Where is the " auxiliary thirteenfold relay panel" located? In the dash someplace? (It's a 2000 Jetta)
The Bentley manual points to a problem with the "convenience systems w/ power windows", or something like that. I'm wondering if there is a fuse on that relay panel that burned out. It's driving me crazy! Here are the symptoms:
My remote doorlock, power lock button, domelight, anti-theft system, etc are all dead, and I'm not sure where to start looking for the root cause. First sign of trouble was a "trunk open" dash light, a minute later I discovered the trunk won't even open with the key, then the other systems listed above go AWOL.
Could a failure of the mechanical linkage between the trunk lock switch and the unlock motor screw things up like this? Or might one of the wiring harness terminal blocks near the trunk have become unplugged?
And, oh yeah - how can I open the trunk to remove the interior panel to work on it ? (no inside handle on this year!)
