Hi there,
I bought a car but didn't checked this things...so I am a bit stuck and would need some help.
1. After I turn button to red one (hot air) there is hot air coming in cabin only for 15 sec afterwards it's just cold air.. also after 30 min I do the same thing, just hot air for 15 sec..
2. Most of the time on motorways in evenings or night time engine temperature drops below 90C , I would say to 70C sometimes even to middle 50C..
3. There is no lights working inside.. what could be a problem ? Is there separate fuse for inside lights ?
I scanned car with 'VCDS-Lite' and found this error:
1 Fault Found:
17664 - Engine Coolant Temp Sensor (G62): Open or Short to Plus
P1256 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
My question is: is this error somehow related to temperature droppings and no hot air in cabin longer than 15 sec ? what could be problem for no hot air coming in ?
As I live in Europe I have an EU VW car.
Also I found something on ebay the engine sensors...
Looks like they are two different sizes, which one do I need ?

when I will replace do I need to be aware of something ? like oil pressure?
