I just had this same problem with my 1998 VW Jetta. My parking brake light came on one day, but only half illuminated. Shortly after my windshield wipers and headlights stopped working.

To change the crankshaft sensor on a 1998 Volkswagen Jetta, first disconnect the battery to ensure safety. Locate the crankshaft position sensor, which is usually found near the bottom of the engine block, and disconnect the electrical connector. Remove any bolts securing the sensor, then carefully pull it out. Install the new sensor by reversing the steps: insert the new sensor, secure it with bolts, reconnect the electrical connector, and finally reconnect the battery.
