you have to put the key in ignition, and turn the key to on and lock for ten times. this will reset the computer only . unhooking the positive from battery will do nothing with lights on dash if problem, wasn't repaired.
If you mean the battery wires look at the battery terminals the positive terminal is always the biggest diameter
Disconnect the positive post from your battery for a few minutes, reconnect and let your car work the rest out. If it still comes on, you still have problems
where is the computer othe vw jetta
Yes Of Course. When Replacing Any Battery Remove The Negative Cable First, Then The Positive. Then Installing The New Battery Install The Positive Cable First Then The Negative. Dear reader; Many computer equiped autos have no protection against damage if the battery is installed backwards. Some have fuses in critical circuits which offer some protection. Jump starting can also cause these fuses to fail. Dwight
it should reset itself... if not, you may need to take it in to have it repaired

Begin by removing the positive cable from your 1998 VW Jetta battery. Remove the cables from the front of the starter. Remove the starter retaining bolts. There will be three starter retaining bolts.
Your battery is bad, your alternator is bad or you have a wiring problem.
Its a Power Surge When you attach the new battery.

It's slightly to the left of the battery, and deep. If you look at the battery connectors/cables you will see that the positive one (red) has an extra wire that is thinner than the main one, follow it down and it should be connected to the starter/syllanoid.
the computer is located by the windshield wiper motor
Could be your battery, starter, ignition, check them... would start with the battery !

Get a NOCO "Settings Keeper" from Walmart in the automotive section next to the car batteries.
How long does it take for the computer to reset on VW jetta after service of engine light problem. Won't pass smog drove 130 miles has not reset?
There is nothing to reset. Just change the battery and if you have it in correctly it will work.
The starter relay on a VW Jetta is located in the engine compartment fuse box. This fuse box is located on top of the battery.
have you checked the alternator??? that's the first thing that comes to my mind if your battery is being drained
