Fuse 26 continually blows with ignition on. Obviously from the fuse the circuit is going to ground. Have disconnected door looms, disconnected Central locking motor in boot, checked tailgate wiring ( eventhough pneumatic actuator for tailgate). My wiring diagram shows output from fuse 26 going directly to pin 12 of central locking pump. I have bypassed existing wiring and put fused 12v supply to pin 12 and yes C/L works but no windows. Furthermore, having reassembled the car seems to be immobilised - it starts and stalls. Fault code reading engine control unit there is a recurrent fault of "Control Unit Disabled". Where else does the black wire from fuse 26 go and how have my actions immobilised the Engine management?
Car electrics are a nightmare. the car lights up when a door is open i presume. and by bypassing the central locking. the electric computer says there is a fault. and will not start. that i think is programed in. best thing to do is. go to phone VW dealer ask about diagnostic test without repair. about £35 then fix it yourself. they garentee it right I think. the dealers have come into line better with that kind of thing phone and ask anyway.
