I have a 98 Wolfburg Ed Jetta. 2.0L Nothing special but still fun. Recently Lights,A/C Fan P Brake Light In Dash started having issues. When p brake is released the brake light near the speedometer stays dimmly lit. When this happens (which is pretty much all the time now) I have no headlights or cabin fan or a/c. The brights come on momentarily when switching from hi to low or back to low but dont stay on. Thanks for any help

Ya, Gov. Conspiracy. Just kidding. I saw another post and almost did a copy n paste. I haven't had time to get deep into it but fuses r good. Am thinkin, bad ground somewhere? maybe p brake off switch to start? If you got a idea or think of something , fling it my way. Thanks

Its your ignition switch man, just replaced one on my 98 GT. its about a $15 part. I bought mine off this site here. https://www.autohausaz.com. I have no doubt thats your problem. I too had all the same symptoms.

Ya Mitch your right, but if I hold the wiper squirter and flash the brights the wipers and squirters work. Weird ya.
And jettblack, thanks . Going to get a ignition switch and hopefully be movin on. Thanks in advance
