door lock microswitch

Hello everybody, Not so long ago ( transporter t6 2019 barn door ) the little van on my dash kept telling me the back door was open ( it wasn't ) sent to vw, they said cable from front to back has got damaged, installed the new one at the front, and told me where to connect at the rear ( yet to...

Hi all So I've just taken my drivers door lock cylinder out with undoingthe grub screw,,however when i put it back in now the little grub screw wont tighten it back up,,any help???

I'm sorry if this is here already, I keep finding threads for locks not unlocking, but none where they won't lock. I've got a T6 with barn doors. The last few days the door has stopped locking. Handles are all fine, but it doesn't lock with the key, on the fob or with the internal locking...

It sits around the locking mechanism on both driver and passenger doors. Doesn’t seem to affect anything.

Hi to all Transporter fans , I just had my van last week and try'ing some stuff and things out an bumped into a problem. When i go in to the cargo back of my van and lock the car, there is no way to open the door unless i unlock the lock mechanicly. I want to go camping and lock the van with...

Hello fellow T6 owners. Since March, a warning light has appeared on the display with the text "Error: Driver Door Contact Switch" See the picture, although it is in Swedish. have taken the car to the Volkswagen workshop but they have never heard of the fault and have not been able to solve...

Just been to my local VW 'specialist' and described to them the problem I have with my barn doors (essentially the same as in this thread). Chap told me to get a replacement mechanism (see pic) off ebay, but I've checked and there are none listed as far as I can tell. Is there a recommended...

Hi - I've searched through the threads and can't find the answer to this specific question - all help appreciated! Our T6 has got a deadlock on the barn door which we want to remove and rewire it back to the original lock / central locking. Investigating the problem, we can see that the rod that...

Good Morning I have read all the threads re the T6 side and tailgate locking problem I think but have failed to sort my problems so looking for advice please. I have for some time had to unlock my side door from inside as it failed to unlock on the fob. I have to pull the internal handle three...

The central locking on my passenger front door has packed up today. I can still manually lock/unlock the door but the motor makes a fairly loud whirring sound when locking or unlocking on the fob or by the switch on the drivers side control. I haven’t taken the door card off yet, I’m minded to...

After 3 months of ownership, I've only just noticed that my T6.1 van has odd locks. There is a key hole on the passenger side and not the drivers side. Is this normal? I had a car broken into many years ago where the lock was essentially forced with a screwdriver. I'm guessing that modern...

I can lock my van using the fob and all the door lock as normal except the sliding door which remains open. I don't have any errors on VCDS, and on the screen it shows the door closed. The lock buttons by the mirror switch also doesn't work. When I press the lock switch, it tries to lock but...

Hi all after some help with my passenger door issue. I recently changed the crossover in the door and broke the plastic clip holding the door cable. I thought I'd repaired it and put everything back together, initially the door wouldn't close and it felt like the locking mechanism had closed...

Hi all, Need a bit of advice regarding the central locking and alarm on my 2015 T6 Highline panel van (140 6 speed). Yesterday I went to lock my van and noticed it wasn't locking from the fob. I thought it was the battery in the fob first of all, but when i went to locked via the key the...

Today the van was locked up on my drive and then suddenly the alarm went off. I looked out of the window and the courtesy lights were on. Turned the alarm off, but it wouldnt reset. Went into the van and the icon in the display was showing the van with the drivers door open and wont go out...

With some help from Willoughby (thanks, Kevin!), I've installed a door lock/unlock switch near my 2017 T6's sliding door. This lets me more easily lock the van when I'm sleeping in it, without arming the alarm system. It makes it much easier for my kids sleeping on the roof bunk to reach down...

Hi, just wondering if anyone can shed some light on a little problem I have with my drivers door. When I unlock the van with the central locking button (from the outside) when I pull the handle to open the door it never works first time, always have to operate it again to open it. Anyone know...

I know this has been covered before,( I think I have even posted about my problems before), but I have yet again had problems with the locks on the rear barn doors of my van not opening. Does anyone have a long term solution? I have had the van in 3 times to the dealer, the last time they...

Hello everyone, I'm brand new here having received my T6.1 yesterday. During the walk-around everything worked but this morning I tried to open the rear Barn Doors and I heard the mechanism go but nothing happened. Being an engineering sort, I took the ply lining covering the mechanism off and...

I have had a intermittent problem with the rear,( barn style), door not unlatching. The van is an 18 plate which I bought last February from a main dealer. I had it in a week ago to the same dealer that said it just needed adjustment. This worked up until yesterday but now the problem has come...
