Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 4, Golf IV, Golf 4 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Lock
Operation: How to repair the door latch of a VW Golf 4.

The central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 can malfunction due to its corresponding fuse, which may have burned out over time. To solve the problem, we will need to turn off the car's instrument panel and open the driver's door, as the fuse box containing the fuse for the central locking system is located on the left side of the dashboard. Once the cover is removed, you can remove the 10 amp fuse number 6 using the appropriate pliers and insert the new fuse. Once the box is closed, you can turn on the panel and try to lock the car. We recommend performing this operation by disconnecting the car battery first.
