Einleitung

This guide will show you how to replace a door lock switch in a T3 (2010-2018) Volkswagen Touareg. An extra set of hands will make this repair much easier when removing the wiring from the back of the door panel. A lot of the panels that are to be removed contain brittle plastic clips, so proceed with caution.

    • This plug will be wrapped in a grey styrofoam-like material.

    • This will be a light blue plug with a pink lock.

  13. G5xJWU6KbCKShAMR

    • Now that the wiring is removed from the door panel, distinguish which plug is the door lock switch.

    • It will be located in the top of the door panel. The back of the switch will be blue.

  14. SHSBIxRH5XTXMGb4

    • Remove the wiring and use a pick to free the switch of the mounting tabs.

  15. MOAGjqTqMIvZWRZJ

  16. dMoXrPkpTPm2glqG
