lights dont work.
2.) Car starts fine but cannot shift any gears
3.) Fuse #20 which is the brake light keeps shorting out the fuses....i changed it 3 times and POP! blows the fuses.
4.) Check the rear tail lights and one of them has a broken bulb
5.) Rear tail lights are missing some wire plugs that plug into the tail light itself.
My hypothesis is that there is an electrical problem which is causing to short the Brake light fuse which causes the auto tranny not to detect brakes when trying to shift gears. My plan is to buy new bulbs and the missing plug adapters and hopefully it would work. The grounds are all connected too....sigh...damn VW's
