2000 TDi Jetta ECM problem?
Posted: Thu Jan 02, 2014 11:26 am
Hi everyone and thanks in advance for any help you may be able to offer for my problem. My 2000 Jetta has developed a no start problem recently. Here are the details:
It is a manual transmission car, standard trim, no power seats or fancy stereo.
Key in position 2, no glow plug light, and no CEL
My scan tool which has pulled OBD2 faults for me in the past will not establish communication now.
Engine will crank just fine, but of course no start.
Battery cable fuses are in good shape, no corrosion, none are burned through.
I just recently had to install a new ignition lock housing which came with a new ignition switch as part of the assembly. Everything worked just fine after the replacement so I do not suspect this as a problem, but it was the most recent thing that has been done to to car so I figure it is worth mentioning.
