Yesterday, my dad and I did a DIY repair for our 2002 9N Polo (replacing a worn component of the gearbox). It was driving fine just after the repair, but a few hours later, the car wouldn't start; there's no spark, and no petrol seems to be getting to the engine. We examined the engine itself, and nothing appears to physically be out of place, so it's most likely an electrical issue.

We checked all of the relevant fuses, but it's still not working.

We have been looking all over for websites/PDFs that have a service repair manual for this model, but we can't find anything (at least anything that doesn't cost R800+)

Do you guys know where someone could find a service manual for this model specifically , or do you know how to remotely contact someone who could give advice on this issue? I know there is a website called AllDataDIY, but that's only in America.

I would also greatly appreciate any piece of advice/info that you guys could give on this situation

Thank you in advance

Yesterday, my dad and I replaced a component of the gearbox that was worn out. The car drove fine right after we replaced the part, but a few hours later, the car won't start at all. There is no engine spark, and no fuel seems to be getting into the engine. We checked the engine itself, and nothing physically seems out of place, so it's most likely an electrical issue.

We checked the relevant fuses, and none of them are burnt out/disconnected, so we are at a loss here.

I would greatly appreciate anyone's help with this. I am not very knowledgeable about car mechanics, but if you guys need any further details, I can provide them.

Thank you in advance
