Hi, I've found a 1996 Jetta for sale locally with the asking price of
1,000.00. Sounds great, but there is a problem (isn't there always a problem?)The car hasn't run since a fire under the driver's side of the dash caught fire. The seller says he really doesn't know what happened... but he put the fire out with his foot. He took it to his mechanic, and the mechanic told him he needs a new wiring harness.
I just replaced the wiring harness on my daughter's car. It was annoying, but I did it.
I really would like to try the repair, and the Jetta looks decent. It has about 114k of highway miles, is a stick,and the body is fine.
My question is .. should I give it a go? Does it sound like a monster problem and stay away?
Thanks in advance for suggestions/advice!
Larry
