Hello all,

I received permission from the Mods (thanks Ben T and David) to post this
inquiry as I'm in a pickle and need to get this car running sooner rather
than later as my Vanagon needs a transmission and is sitting idle until I
can scratch up the funds to get it repaired.  Here is my issue:

Hello all,

I have a 1990 Jetta GL with a N/A 1.6. I just completed a clutch job. Upon
first attempt to start after the clutch job resulted in a no start and odd
electrical issues. Here's a video outlining my issue....

Additional info not noted in the youtube vid:

The "seatbelt needing to be plugged in to start" has been bypassed for a
few years with no issues...

I cleaned all the connectors that mate with the battery with a wire
dremel/wire wheel ...

I'm reviewing wiring diagrams in the Bentley...

Any input would be appreciated...

Please do not respond via Reply all and simply just respond to me
privately.

Thanks!
