Regrettably, my home computer just about died on me last week. I'm bringing it back to life, but have only got as far as reinstaling windows - so I've not got access to Ecta at the moment.

Also regrettably, but not entirely without warning, my N/S/F door lock has packed in. (I've already had the rear one replaced). Luckily, after over a day of refusing to unlock it did actually unlock so I've taken off the door card and unplugged the multiplug to stop it locking again.

The rear door uses the same lock as the Passat, but has a different carrier attached to it due to the door being longer. But I presume the front door uses exactly the same parts as the Passat.

Could someone with access to Ecta check for me?

Many thanks

Free of charge, but I don't have time to check it out for you myself. Sorry.

Likely to be the pcb in the door lock control module. If you're handy with a soldering iron:

Just a thought.
