How to proceed if you need to remove the faulty start button from the console of a Volkswagen Tiguan MK2? No one thinks that the start button can fail, but it is a normal component that can break like anything else on your car. If you do not purchase an original part, be very careful about how the top of the button is oriented; not all are correctly oriented.

First, remove the gear knob cover, then take out the screws that secure the frame around the cover and remove that as well.

The button is inserted in it: disconnect the plug by pressing the tab at the bottom of the connector, pull out the damaged button and replace it with the new one. Reconnect the electrical plug and replace the frame with its screws. Refit the gear knob cover and the job is done.
