Video tutorial

In this video, you can see how to replace the electric window switch of the Volkswagen Golf VI: one of the buttons on the driver's control panel is loose and therefore cannot operate the window. First, remove the entire unit from its housing.

Protect the plastics with insulating tape, then use plastic spatulas to pry off the control panel cover. Disconnect the two electrical connectors and replace the switch, which can be easily found on e-commerce sites.

The code B087ZHHVGK is available on Amazon for £15.99, with free delivery for Prime customers. Remove the switch from its frame and insert the new one into its housing after reconnecting the electrical plugs.

Operation completed.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
