Followed this guide recently and it went like a dream. I found that taking/leaving the door lock bolts out made it easier to get the plastic shield out and in. An unexpected bonus is that it seems to have also cured the parasitic battery drain which has plagued me for over five years. Result!! Huge thanks to you.
Thanks a million ! I watched this and another tutorial with my son and we were able to keep the working micro switch but make it a more snug fit in the cam. Drop, courtesy light, door open notification and lights-on alarm now working.
Glad it helped!
Dude! Your camera work and detailed descriptions help sooooo much. Really appreciate it. Excellent.
Cheers Bryn.. Was struggling to get the lock mechanism detached and your video helped a treat! Managed to get the switch working again with a bit of tweaking..
Thank you so much for your videos. Great camera shots and perfectly explained. Working on my TT myself is very rewarding and watching your videos helped me so much! Cheers, Michael
I had to this procedure last year, great video as always 😊👍
Great video, going to attempt this in a few weeks to fix my driver side microswitch 👍
This is the best video of this job.
Best video I've seen on this job. Getting ready to tackle it myself for TAKE 2...take one I got the door card off and the cables undone only to discover I don't have any 12pt spline bits. DOH! Amazon should be delivering today, and I'm going for the add a strip of metal option...
Brilliant video thanks ,doing this little job tomorrow ,weather permitting.
Looks like an easy fix, I'm always glad I kept my soldering iron after giving up drone building as it's very handy having it in the tool box.
Great video and very well demonstrated. My TT needs one of these but I just know I'd make a hash of it.
New to tt ownership and got this to do to both doors,videos like his are invaluable good work mate and keep up the great channel 👍🏻
Thanks, glad to be of assistance
What’s your email mate planning a fair bit of work and would like ur opinions and also for you to do the work
Great video, thanks.
Great work! Would’ve made my life a little easier a week ago. Ended up buying a decent used latch assembly after I messed up soldering at the board.
I have seen/heard of people placing a strip of metal over the switch to make up for the space lost from the switch button covering and the plastic coming off the latch.
Thanks! Helped me alot!
Your videos are great mate! Picking up a TT this weekend and this seems to be the only issue it has. (fingers crossed)
How was the car then? Was the microswitch the only thing that needed repair?
Hi mate, all your videos are great , made me buy a TT , and now I have my first problem, my driver's side window as just dropped the amount it does when you open the door ,then I noticed when I shut the door, it didn't go back up, I tried to close it on the switch but nothing, but would go down on the switch but still wouldn't go up,now it's all the way down, took the door card off and I can hear something near the motor when I use the switch down and a faint click when trying up any ideas cheers Trev
hey thanks for the videos, hey you know I have a problem with my audi tt 01 I did a scan and generated 3 codes P1469 says it is valve 2 for activ open circuit. P1103 sensor1 heater performance too low, and P1297 charger throttle pressure drop. Do you have any videos where I can see how to solve any of these problems?
I love how you can just beat on the plastic on the top of the door panel and stays intact mine would just fall apart 😂😂
As an observer, I’d say it would be advantageous if you left the original wires as long as possible. That way the good old TT can take a good six more micro switch changes.
On the plastic wearing out, we could potentially 3d print something that can be glued on, and changed when need be.
Please keep adding content as you’ve been my go to from day one of owning my Mk1 TT.
🇦🇺🤜🏼🤛🏼😎🍀🍀🍀
Why there is no need to keep cutting them. It’s soldered in so you can just redo the connect for the next switch.
Hi, thanks for the video. do you have a video on how to remove the outer door handle.. Best, Robert
Hi Bryn, did you find a replacement microswitch, I'm having this problem too. Thanks.
Hi my drivers side window drops but passenger side doesant . Can this stop interior light coming on when door is opened . When i open either doors interior light doesat come come it show door is open on display
Video should include a quick preliminary diagnostic that tests whether window “convenience” feature is fully enabled or not, which can also cause just one window not to drop. Went ahead with a switch replacement only to discover it wasn’t the problem… Commonly happens after a battery disconnect; the reset procedure takes 15 seconds and is in the owners manual.
