How to disassemble the UCH/BCM of a Renault Clio

Model: Renault Clio Clio V, Clio 5 - Years 2019-2026
Part: Control unit

In this video we can see how to disassemble the UCH/BCM of a Renault Clio. The UCH is the Hydraulic Control Unit and the BCM is the Body Control Module, so these two systems are the brain that manages the electronic functions of the car, such as central locking, electric windows, automatic activations in general, steering wheel controls, etc. This module is located under the glove compartment, and as always when dealing with something electrical, it is always better to first deactivate the battery. We need to remove the door sill, and also the cover of the dashboard thickness, where the fuses are, and in the space we have created we find the module, supported by a bracket. It is not easy to remove it from its housing, and to extract it we also need a bit of force, but the video at least shows us how it is made, so we can recognize it.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
