Why does the Volkswagen Passat remote control not work?
Years 2005-2010

Answer

If the Volkswagen Passat remote control stops working, there could be multiple causes of the malfunction. The battery may have run out, so you can replace it before going to the mechanic. Another possible reason is linked to the deprogramming of the remote control; there are do-it-yourself procedures or, to avoid damage, it is recommended to go to an authorized technician. Other causes are due to the breakage of the internal circuitry of the piece.
