i took my car to the mechanic to have my ecu reprogrammed.
he said it would not work.

Then he said he think he blew a fuse.
I got my beetle back and the windows will not roll up and the electronic mirrors do not work either.

Does anyone know what fuse that is that controls that?

There is a fuse for this circuit in the fuse panel at the drivers' end of the dash board - its number 5. Also a 30amp fuse at the top of the fuse/relay panel near the base of the steering column. Either will stop the windows.
Think I'd find another mechanic!
Good Luck.

yeah well the rain rained inside my car he left the windows open outside in the rain too. Everything seems ok. I have the leather seats so i hope they are not damaged.

What amp is that number 5 fuse.

What fuse controls the cluster and dash lights?

well I checked all the fuses in by the driver door dash box. They look good. I checked under my steering wheel and I see a giant fuse missing in the 30a bottom section. That is the only one missing.

I wonder if thats it. I think I will call the auto parts and try to buy one. there was a tiny green 30 fuse at the bottom there and two 15 tiny fuse at the top that are good still.

I called the auto parts store to buy another 30a relay fuse so I can get my power windows power mirrors working again but they said I need the numbers on the relay to get a new one.

I said it was taken and they said call the dealer. The dealer put me on hold last time for 2 hours. Does anyone know that part number on that relay or fuse in the 30a marked spot on the lowest section of the fuse relay box under the steering wheel?

G'Day Bratt, sorry I cannot help you with fuse numbers - but why not get the old fuse and solder some fuse wire to bridge the fuse (like we did in the old days).
You sound like a handy sort of bloke so really you shouldn't be getting a mechanic to fix your car when you can do it yourself.

30a is the main power relay fuse according to some google searches.

power windows, power mirrors are out.
I need the numbers on the fuse!

Sorry mate but I cannot help you with the type or number of that 30A fuse - my manual doesn't list it as it only lists fuses that are on the fuse panel and this one sits on top of the relay panel.
Good Luck.
