Wonderful! I found your video using a Google search and then opened a rear door on my 2009 Jetta TDI that had been stuck for more than 3 years. Two mechanics specializing in German cars had already told me that this would be an extremely difficult repair to do since it would require detaching the outer door skin while having no access to the door sides. So I had settled on just living with the problem , until now. Thanks also for demonstrating in the video that the door still opens and shuts normally afterwards. Only the outer handle is detached.
I just changed the latch on my rear drivers door on my mark 5. In order to get the right feel of the handle, I set the black tab in the handle deeper than the preload spring let me. After a day of it working correctly, the door would no longer open from inside or outside. After watching your video I put two and two together and realized that I must have set it too deep. I pulled the tab out of the handle and the door opened from the inside just like you showed. Thanks
I have this problem with my Volkswagen Jetta in Argentina, I will take your video into account and I will try to open the rear passenger door to repair the lock. You have been very helpful and thank you very much for this video. If I can at least open the door I'll be more than happy.
Sir you saved my life lol I was so confused, I went to the grocery store in my 1999 Golf and had to exit from the passenger side but now we fixed it thanks to you!
Amazeballs!!! Not joking! This works! After suffering through this extremely drawn out video that does not work on a 2003 Beetle, I went up to the Beetle, hit the unlock switch once, smacked it twice on the door panel and the door latch suddenly worked. Amazing!!! What will VW think up next? I hate all these secret methods Euro cars have.
After door painted on mine Golf 4 ,on 1st remote lock door was stuck. After watching this tutorial and best explanation I realize that the garage man put the little wire so high,at the end, and there is no ELECTRONIC CIRCLE. Thanks,I fixed and save me for wondering 🤔 and trouble. (Before paint was ok and only the handle was removed from outside). 👍👏
you did a brilliant job to explain this in details and yet keep it simple. I can now proudly say that my Kia Sportage's left hand-side rear door has started to do the same, not opening neither from outside nor inside. and from what I have learned reading/watching some contents online, it is either the cable at is linked to the actuator or the motor inside of it. but like you said it can be a RESET issue. which none of the others really mentioned. Now, I reckon if I can open the door with the pick approach you demonstrated it will safe a massive headache since for my case i will need to remove the inside door cover. and without opening the door it will be so difficult to remove the push pins that holds the bottom of the door. such a good point you made about Engineers in general, It works great when it s new, but good luck fixing it when it is broken. Right to the point. Have a great one.
Thank you man, you saved me a pretty much savage way to open my drivers door. Caused by over stretched short string of the handle( dat one that you are releasing in the video! BIG THANK YOU!
Great video - very informative! With the 2009 Passat CC, I was under the impression that the lock mechanism could be replaced by removing the interior door panel first (believe I have seen UA-cam videos and forum posts explaining this)? Are you saying I need to remove the exterior door skin? EDIT: Yes, I believe you now! Outer door skin needs to be removed to replace the actuator - need to find and then watch your video on how to do this!
Replaced two of the lock control modules on my Passat. Verified that the handles worked by closing the latch with the door open, yet when I closed the rear door it wouldn't open! I apparently put the clip on the handle to far out. This technique got me into the car and functioning correctly without having to remove the door panels from inside the car!
Excellent info ! We have an 01 Beetle it hasnt done this problem yet but modern door latching is a nightmare if you don't know the " trick fixes". In our 07 Ford Focus the micro switches were sticking.....causes all kinds of problems including the anti theft and of course the dome light. Despite Ford insisting on special Ford door lub I used a combo of dry graphite on the latch and white lith on the mechanism. That was 5 yrs ago and zero prblems since.
thank you for posting this video , i have had this exact problem with my vw caddy van and no other videos on you tube had this solution, some garages where saying i had to smash the lock out with a hammer. so thanks again as this worked perfectly
Much like my 04' Passat 1.8T GLS Wagon's hood release completely broke. Was a pain in the butt and alot of people had issues but the main blame 4 me being worse off from other people's situations was because my x wife ignored the signs if it causing issues. Now that I have my hands on it she is running soo smooth and has been upgraded parts and hoses it is now time for me to get into the interior and check on how everything is looking which includes the door component sets which I may replace. Not a fun job since they are riveted on but that's why it's my project car. Thanks for sharing.
Good explanation of a common ,fault, when I worked at a VW dealership around 2000/2001 this was a known fault then cant believe they still had the problem in 2007 model year cars!!
Excellent! 👍. Normally we operate the lock multiple times and then bang the door in the area of the lock which works about 80% of the time, the other 20% we rip the panel off the inside.😀
Normally, you should operate the lock one time, and it should work 100% of the time (not 80% of the time according to the VW quality standards) which means you may burn alive in 20% of the cases. In hazardous conditions, you don't have the time and the tools to rip the panel off and disable the standard lock mecanism. I can't imagine why engineers and higher managers in this big company could consider this as an acceptable risk. When you have 3 grand-children seated and belted on the back seats of your Touran, you can't accept them burnt alive because the VW engineers admitted a potential failure of the door locks. My next car won't be a VW because these cars are far too dangerous for me.
