I made a big mistake. When replacing a battery cable I forgot to write down what fuse and cable went to the right location on the engine fuses located on top on the battery.

2001 Jetta

Should be simple enough for someone with a 01 to snap a picture and use it as a reference.

HEMIHD,

Right, if anyone could snap a picture and tell me the amperage of the fuses 1-5, that would be great!

I took 2 pictures. Not sure about the 1st and 2nd wires, they are both the same and mine crisscross each other.Black wire on 5, largest red wire on 4, Red with black on 3 and then the other two I am not sure of. How do I upload a picture to this site in the message area?

Left to right. S177 - S176 - S164 - S163 - S162 (These are the metal fuses)

From Engine side to Fender side:
S177 (Large Black) is Generator 90 amp or 120 amp. Fuse is 110A for 90 Amp gen and 150 A for the 120 amp.

S176 (Large Red) is Interior relay panel - 110A

S164 (Red w/ black) is Coolant fan and control module - 40 A

S163 (Red) is Fuel pump relay or glow plug relay - 50 A

S162 (Red) is Secondary Air Injection or coolant pre-heatling relay - 50 A


Don't know if that will help you or not. Like Lefty said, Black is on far left toward engine. Large Red is next. Red w/ Black is the next. Don't think it makes any difference for the last two as you are just supplying power to them and they are same amp rating.
