Description of the problem	First noticed headlight out, changed it and still did not work. Then i noticed that the front turn signal also did not work. I walked around the car and noticed that not only did the front headlight and turn signal not work but also the opposite rear brake and turn signal as well. Clearly something is wrong. I went to check the fuse it was completely melted as was the box itself! You can not just replace the fuse because the box is damaged and you can't just replace the box because there is to much ampage going to the box that will cause it to do the same thing again! Vw needs to make this wrong, right!
