DO NOT KILL IT.. otherwise you gotta pop the hood and do it over again..
what caused it to just randomly break though??
Drilled a hole in the solenoid spade housing. sheet metal screw makes elec contact to the broken spade.
Goddamn, that there is some ingenuity if I ever did saw.

That is good old hillbilly right there. If I ever sold my jetta I would not only have a list of things not typically seen or found in a bentley manual, but I would also have a list of parts from various VW cars newer and older than mine...so they could find that the front wheel bearings are NOT from an 86 before they went to replace them.Good fix sir.
