How to Replace Broken Wire-Harness Clips or Connectors on Audis and VWs - AxleAddict

• If you locate the break, repair it by splicing the wire or replacing the damaged section.
• Use heat-shrink tubing or electrical tape to insulate the repaired area.
• Alternatively, consider replacing the entire harness if the damage is extensive.

To locate a break in the mass sensor harness of your 2008 Jetta 2.5, follow these steps:

Identify the Problem Area:

Inspect the wiring harness visually for any visible damage, such as frayed wires, cuts, or exposed insulation.
Pay attention to areas where the harness bends or flexes, as these are more prone to wear and breakage.
Check the Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Connector:

Locate the MAF sensor connector on the harness. It's usually near the air filter box or the throttle body.
Disconnect the MAF sensor harness connector.
Inspect the Wires:

Carefully examine the wires leading to the MAF sensor connector.
Look for signs of damage, including broken wires, loose connections, or corrosion.

Use a Paper Clip (MacGyver Style):

If you don't have specialized tools, you can create your own wire release tool using a paper clip.

Straighten one end of a large paper clip for the MAF sensor connection or a small paper clip for other connections.
Curve the clip around so that the two ends are a few millimeters apart.

Remove the Broken Connector:

Gently insert the paper clip into the connector housing alongside the wire.
Push the clip until you feel resistance, then wiggle it to release the locking tab.
Pull the wire out of the connector.
Replace the Connector:

Obtain a replacement connector housing (part numbers 4B0-973-724 for MAF sensor and coils, or 4B0-973-712 for temperature sensor, AIT sensor, and throttle body).
Insert the wire into the new connector housing, ensuring it clicks securely.

Reconnect the harness to the sensor.

Verify the Repair:

Start the engine and check if the sensor is functioning properly.
Clear any diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) related to the MAF sensor using an OBD-II scanner.

Remember to be gentle when handling wire-harness clips to avoid further damage. If you encounter difficulties, consider seeking professional assistance or using zip ties as a temporary fix.

The wire antenna is removeable without breaking it. The ends of the wire that are inserted into the back of the unit are bent (L-shaped) inside the unit. With the back of the unit facing you, gently slide the left end toward the center and lift out. Then slide the right end toward the center and lift out. Reverse procedure to replace wire antenna visor clip.

if it is a top loader,,,remove the screws in each end of the control panel,,,some units you have to remove the end caps to access the screws,,,then pull slightly forward on the panel and flip it back it is on hinges,,,,then remove the 2 clips that hold the back to the base,,,unplug the lid switch,,then open the lid and grab the inner lid section and pull the rear of the base towards you slightly and lift off the base,,,, then you can access the lid switch and replace it ,,,,

The "clip" is a means of attaching to the cabinet (sheet metal). The base and cabinet need to be grounded together to be safe.

REmoce the rubber boot. Clean away all the grease from the joint. Rub your fingernail on the 3 tracks which the drive end slides on in the diff. Near the outside you will find a round wire like spring clip push a small screwdriver under it and and take the clip out. The drive end will slide out.

replace the turn signal which should come with a new wire and replace clear down to the wire connection(should even be a clip connection). don't worry about re-soldering

just order the new signal, wait for it to arrive and see what you're getting into before messin wit it

this sounds like it could be one of two things:

The lid switch doesn't work or the coupling from the motor to the transmission is broken. are you mech. inclined, as this isn't hard to do?

following is a set of steps to disassemble the machine to get to the part:

1. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the screw from each side of the console.
2. Pull the console forward and up to remove the tabs on the bottom of the end caps, out of the holes in the top.
3. Lift the console up and lay it on its back.
4. Unplug the harness connectorfor the lid switch.
5. Insert a flat screwdriver into the front edge of the clip (located on both sides), and pry back. Remove both clips from the holes in the cabinet and slide down the other end of the clips and out the slot in the rear panel.
6. Open and hold the lid while grabbing the cabinet front opening. Be sure when tilting the cabinet that the back edge clears the vacuum break.
7. Tilt the top of the cabinet toward you by pulling on the lid and opening of the cabinet. This releases the back slots of the cabinet from the tabs in the back of the base.
8. Carefully pull the cabinet away from the base of the washer and set it aside.
   Now you have access to most of the parts.

If you need to replace the switch, you will see it on the underside of the cabinet. Two screws hold this in place, with a retainer. Remove the screws and replace the unit. assemble in reverse order.

If you need to change the coupling, following are it's instructions

Now you see the pump on the front of the machine. Remove the clips there, and pull the pump straight forward. Same for motor, place a hand firmly under the motor as it will drop out once the clips are removed. On the back side of the motor, you will see three pronged retainer on motor and transmission shaft. When you buy a replacement for this, it will come with new ones if these are broken. Place the rubber onto the three pronged retainer, replace motor onto transmission and reconnect.

Reassemble in reverse order

Hope this helps

the motor to transmission coupling is broken. You need to get the cabinet off. Following are instructions for that.

1. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the screw from　each side of the console.
   
2. Pull the console forward and up to remove the tabs on the bottom of the end caps, out of the holes in the top.
   
3. Lift the console up and lay it on its back.
   
4. Unplug the harness connector　for the lid switch.
   
5. Insert a flat screwdriver into the front edge of the clip (located on both sides), and pry back. Remove both clips from the holes in the cabinet and slide down the other end of the clips and out the slot in the rear panel.
   
6. Open and hold the lid while grabbing the cabinet front opening. Be sure when tilting the cabinet that the back edge clears the vacuum break.
   
7. Tilt the top of the cabinet toward you by pulling on the lid and opening of the cabinet. This releases the back slots of the cabinet from the tabs in the back of the base.
   
8. Carefully pull the cabinet away from the base of the washer and set it aside.
   Now you have access to most of the parts.　

Now you see the pump on front, remove just the clips, you don't have to take the hoses off unless they are too much in the way but you can swing that away to get the motor off, same with just the clips. There is a coupling on the back end of the motor. This is probably broken. Go to appliance parts store in your area, for less than $20 you get new one, replace and reassemble in reverse order.

That should fixya!

10-01-2009 Sara - see solution for rlaymon 1-9-08 "Top part of base broke off" by TanyaCS on 1-20-08 - good ideas. I just fixed mine - 2 hour job + half hour to put a new cord in. Like TanyaCS my broken coupling was rusted to shaft - used WD-40 twice and let sit - meanwhile took out motor and removed fan - kept screws and washers in order on workbench (kitchen counter) - the fan hole is "D" shaped - fan end of shaft also "D" shaped - I filed a "flat" on the other side of the factory "flat" (side of 'D' that is straight) - Used big pliers on broken coupling and adjustable wrench on on the "flats" on fan end of the shaft. Broken end came right off. New cord is 18 gauge extension cord capable of at least 6 amps. Cut off the un-needed end. Or order a replacement cord $4 when you order the rubber drive coupling $4, pin with slinger washer $3. Bet you also need new rubber feet - didn't buy for mine - wish I had. Bert

depends on what the socket cpu your running is you can go bigger with the a bigger heat sink
