How to disassemble the side door lock of the Volkswagen Caddy?

Model: Volkswagen Caddy MK 3, 2K - Years 2003-2020
Part: Door lock

The Volkswagen Caddy is a vehicle also intended for work use, loading, and transporting goods, etc., which is why it is equipped with a sliding side door to facilitate such operations. This door has its own handle and lock, and if either one, in this case, the lock, malfunctions, it can be disassembled DIY, thanks to the provided video support, without needing to go to a workshop. Here’s how to do it: remove the inner door trim panel by unscrewing the screws that hold it in place, unscrew the locking torx pins, both lateral and on the pillar, of the lock itself, allowing it to be extracted from its housing, and finally disconnect the electrical connector.
