All of a sudden the warning chime that rings when you've left your lights on and open your door has packed up.
Anyone had this? Is it just a fuse or something?
thought it was part of the instrument cluster tbh as you test this on VCDS in the instruments control unit, same as Mk4/Bora, Passat B5 (not the same clusters but same principal)
Happened to me a few weeks ago, I squirted some WD40 into the locking mechanism, and locked/unlocked the door a couple of times, it came back to life. Worst case scenario, it is the microswitch. Unfortunately, VW dont sell the microswitch on its own, instead they try to sell you the entire door locking mechanism. Cant remember how much the stealers charge but its alot of money. If the WD40 trick doesnt work, buy a lock off ebay and either fix it yourself or tell a garage?
Good luck buddy
