Next, let’s go through the steps to dismantle and replace the window switches or buttons on a Volkswagen Passat. First, open the front door and start detaching the window switch panel from the door panel; to do this, use a very thin lever, as shown in the video.

At this point, disconnect the electric connector of the window switches to remove and replace them with new ones (or even a single switch); then reassemble the new switch panel, ensuring the correct operation of all switches first!
