How to deactivate the internal alarm on a Volkswagen Golf

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VII, MK 7, Golf 7 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video we will see how to deactivate the internal alarm of a Volkswagen Golf. This is designed to detect intrusions inside the cabin and activate a sound and visual alarm. Its operation may vary slightly depending on the year of production, but it is based on volumetric sensors that continuously monitor movements inside the cabin, tilt sensors that detect if the car is tilted or lifted, the electronic control unit that processes the signals and activates a loud and prolonged alarm in case of intrusion, and emergency lights. The backup battery ensures the operation of the alarm even in case of deactivation of the main battery. However, if we want to leave people in the car, it is easy to deactivate the alarm. Just press the button located on the passenger door pillar.
