Wow that's a good price!
Where did you get it from?
Is it VW part?

Very common problem. Jason aka Compu_85 did a good writeup on this. Its actually a stickey at the top of one of the forums I thought. It should have been easy to find. It should also come up with a "no start" search???n5rdv said:Edit: called my mechanic, at my SO's recommendation. Men just won't stop to ask directions. There's a gate in the intake that was stuck closed. I touched the lever and it snapped open. Car started right up, though with a cloud from all the attempts I'd made.
How about 601?ivanlya said:a little confused as there is no 109... any advise?
thank you for your response. i double checked: there is no 109 or 601.TornadoRed said:How about 601?
No. I think it would turn over, but I'm not even sure about that. No dashboard lights, no power to engine control module, so no instructions to injection pump to inject fuel.ivanlya said:not sure where 109 is... could car operate without it?
The most-unreliable ones were installed in the 1999-2001 models -- the one in your 2005 should be very reliable. HOWEVER, it would still be a good idea to pick up a spare and keep it in the glove box. It is better to have one and not need it, than to need one and not have it. Plus they are cheap, a whole lot cheaper than a towing bill.adamant628 said:How can I tell if I have the new or old relay. I have a 2005 Jetta wagon that I purchased used a little over a month ago.
It might be.Lyle Millard said:my 202 golf won't run an every thing else seems to be ok i was driving along an the engine just stoped an never ran again i was wondering if it could be this 109 relay thanks
Yes, that would cause the engine to stop without warning. I don't know if it's common.Lyle Millard said:thanks red I have checked everything I 'm not getting any fuel to my enjectors could it be the pump
A few bad beer can really throw a wrench into them printing presses.Lug_Nut said:<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by TGOLF:
Be careful as TurboSteve noted that the numbers on relays you pull or replace can be inverted. Speaks volumes to the quality...don't you think?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Maybe that's why neither of mine failed. They aren't 109 after all. They are actually 601's!
And just this morning not only was my entire newspaper printed upside down but the fold was on the right!
