In this guide, we will see the main instructions useful for disassembling the window switch panel and replacing one or more switches on the Volkswagen Tiguan. First of all, we open the front door of the car and start disassembling and removing the door panel, unscrewing all the fixing screws; then we disconnect the electrical connector of the window switch panel, unhooking and removing the entire panel from the door, as shown in the video.

At this point, if necessary, we replace the single window switch with the new one, finally reassembling the door panel!
