Power Steering Fuse F13

[billyboy2591]

Power Steering Fuse F13, 5 Amps keeps blowing. Intermittent but when it does blow it appears to happen at start up and not when driving. Power steering stops working and dash light comes on.Have change power steering pump but suspect the blown fuse was the problem not the pump. Haynes states F13 is for Power Steering and Engine Management. Any ideas? Anyone have a full wiring diagram, not cover in the Haynes.

Thanks Little Red. But this does tie in with the Haynes Manual. Really wanted a wiring diagram which I cannot find. Really trying to see what could be causing the fuse to blow.

The only place you will find the wiring diagram will be from Elsawin (VW Workshop Software)

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem with 2008 Cordoba 6L on LPG.
F13 fuse is burning and servo stops operating, warning light on the dash comes on.
If I place good fuse just for a second and remove it, servo starts working (without a fuse present) and works until engine is stopped. After engine is restarted, I need to reinsert the fuse for a second and I get servo operational. If I keep the fuse in, eventually it will burn and servo will stop. In the moment the fuse is burning, engine is stalling a bit but it continues to operate.
Any idea is appreciated, including the wiring diagram for this car.
Thank you.
