Just used your video to replace mine as the garage wanted £225 - so thanks for a good video that I followed step by step. Nice one, cheers
That’s awesome! I’m so happy to hear that you did it yourself 🙌🏼 thank you for the compliment I really appreciate it ❤️
great video, about to tackle my broken window switch this evening. Quick tip for anyone who's windows are stuck open as the button is broken (or stuck closed and its really hot and you need to drive home before fixing) if you press and hold the key fob locking button any open windows on the car will close. Conversely if you press and hold the unlock button, all the windows on your car will open.
Hopefully that will let you keep your car safe or cool if your windows are either up, or down, when your window switch breaks. 👍🏼👍🏼
Hey, YOU made my day .. new switch in Vw Golf Sportsvan, all okay. Best tutorial in UA-cam for this problem. Big Thanxs.
Thanks for this video. My main window switch completely disintegrated after a few years of use. The plastic just broke. All that was left was sharp metal. In any case, this video made me feel better about doing it myself. Bought a genuine VW switch module and swapped myself. Easy peasy. Gratsi!
Just want to let you know I have the same problem on my VW Touran . The VW Service center would fix it for $2,000 HK dollars. So I did it myself, I Ordered on Amazon for the the part. Took me 1 hour to replace part and fixed. Very happy. Thank you for your help and video. All the best.😊
Just fixed this same issue on my wife’s sportwagen with some help from this video, though I did have one clip on the door card that isn’t fully engaged, no matter how much I push on it. Thank you for the run through, saved a lot of money doing this!
Just fixed my 2016 e-golf problem. Thanks! I saved $651.43!
Very useful, thank u from France
I will try and help anyway I can!
This is awesome, from France no way! Thank you so much for commenting I really appreciate it🙌🏼❤️
Thank you for this! It took one hour or so and cost 30$ im super happy!!!
That’s awesome! I’m happy to hear that everything worked out for you❤️
Thanks Luke, awesome video. I changed my switch today, the "long" way so definitely worth taking a little extra time to do the job properly. I did manage to do it without disconnecting the other wires by having someone hold the door card upside down while I removed the switch casing which is fiddly. Thanks again
Of course anytime! I hope to make your life easier with my videos. Thank you for commenting and sharing your experience I really appreciate it! ❤️🤙🏼
Awesome video - thank you! I just ordered mine from Amazon and will follow your guide closely this weekend. Cheers!
Of course thank you for commenting! Please consider subscribing I would really appreciate it!
Thanks mate, got my car fixed up
Thanks for making this video - this just helped me through my own repair!
That’s awesome, I’m happy to hear that I could help! Have a good day ❤️🙌🏼
I googled the average cost of replacing your car door window switch, and it can range anywhere between $200-$300, depending on your car make and model.
The fact that you can purchase a new switch for ONLY $30, and do it yourself and SAVE hundreds of dollars is AMAZING! And it’s CLEARLY so easy (THANKS TO THIS TUTORIAL 😉)
IF YOU’RE NOT USING THIS TUTORIAL AND GOING TO A MECHANIC INSTEAD, YOU’RE SLEEPING 😴😴😴
🤷🏻♀️
Thank you for watching ❤️
Lots of sleepers ❤️
i take 65 euro with switch and labor on my shop
This is a great video, and I managed to save myself some cash thanks to you. I am very glad the part from China worked after all that 🤣🤣
Great video and easy enough to do.
thank you so much for the kind words, I really appreciate it!
Thanks - Appreciate this big time! Sportwagen had exact same issue - Saved me time and $$$
of course! thank you for the comment I really appreciate it! ❤
Thanks man.
Thanks for this! All fixed 🥳
that's awesome, im happy i was able to help! take care!
Wow, amazing! This was so helpful :)
You’re welcome ❤️
Thanks Luke, for basically the only MK7 switch replacement on YT (in English). Watched 3 times and still not looking forward to this, like you, very much dislike plastic clamps and the fear going too far. Same as you, I like to roll my window down when driving, and other 3 are in perfect condition from little use. Appreciate the close-up of broken switch. This would be 200-250 at a Shop, but the BS, make appointment, drop-off, get a ride, get a ride to pick-up, pay the man.
Thank you for watching my video I really appreciate it! I tried to make the video as thorough as I could while capturing the right angles to make it easy to follow along! Thanks again for the comment and sharing your experience! 🤙🏼🙌🏼❤️
thank you my man!
