How do i fix a VW 2000 Beetle that won't start
There could be any number of problems that would cause this. Check the easiest first ( is the fuel pump working ). When you turn the key to the run position you should hear a short humm. This is the fuel pump. If you have a loose ignition coil this will cause the car to turn over but not start. Check that the wiring is attached and snug. If it comes off easily then it's loose.
What is the red thermometer symbol?
On my daughter 2000 beetle with 2.0 engine, the blue thermometer light comes on solid when you first crank it up because the coolant/engine is below operating temp. I have seen the red thermometer blink when the coolant is low.

If all that Tyler has mentioned above is found good, then there is the possibility that your computer programming has failed. It happened to my 2002 VW and the dealer said that he had never seen it happen before. They reprogram in and your key/s and charge you for the reprogramming of your keys. Good luck!
Replacing 2006 VW Beetle headlight How do you do
This is based on my 2001 Beetle, so hopefully they didn't make it any more complicated by the 2006 model year.
Open the hood and look at the inside of the headlight housing. Going from the back of the housing toward the front, there's a metal clip, then a plastic lever, then a little rectangular button with dots on it. These are all right next to each other. Pop off the metal clip, press down on the little rectangular button, then pull up on the plastic lever. It's kind of like a childproof pill bottle cap, I guess. Once you've done all those maneuvers, the headlight housing should slide out the front. Then you can unplug the wires and replace the whole unit, or open up the unit and replace just the bulb.
Since you're working on the driver's side, you'll also have the added joy of trying to work around the battery compartment. You may have to take the battery cover off to get enough room.

There should be a diagram in your Owner's Manual. I have one for my daughter's 1998 Beetle that should be the same as in the 2000 Beetle. Can email it to you if you post an email address that I can send it to.
