Trail_Biker Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Had the issue with the interior light not coming on when you unlock the car and the alarm going off if you don't put the key in the ignition quick enough.So got a new microswitch for the "door latch open" indication on the lock module and fitted it. Interior light now works fine when you open the door. But.....when I try and lock the door with the key nothing happens! You can lock it from the lock/unlock rocker switch on the drivers door and then unlock it from the outside, but not lock it from outside......very strange (I can hear the microswitch operating though).Just for good measure the alarm goes off for no apparent reason.I shall order a complete new door lock module and fit that. Will then see if I have buggered up something else inside the old one!Anybody near Ipswich got Vagcom? (apart from the dealers).Cheers.

Skezza Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 I would be tempted at this point to give up repairing and for a new pattern part. Cheap and will save your sanity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trail_Biker Posted March 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Yup, I have ordeted a complete lock Module off fleabay. Shall see what happens after that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennyx_o Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Does your remote central locking work? I have the same issue, interior light working and alarm goes off if you don't turn the ignition quick enough. I assumed it was the CCM but if it's the door lock I'll replace that and see if it resolves the issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trail_Biker Posted March 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 I think you will find it's the "door latch open" microswitch.I have just received my new lock module, so will fit it later and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennyx_o Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Cheers lads. I've recently replaced the passenger side lock, but I'll have the drivers side one replaced and hopefully it'll sort the remote central locking too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpsh120 Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Did the new lock cure the problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trail_Biker Posted March 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Sure did fix it.Just need to find out if mine has remote central locking......not sure how you know if it's fitted? Mine only came with one standard key Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
