Title: Central Locking on 5 Door Mk4 GTi
Post by: douglas on 29 July 2016, 11:12
Hi all,

does anyone have any advice on what to look for when your central locking doesn't work?  I suspect there is a unit (within four out of the five doors including the boot) that need replaced.  Also, one of the doors wont open from the inside or the out and I can't get the door card off to get into the lock.  The cable attached to the door handle isn't there, so has either snapped or dropped off through wear?  Ive had a go at fishing for the mechanism to open the door, with a piece of wire coat hanger!  Can anyone suggest a more appropriate tool for the job?

Thanks!