Changedy micro switch on my roadster drivers door as it was not dropping. Hasn't worked,made.o difference. Tried a reset on the window operation and still the same. Just about to give up on it.
Great video and has gone ok. Only problem is I can’t get the locking mechanism to engage. When I close the door it just springs open. Any advice?
Do you by chance have a part # or who you purchased the Micr switch from, and do you know if there’s one on the passenger side?
is this process the same for the mk 2 tt
Hey, great video and another thing on the to do list so thanks for showing how it is done. Have you had any luck in finding another micro switch that would work?
It's on the list of things to do
Could you please film a turbo replacement video on your 225 bc I’m stuck trying to swap mine but I have these weird bolts holding the turbo to the manifold
Changing one today, I'll see what I can do
Think I'll be doing this on mine soon, so thanks for the guide! Random one, but why don't TT's have door bins, and just nets?
I couldn’t tell you the reasoning, but I think it’s pretty cool just having nets
Hi there buddy as I live in Australia the link in the video doesn't send here do you know the part number so I can try on ebay
What key do I have to use on the side? Can't find it.
at .37 black plastic piece is attached at the top [unless broken?]
Hiya, job was a good one but snapped the flat blade connection to cylinder on replacement, do you know code for part or name of it. Anyone else had same problem. Also does anyone put the anti theft panel back in? Thanks for all you videos
Please help 🙏 I'm having issues with the plug to the door lock when I twist on the connection to it the micro switch works what can I do I'm trying to figure out a parasitic draw and I'm hoping you can help !! Thanks
Hello pal, I'm having issues with my driver's side window always dropping whilst driving (like when you open the door) I have replaced the microswitch didn't work then replaced the whole unit and it is still doing it. Any suggestions? (I've also dropped you a message on FB if it's easier to respond there. Cheers
Where can I get the part?
My window dont work just clicks when pressing the button would this be the micro switch
I decided to just get a new door actuator as i was struggling to get a micro switch but my window still does not drop and the car locks itself after 45 secs even when the door is open.
Do you have the code or serial number of Switch? I want buy first the switch.
I know a lot of people have asked but I can’t see a response. Where can we buy the switches?
dove si trovano li compri i microinterrutori?
Hi, I need to do this for my drivers door. If I replace the whole mechanism, does it have to be coded to the car ? Or do I just plug it in, and it's ready to go ?
Its plug and play
I was on the Audi TT Europe website and they say these switches will fit. Left right door lock micro switch set for Audi A6 VW Passat B5 Bora Polo Golf Mk4 found on eBay. I will update with the results of my trial when they get here.
It'll be interesting to see if they do. If they do we can add that link to the description to help everyone find them easily
Any luck?
Mark Miller- any news if they fit? Thanks in advance
Hello great video. I just replaced the switch but wen I plug it in left side it doesnt lower the window. But when I plug the module into the right hand door it does work. I also tried to reset the windows but no succes. Got any ideas?
You could have an issue with the wiring loom, you can do a pin out check from the connector just inside the car as the loom comes out of the door
@@BWSTT oké I am going to check it.
At the 6:30 mark you say ".... got this bit back on" but I have been unable to force that pin back through even when I position it and use a hammer. How do you get it back on?
They just push in 🤷🏻♂️
I replaced the battery and afterwards the windows, trunk release, power top, and fuel door release stopped working. Is there an easy cure or is that a big problem? Just bought the TT and love the car. Your videos are awesome!!!
Lock it then unlock it, then key in ignition
Can it be done without soldering? Don't currently have one.
Yeah, crimp connectors work fine
Ciao ma dove posso comprare quel sensore che hai cambiato?
Hello there..
On my roadster on the passenger side is not working at all. Already took apart but did not replace that switch cause I thought is the motor . But my knowledge on that department is vague. Is the problem the micro switch?