Of course brother! Anytime. Please consider subscribing it would really help me out ❤️🙌🏼
thank you so much! the same EXACT thing happened to my drivers side
Your welcome! I’ve noticed this is happening to a lot of people, thank you for watching and commenting. If you are looking to order the new switch make sure you look at the link in the description, It will be for a 2016 vw golf if that’s what you are looking for! ❤️🙌🏼🤙🏼
Thanks for uploading this! Was a huge help and managed to save a bunch of money replacing the switch as a result 😁
Awesome, im so happy to hear that! That’s ultimately why I made this video. Thank you for letting me know that ❤️
Godsend! My window was stuck down and same story as everyone, dealership quoted $230 diagnosis and $300-500 repair. I follow this video and I didn’t see a crack like the uploaded so open the part that was cracked and see the actual plastic switches that touch the circuit board are broken!! Replaced for $5 and completely working🎉
Thanks man!!!
This is awesome! I’m so happy to hear that this worked out well for you. It really does make me happy. 😊 I appreciate the kind words and the comment. All I really want is to be able to help people so seeing this brings my dreams into fruition! Thank you again 🙏🏼❤️
I'm wondering why you didn't just remove the switch and bezel from the top of the door card instead of removing the entire door card and risk breaking stuff that has nothing to do with removing and replacing the window switch. Just use a flat bladed screwdriver under the forward part of the bezel and pop it out from the top instead of underneath. It looks like you went the long way around of doing it the simple way.
😂 just replaced mine and just did it the like this
thinking the samething
Is the cable that is attached to the whole switch block long enough to pop it out from the top?
?!
I was thinking the same thing. But on my mk7 gti I couldn’t just remove the switch and housing without breaking the tabs or the door card. So you have to take it off. Wasn’t so bad. Only took about 30-45 mins
Massive thank you, you’ve saved me bomb from it been £10 for part as the garage wanted uk £275 or USA $351 to fix it so decided to do it my self absolutely sh*t my self not going to lie but all is good
Merci bien pour cette vidéo bien utile :)
Thank you, I appreciate it! Hopefully this helps you❤️👍🏼
@@LukesVlogs97 Yes it helped me. I replaced my box with no problem. Thanks again.
I reckon the same has happened to the drivers switch on my 16 MK7 Golf. It's not doing the full auto down, but will still go down, but after watching your video, I noticed the switch was very loose
im happy that this video helped you out a bit! did you end up getting it fixed?
@LukesVlogs97 yes I did! The part was like $30 AUD and the install process was very easy, thanks to your video
Hi. I have a tiguan 2017 new model that looks like that. Also the same issue 2 of the 4 buttons not working but with the key it works. Can i remove the switch only without the entire panel door? And why did you disconnect all wires when you just wanted to replace the window one? Thanks
Thank you for commenting I really appreciate it! It might be possible that you can remove the switch only but it’s more likely that you can break the clips that holds the casing for the switches. for me personally, I was more comfortable taking off the whole door because it was easier to access. I didn’t want to cut any corners just to get the job done faster. I wanted to remove the door so I can replace everything and put it back to normal. Please consider subscribing it would mean a lot! 👍🏼❤️
Bro bro I’m having the same issue. Driver side doesn’t work. All the others do. I accidentally got snow in there one cold morning and my hands were too freezing to give a fuck in the moment so I dug what I could out. Few days later it stopped working. I’m not sure if this is still a master switch issue because that one doesn’t work but the other 3 do but there probably isn’t the physical damage like yours had. Mine is most likely an electrical situation. You think I should still be good ordering an assembly and that would prob a be the fix and not an overall electric overhaul? I’m so glad there’s someone who was in my same predicament so I could easily find this video.
Mine is the same as in the video, if you can close and open that window with the key button its not the motor or the wiring, its the switch.
there is no gaurantee if you switch it that it will work, but its better you try it than pay a mechanic hurdreds of dollars. I'm happy that my video has helped you in some way, it makes me happy! thank you!
@@BiMiHi thank you for your comment!
I have vw touran 2017 model and only driver side window not working won’t go down kindly let me know any suggestions or guidance do you think that could be the switch or any fuse it was working fine yesterday but just today it’s stop working. Let me know thanks
its possible that the same thing that happened to me happened to you. if you watch the video closely it shows that all the switches work except for the driver side window. its the most used window so it makes sense that it breaks first. i replaced the whole switch, which I think is the easiest thing to do in my opinion. there is a link for the part in my description if you you would like to do it yourself! hopefully this helps! have a good day!
