Central locking, windows not working
« on: 31 July 2011, 19:55 »
Hi there, Searched everywhare and I can't seem to find a solution. Please help.

I have a 99 plate golf estate 1.9 tdi. Lady friend got it for cheap at an auction when I was out in afghan an it has a few problems. r/c central locking, boot button, windows, interior lights, boot, fuel cap not working. Checked the fuses in driver door panel and there all good. Driver door also can't be opned from the outside, needs to be opned from the inside and need to use the key to get into the boot.

Can anyone shed some light on the problem. ot a feeling it is all linked to the central locking but I don't know golf's. Pug's am a wizard but no german.

Cheers