Thanks and stay healthy!!
If the window doesn't move at all under normal operation then it's not going to be the microswitch at fault
@@BWSTT Thanks. My guess is probably the motor, cause when I press the window switch down it makes a 'click' noise like signal is going but not working at all.
Thanks again.
@@ajrome8103 mine is doing the same as yours did.
Did replacing the motor fix the problem?
@1RUFC I took apart and gave to a friend of mine to fix it, he cleaned all and put it back together and it worked.
My window is in the dropped position, would this repair fix ?
You probably just need to do a window reset prosedure. You can find the details on the tt forum. It basically opening the door and keeping the window down pressed for a few seconds at the lowest it can go, then keep pressing up on the highest it can go for a further 10 seconds. The window should reset.
The bit at the end you said is a pain in the arse. Put that back in on the door card then put the other bits into the door steel work after installation it's much easier that way.
That way the one half way up door side is tricky to locate, whichever way you go though, lube is the key
@@BWSTT😂
Where to buy the switch from and what part number please mate
Left+Right Door Lock Micro Switch Set For Audi A6 VW Passat B5 Bora Polo GolfMK4 from eBay. According to the Europe Audi TT website. Just ordered them and will see in a bit.
Should the window drop when the switch is being pushed?
Correct, pushing it breaks the circuit, which drops the window
Could it be that my microswitch is the culprit of various different problems with my TT? It's started with the windows not dropping properly (both sides, working on and off), then the fuse that controls central locking and windows started blowing every other time I locked the car. Then yesterday, all of a sudden I couldn't unlock the car with neither key directly in the car nor central unlocking. I have been looking at a used door to just run place the whole thingbecsuse my door does have a bit of rust, but it's very expensive. I'm starting a new job next week that I have to drive to, so stressing a bit about it. Anyone got any thoughts?
Without knowing if its a coupe or a roadster, the symptoms you describe point towards a bad CCM- which is a common fault on roadsters, less so on coupes. Of course there is also the possibility that the wiring has deteriorated between the door and the body.
@@BWSTT 😱 I didn't expect a reply 🤩 Thank you so much for taking the time to write!! I sent an email to your work (if I found the correct email address), regarding your rates etc :) Must Google ccm, don't know what that is. I have a 225 quattro coupe (sorry to have forgotten that!) and have suspected something with the wiring - as a follow up problem to the windows not going all the way up. I haven't gotten around to fixing them yet, and she worked fine when I got her in December, but these problems started showeing up after washing her a few times (and water getting in via the windows, right above the door handles). I've ordered the microswitches you linked to, and will be fixing the windows (also with the help of your videos 🙏). And will be getting you loooots of lattes! 🤗
I have issue with transition mount. Can not find one, Audi said it is obsolete, what is the best place online, Audi tt 2000, 225 he Quatro, 6 speed manual.
Which part of it, i have some on the shelf
@@BWSTT thanks for the response, I will know more on Monday.
@@BWSTT just got the part number.
8N019555C
@@BWSTT it is the uper part, not the dog bone.
Hi, I messed this up and shut my door and now I can’t open it from the inside or out any tips?
If you’ve not connected the cables then you’re gonna have to destroy the door card to get access
@@BWSTT I have partially destroyed the door card but everything seems like it’s all connected and when the exterior handle is pulled I can feel it and see it working correctly it just doesn’t open
When i open my left door the window is not dropping, not showing at my dashboard that i have open door and also light doesn't turn on inside... You think this is the switch i have to fix?
Yep its the switch
@@BWSTT thanks :)
my window does automatically drop when the door opens and it doesn't automatically close when the door is closed. my windows switch on the door stopped working. Even my mirror switch doesn't work. is it this micro switch or module in the door? thanks
Just cut the red wire, fixed.
Nope, far from it
I love my TT but this is crappy engineering. The plastic coating wears away and the door doesn't drop. Really? A plastic coating Audi?
