my drivers side door lock microswitch has chewed up the rubber on the cam (yes, opposite to the usual failure) and all affected functions now failing more often. i bought one off ebay as times are hard but its the one for remote locking models (mine is pov-spec regular central locking). looks similar and given the doors (i really hope) weren't different i can't see a problem? unless its got more or fewer pins...

do you think this is a problem??

part number for remote one is 3B2 837 016 H

part number i think i need is 6X2 837 014 H

cheers

yes they are interchangeable in case this crops up.

the 3B2 837 016 A

can be swapped for 3B2 837 016 H

and all the cables and things swap over too.

thanks,

sorry to hijack thread but could someone tell me the part number for the drivers door lock mechanism in a 2005 octavia mk1 VRS

anyone? really need to confirm this today as going to pick up a part

I changed my drivers door lock and rear door lock in November part number for the drivers one is 3B2 837 016T and it was £99.68 + VAT from Skoda.
