Volkswagen Passat - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Passat B6, 3C - Years 2005-2010
Part: Key
Operation: How to replace the ignition key cylinder of a Volkswagen Passat B6.

In this video, we see how to replace the ignition switch of a Volkswagen Passat B6. We do not provide a purchase code because there are many ignition switches available online, both with physical keys and electronic keys, used, at affordable prices. Certainly, for a used part, we cannot give a specific indication, but know that you can find many of them. Before performing this operation, disconnect the battery! The video refers to the electronic key, and to remove the ignition switch, it is sufficient to push the clips inward and remove it. Then, we need to remove the chrome trim of the radio and then the trim of the dashboard - they are only held by pressure, so we just need to pry them off - then there are a series of screws indicated by our YouTuber that need to be removed, starting from the glove compartment, which will allow us to remove the plastic part of the dashboard around the steering wheel. First, we will also need to remove the turn signal lever, the various buttons on the right side, and then the cover on the thickness of the dashboard. Only at this point does the ignition switch come out of its housing. There is an electrical connector that we will need to remove, and then we can connect the new functional piece. Now, we will need to carefully put everything back in its place.
