working on 2000 jetta gl 4 cylinder auto turn car off
Sent to VW Experts April 28 11:04 AM

working on 2000 jetta gl 4 cylinder, auto, I turn car off and dash lights stay lite, rear dome lights and rear license plate all stay lite..... remove battery lead and replace and dome lights go out but the dash stays lite...
I pulled out the headlight switch, lights still all came on, Nothing seems to have been done to the car prior to this issue. Where does the dash lights get there power..??? Is there a relay inline that could be faulty?? Anyone.....
