power-closing

Yesterday my electric slider (ie it has both slider motor and soft close) refused to work with button blinking. I had OBDeleven with me and got the following code: I was able to operate the door manually though so not a real issue although the door is pretty heavy to use with motors...

This has been a concern of mine for some time and rather than continue to accidentally hijack this thread I thought I'd start a new one. The problem The short summary is that I have an electric powered tailgate on my T6.1 and, as can be seen in my avatar, I also have a rear kitchen and rig...

Hello all I possibly, maybe, could be having a T6.1 built for me around week 40 2023 (ish) that I ordered in Sep 2021 Due to wanting to add a couple of bits to it post-order (things I couldn't retrofit), I've 'lost' some other bits I originally ordered on it:- electric tailgate rear parking...

So that members searching “electric tailgate” electric tailgate soft close” or alternatively “electric sliding doors” problems can easily find this I’ve started a new post. I have had the soft close fail on my electric tailgate many times. One time the mechanism had loads of rubble grit in it...

I tow a caravan with my T6, Kombi 2018, after opening the tailgate whilst still plugged in (which stops electric opening), the door now only rises to half height on opening with the door handle, I never use the key fob (never really needed to) as I just walk to the door and pull handle. reading...

Good Morning All, Long time lurker and new 17’ T6 owner. I’ve jumped in the back this morning to start investigating what’s what as I plan to start building a camper and I’ve run into my first head scratching moment! When I was viewing the van, I seen it had power sliding & latching doors...

Hi, I’ve searched and cant find any thread with same issue. Apologies if I’ve missed one. i have T6 kombi with electric sliding doors. The drivers side one makes awful ’grinding’ noise mainly at point of opening when door starts to come out and round. To a lesser extent when closing. it...

Hi All, having a bit of a weird intermittent issue with my kombi and hoping someone can advise. I've done a trawl through the forum and whilst I can find lots of power sliding door issues, none appear to be the same as the issue I am experiencing. My Kombi has twin power sliding doors and...

Hi there, I recently joined the forum in the hope I'd be able for solve a bit of a head scratcher that I’m having trouble figuring out. It may be something simple I’m missing but I’m struggling at the moment and I've yet to find a post with a similar fault. Hoping that there's an electrical...

Evening all. Not sure where to post this. My new/old Caravelle’s automatic door all work… mostly.. The drivers side sometimes tries to close and the opens again. If you gently help it, it normally closes second time. Does anyone know how to service and and what grease/lube to use? Mark

Hi Guys, Just wanted to say a quick hi. Just bought a ‘16 T6 from Broadway Van Centre in Pontypridd. No conversion on it, but it’s carpeted out. Planning on using it as a vehicle for the business (photography and a bit of engineering), and then sleeping in it on the odd photography weekend...

Help needed please, last night my n/s sliding door was working fine one minute then later when I came to open it it wouldn’t open electrically, or close. Also when I come to close it it won’t close properly at the back of the door. The button on the dash was flashing this morning when I started...

Having issues with the electric tailgate on my 2022 LWB kombi, read other threads but they all seem to be the power latching not working. My tail gate opens every time on the button but 95% of the time the electric close won’t work but if you pull it down manually which is a pain to try and do...

Does anyone know if the electric tailgate rams are serviceable? One of mine has started making a clicking type noise , there's no issue with it going up or down however. My van is still under warranty but any time I've dealt with the dealers around here it's a drawn out , costly (travel to and...

Hi I picked up my 17 reg' T6 California Camper from the VW workshop today having asked them to look at several issues including the soft close sliding door. The door has been developing an intermittent rasping/creaking noise when I initially open it (i.e. as it de-latches) which has now become...

Hi Me again sorry !! Recently bought a t6 caravelle but noticed the tailgate not closing properly, still moves a good few mm when shut, at first I thought it was just a worn catch but then I looked on the forum and seen some have power latch soft close, is there any way I can tell if it’s got it...

Hi all, not long after I insulated my van last year, I had an issue with the internal door handle not operating the door yet the key and outside handle were fine. It turned out that I may have dislodged the connector onto the switch that the handle operates. Well its happenned again, so me...

Thanks for giving me a membership. I have an automatic sliding door problem on my 2017 Multivan. From the fob and center console only the soft close motor activated, but not the sliding action. No sound coming from the motor either. Checked fuses under bonnet, under seats, in the center column...

Cancelled my Kombi order due to no build progress after 9 months and ordered a van from Van Haven who had one in stock. It's currently being converted from a PV into a very special Kombi. The only option I had on the original Kombi order that the PV hasn't got it electric sliding doors, has...
