Feedback Corner
This week’s feedback is from Giulio regarding a 2013 VW Jetta Wiring Diagram. He states:
“The J17 relay is not in position R3. That position is blank with no wires going to it. The relay
is actually in position R4.”
This feedback was reviewed by the Service Information team and was resolved. We really
appreciate Giulio sending in feedback to help improve the quality of the repair Information.

If within a few seconds the ignition is switched OFF, the fuel door release is
activated, and then the ignition is switched ON again (up to 2 seconds after fuel
door release activation, depending on CAN network status), the engine control
module may lose its basic settings of the fuel door lock. The complaint may be that
the fuel door release switch is non-functional. This condition will prevent the fuel
door from being opened. The engine control module must be re-programmed in
order to correct this concern.
Production Solution: Final production countermeasure pending.

Volkswagen has found that, in some cases the hazard switch and flasher system
function in affected vehicles may degrade over time because of distortion and
material transfer of the contacts of certain hazard switch relays (which occurs due to
substantially increased electrical current load from higher-wattage turn signal
bulbs). This may result in intermittent or inoperative turn signal and hazard flasher
function.
