SOURCE: Airbag light remains on after changing fuse of rear wiper.VW POLO

This is a common occurance in vw's.
In order to turn off the airbag light you need to have a scan tool hooked up to your car because the airbag detected a fault of some sort, or it could be a faulty component in the airbag system itself.

SOURCE: replace rear window brake light bulb

I just had to do this, and it isn't all that easy or quick. First, gently work the gray, carpet like cover loose from the area around the tail light ,(this may give you a little trouble). Once you have done this, you will see three silver nuts. These must be unscrewed. The lower left nut must be accessed through a hole next to where the trunk lid fits. (The screws are permanently attached to the lens housing so will not drop into obscurity when the nuts are removed). After removing the nuts, GENTLY work the lens housing away from the car. You may need a screw driver to unseat the housing, but just be gentle.

You will find three bulbs inside the lens. The brake light bulb is on the lower right side. Simply pull the old bulb out and insert the new one.

Just reverse these directions to reassemble the housing.

SOURCE: I need to replace the rear brake pads on my Polo 1.9 TDi

this is a turn in caliper, meaning that as you try to compress the piston, you also need to rotate it clockwise. you can buy tool for this at nearly any parts store, and is fairly inexpensive.

Testimonial: "Thank you for your assistance. I found out the turning piston part by mistake, a day after I posted the question, when I tried to use a G-Clamp."

2019 VW Polo driver side tail light not working despite changing bulbs

Try a few basic checks. Take a good close look at the original bulb. is there any sign of dirt, rust or corrosion on it? 'Drop out' the rear light cluster and open it to get access to the bulbs. Check the connector for the light cluster isn't dirty or damaged. Have a really good look at the wiring board all the bulbs fit into and check for any damage. Remove the new bulb and look into the hole it goes into. Again your looking for rust, corrosion and damage. Do you have access to a volt meter or a multimeter? You can check for power to the connector plug inside the vehicle. (about 12 volts DC). You should have enough cable for the connector to connect the bulb holder section to the car. Turn on the tails lights and check for power to the actual bulb socket. (again about 12 volts DC). This will help work out where the power loss is to that bulb.

Vw polo fuse for the indicators keeps blowing

Mine did the same. I would change the fuse and test. It would work and as soon as I drive it would pop. I realised that the brake lights were on the same circuit. Remove the rear lights and replace your bulbs. It worked for me. Good luck.
