Electrical issues
Posted: Thu Jan 27, 2022 11:23 pm
Hey,
I recently got myself a 2003 polo with 55k on the clock which I thought was incredible, and it does live up to its name in that regard mostly. There are few nitpicking things I'd want to adress so here they are. Most these issues are I believe to be electrical issues as:
Punching in the reverse gear causes the air recirculator to turn on everytime, however the lamp does not always turn on and so will turn off when coming out of reverse
Sometimes the reverse gear even being disengaged will leave the recirculator running, resulting in me having to press the button to turn it off, sometimes twice
The cold setting on the air con does not always result in cold air being blown straight away, sometimes needing me to set to full blast to make the air cool down and then I can reduce the speed, but sometimes it will go hot again
I think originally the seller had possibly had problems with water damage? I would want to get these issues resolved, possibly myself as I dont mind tinkering and saving some money, but at the same time without taking it apart I won't have any idea as to what is wrong.
Any help appriciated, thanks!
