Hi,

My 6n2 gti is having a couple of intermittent electrical problems. They only seem to happen when my lights are on, they're things like my headlight washers come on when I brake or my gauge/climate control lights flash when i indicate left. I believe that the problems first started when I got caught in really heavy rain a week ago. Anyone have any ideas about how to fix it?

Thank you for the help

hmmmm, these issues are always tricky to diagnose. Do you have vagcom access? that would be a good place to start. Have you noticed evidence of water in and around the engine bay ?

My brother has vagcom so I'll plug it in when I next see him. I haven't noticed any, I'll have a closer look. I know electrical problems are really annoying to diagnose, I used to have a classic mini and I basically put a whole new loom in because of electrical issues.
cheers
