Question:
Do I need any fuse bypasses for a 2014 VW Jetta?

Expert Reply:
You don't need to pull any fuses when flat towing your 2014 Volkswagen Jetta so a fuse bypass isn't necessary, but I will say that if you will be using a braking system that pulls power from your vehicle battery you'll want to add the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit # RM-156-25 to keep your battery from draining.
For a complete flat towing setup you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low adapter. If you do not have all of these components just let me know and I can make some additional recommendations for you.