I’m sure it was probably said but it when I bought my mk7 I guess the dealer tried to pry from the top and started at the bottom and left a bend in the plastic from a screwdriver I haven’t attempted yet I’d say use a plastic pry tool
Yes it is definitely worth doing it the long way so nothing breaks
Can you do this without taking panel off as my window switch is two buttons as have 3dr
It might be possible, but you have to be careful that you don’t break the clips! I hope this helps, please consider subscribing I would really appreciate it! ❤️🙌🏼
Hi i just put a new master switch and when i push the button down the glass goes down (it works for all) but for the up it doesnt work for any glasses (only from the master switch in the conductor side) can you help me please ?
I’ve never heard of that problem happening before. Did you make sure that all the wires are plugged in properly? Where did you get the master switch from?
Is it the same for the 2018 Polo mk6 ?
I’m not too sure you would have to do some research!
can i buy this for my vw tiguan 2018?
It should work! You can always double check with the amazon product checker
is it the same way for Golf gte MK7 2019 ?
I’m not 100% sure but it will be very similar if it is different
I´ll give a try, thx@@LukesVlogs97
I'm going to go try to do it without removing the door panel I will comment back
Can you please let me know where you got the switch from?
you can find it here! amzn.to/40TSWrB
I own a MK7 2017 VW Golf Wolfsburg Edition. Your video is like saying to get into the front door & driver seat of my car, I need to open the hatch, crawl through the opening smaller hatch between the seats, and then through the back seats into the front driver seat to start the car and then go somewhere. Why not open the front door and sit in the driver's seat, to go somewhere? A whole lot easier.
There's absolutely no need to take off the door panel to carry out this small task. Insert a flat head into front end (nearest the door handle pull) in the underside of the switch casing cover edge. Push with a screwdriver gently, firmly until you feel the switch casing release from the clips. Be patient. Then pull up on the front side and the switch until it comes right out. I did it last night, it took me about 15 total minutes because I took my time, to take the switch out, put the new switch in and, I was done! Your instructions might attract more video likes, but it also increases the odds of breaking something else that is completely unrelated to the switch, and it'll take you a couple of hours to do that job if you're skilled. If not it may not happen very well at all and go south.
Thank you for giving me your opinion! I appreciate it. Your way does seem easier but in my video I preferred to do it the other way. I didn’t want to break the clips, it was something I’ve never done before so I wanted to do it the only way I knew how! Maybe you or I can make a new video that’s faster? 👍🏼
Is there really any need to remove the door panel?
There is other ways you can do it, but this way in my opinion your less likely to break something.
Looks like all mk7 have the same problem 😂
haha i know, im seeing how many comments and views im getting and it makes me wonder how many people have the same problem lol. thank you for commenting i really appreciate it!
Mine broke in my GTI for both windows haha 😅
Ohh nooo lol. Hopefully this video helps you get those fixed! Please consider subscribing it would really help me out! ❤️
The window switch is very hard to get out
If only you included putting the panel back on, I took it off a couple times but still can’t get it to sit flush with the door :(
ohhh nooo I’m sorry to hear that. I wish I could help! Thank you for letting me know🥹 good luck, hopefully everything returns back to normal ❤️👍🏼
@@LukesVlogs97 haha thanks man, I’ll keep working on it, great vid though, very helpful!
I can’t believe I just bought the switch from the dealership for 200
Damn, I’m sorry to hear that. Hopefully you can get it working and you won’t have to worry about it again!
Looool
He's a Manbunian.
This is very ill-informed advice that will destroy the mounting clips for your door. Use the proper wedge tool to release the four round push-in clips as they are designed. Following Luke's method will most likely end with your tearing those clips apart. Their not showing it fully reinstalled is kind of a tell that they broke their tabs.
You can find the "door panel trim retainer clips" online from a few brands. Make sure you get those and the forked pry tool to properly remove the panel.
Luke also completely skips showing how they managed to get at the the very difficult to reach locking tabs on the body of the switch closest to the inside of the trim at 2:28. I had to use a hooked o-ring removal tool to push that tab in. Don't just force things like Luke is showing here.
Also, the red reflector doesn't have to be removed.
Thank you for your feedback, it is appreciated.
Although my experience was perfectly fine and nothing was broken, I have helped many other people with this method and they have shown their gratitude in the comment section. Please don’t assume that things were broken, if they were I would have mentioned my mistake so others wouldn’t replicate it.
If your method is more successful and efficient then you should post a video to help others. I’m sure people would appreciate it.
Thank you
Have a good one 🤙🏼
