Today we will discover the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the air conditioning pressure sensor of the Volkswagen Golf. First of all, we open the hood of the car and begin to locate the sensor in question, which we find on the upper left side of the engine compartment; then we disconnect the electrical connector of the sensor and use a socket wrench to remove it, as shown in the video.

At this point, we properly attach the new air conditioning pressure sensor, finally making the electrical connection; we verify the correct operation of the air conditioner.

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.
