Vw passat door lock actuator removal.
This issue also indicates a bad lock actuator.
Raise support the vehicle safely according to manufacturer jacking supporting positions.
The bit that looks like a lock should be in there.
I have a picture.
The actuator can now be removed.
The door lock works in only one direction.
All the instruction indicate i m to loosen two nuts to release the window but i don t see any nuts.
If this happens the problem is with the remote.
Locks work from the switch but not the remote.
Once removed this gives you access to remove the cable from the door handle.
Loosen this off and it should allow you to remove part of the door handle.
When where needed.
I see a threaded bolt but no nuts.
In this video i have a vw s rear door panel removed while the door is locked and the lock actuator which is on deadlock released.
