Lost my charging cable so trying to use different ones. I have 2 lights that flash a few times then stop as well but it's the middle light and the light beside the fully charged battery. What does that mean?
Sorry not for a seat I know its part of the vw range however I'm guessing they may have changed the locking mechanism All I can say is a pain but your gonna have to take door card off good luck
Thanks, I will try it. Actually the door has been stuck for ages. I took it to an auto car wash, the rotating brushes hitting the car must have had the same effect of what you have shown. I tried the door and it it was open! didn't last long though. Stuck again.
It will happen every time you lock your car so if you have a mk 5 golf you will have to have the door open to change the locking mechanism as you have to take the outer door panel off to replace it good luck 😁
so many thanks for the video! I only pushed the locking button on drivers door and so my right backdoor was working again. Last 2 years i changed after and after all the locks at the doors. Now only one is left, the right back door. And your video was very helpful to avoid to do the works by closed door.Thank you so much again! kind Regards from Germany!
Yea, as long as it’s unlocked already, I just give the doors a thump on the door handle itself where the key goes in for the fronts, that makes the latch in behind reset better because there’s a spring inside that rubs against it. If you open it up, put a bit of grease behind the spring. There’s 2 springs, not the one that makes your door handle go back, it’s the other useless one. You can just take it all together, then door will work fine
Thanks very much mate. Pretty much as the comment below. Mk5, 08 golf worked first time. Driver's door, saved a right nightmare. As the door would not open.
Hey man my dad forget his keys in the car and the car has locked if we try this method for unlocking the rear door is it going to work to get in the car
Hi I have just left the battery connected to the Dock until needed it hasn't had any ill affect as yet and I've had my shark over two years I hope that helps 😁
This trick worked for me and the same door as yours aswell. But this is just a temporary fix. What did you have to do fix it permanently? How did you sort yours?
Unfortunately you have to change the door lock from vw there about £200 or you can try a scrap place and get a second had one a lot cheaper but you roll the dice as such and dont forget you have to take the outer door skin off to replace it good luck 😁
I have the same car same fault, AUDI PERTH did the test and charged me $650 to do it, and then told me $14000 to repair. this was already fixed by Audi when the car had less than 10 000Ks I am happy for you your Audi Dealer has scruples. Well done good result.

Hi is it Normal for one flashing light by battery symbol when on charge or is that just Charging ?
Yes one flashing light is normal charging then that will become solid and the next light will flash until fully charged
