Hi guys been spending my day fixing my electrical issues with a mate and sorted all but two. My central locking still only works three doors (passenger won't work) checked all wires and all is good, had a code reader on it (bosh kts 340 code reader and error code comes up as 0534 door control unit, passenger side blocks/power failure) and the door is getting power but thinks it's locked all the time, could this be the issue stopping it from working? (also checked drivers door and no water ingress also fitted a new lock motor to the passenger door as had to smash the old one to get the door open)

If this is the issue can something be re-set using vag com and does anyone have the facility and some spare time in north east (County Durham/Teeside area)

Thanks

Sid.

Forgot to add thanks to all those who replied to my earlier plea for help

Still needing a hand on this one

VCDS will not really fix a problem with a fault door lock. If its in wrong state or thinks its in the wrong state then just by pressing unlock/lock a couple of times will reset it.

If you have fitted a replacement lock you may have fitted another duff one. You can get brand new ones from poland via ebay for £45. Ive fitted a couple on my car and its been fine since.

I have VCDS and i'm very comfortable using it but in this case the only thing it will say is implausable signal or no communication. You can enable the alarm beep which will tell you that the car is safely locked. You can also recode the CCM with the wrong code then back with the correct code in an effort to reset your CCM.

Hi Aham,

I have tried locking and unlocking to no avail, on the reader it just stays as locked. do you have a link to the locks from ebay. I have a spare CCM (I am unsure of the code on it or whether it will work with my car but hopefully use that if my CCM is fubar'd)

Thanks for the help so far Aham_uk

Here is the lock i bought and its the same for the Octavia http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-GOLF-IV-4-MK4-BORA-DOOR-LOCK-MECHANISM-LEFT-/180404311780?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2a00ef56e4

CCM don't normally cause a single door lock to fail, normally the lighting is the first thing to die or battery draining.

I can code CCM's to your remotes etc.

No problem, I normally have around 1-2people per week using my vcds diags from eBay so an extra one won't make any difference.

Not even looking at it I would put money on the lock working.
