Vw passat door lock actuator removal.
Locks work from the switch but not the remote.
All the instruction indicate i m to loosen two nuts to release the window but i don t see any nuts.
The door lock works in only one direction.
I have a picture.
Loosen this off and it should allow you to remove part of the door handle.
The actuator can now be removed.
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.
Once removed this gives you access to remove the cable from the door handle.
Raise support the vehicle safely according to manufacturer jacking supporting positions.
When where needed.
The battery is likely dead and needs to be replaced but the remote s may also need to be reprogrammed to work.
If this happens the problem is with the remote.
I see a threaded bolt but no nuts.
The bit that looks like a lock should be in there.