Not joking! This works! After suffering through this extremely drawn out video I went up to the Beetle, smacked it twice on the door panel and the door latch suddenly worked. Amazing!!!
Thanks for your very great video! Many people was searching for this help to fix the problem! Your are the „Master“ of VW Doorlocks. when ich telephone whith VW, i will say to them that i have learn by the biggest!! Thanks vor your Work
Changed the lock case on my Octavia MK1 today due to some electrical problems. Closed the door and was not able to open it again neither from inside nor outside. Your video gave me a clue, and it showed out that the problem was related to the steel wire from the outside handle as you pointed out. Somehow the steel wire end with its plastic joint had gotten a little bit out of its position, which caused the problem you highlighted with the lock not freeing out properly. Sprayed wd40 through the handle opening, and slammed carefully on the handle with my hand. Obviously the plastic joint rotated on place, and the door is now fully in order again❗ Thanks ❗
@@jobbiejew yes it did. Pull out the relevant external door handle. Then spray WD-40 or similar on the tiny wire that goes down to the latch case (spray as far down you reach on the wire). Release the handle and hit it repeatedly by hand. Do this sequence several times if the first try fails. If this do not solve the problem you may need loosen the wire from the handle, which is a bit more tricky.
@@arildhelle64 I’d love to know how it could’ve came out of position considering there ain’t much play in the cable to begin with. Is it just because that hook ain’t returning to where it should? I changed the lock mech today and left the door card off in case something like this were to happen to make for easier access. Did you unclip the steel wire from the external handle before blasting it with WD40?
Unfortunately it doesn't work on a 2007 VW beetle, i had my fingers crossed that it would, have you any idea how to open the passenger door on a 2007 beetle
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT !!!! I had the same problem with my 2008 skoda fabia, I was contemplating having to cut a hole in the door and replacing it with a second hand one, im so happy I found your video 😁 it worked straight away thank you for uploading it, liked subscribed and rang the bell
Thank you very very mutch for your Explaining that Problem with that Mechanism...i hat the same Problem..and now i can fix it from inside, until now a couple of Mechanics in Germany where unsuxseßfull to repair it ,had no Idea about that Way...! Thank you sooo mutch
Wow! So simple, thank you so much for showing this! Please help! How do you put back the little plastic piece connected to the wire and the outside handle? This is driving me crazy! 🤪 Thanks
Wow. This brings nostalgic memories of my Audi S2 and S4 back in the days. Sad to have let them go but feeling blessed to not to have to deal with German over-engineering ))
Just wanted to say thanks, after a lot of wiggling of the narrow screwdriver in the gap right in whilst trying both internal and external handles it opened!
I totally agree with you.. It’s a crazy door design which makes everything inside very difficult to access.Having got the door skin off I’m having a nightmare resetting the handle.
My face was blocked on the right. I managed to remove the upholstery and the sheet with the crane that holds the jam. I thought it was a plug and I sprayed it but it still doesn't open. Do you think I could apply the same method? I saw that mine also has that buttonhole that you pushed inside. I would like your opinion before I try. and do you have a video where you repair the pot after or buy a new one?
Brilliant I’ve got the same problem with my Vw polo. I’m going to try dismantling the outer door cable. And let you all know the outcome. I’ve just pulled the inner door panel off and got nowhere. I cannot believe how bloody difficult it is to try and open the door from inside the bloody car. As I’ve always done. Like with any car. Ford escort, Hillman hunter, Morris minor and many other cars. So much for German engineering.
@@timmgrote2159 No it didn’t. I’ve had to strip the rear door down completely. After looking at many videos on here. Then i found the actual solution. That meant drilling a hole under the door card.

I like the way you EXPLAIN EVERYTHING in DETAIL? I was going to ask you , can you help me out how to install the window panel for the window can go up and dow i have all the parts for the window but i dont know how to go to install it? Volkswagen beetle 2005 none convertible 2.0 engine?
See my passanger side inner handle stopped working first, only way to open the door was from the outside. Now it wont open from either. But I will check for this aswell! Thank you Sir.
What used to happen to my 2015 Jetta (and only on cold Candian winter mornings) is the drivers door locks would click locked and unlocked eight or ten times by themselves. When the drivers door wouldn't open from the outside i would go in from the passenger side and have to open it from there with great difficulty.
Great job I learned that from my car because the back door not open and he takes me lots of time to fixed lots of money to go to the dealership car Volkswagen it’s very much expensive staff
Danka!!! My saviour - thank you so much! Driver's door (2009 VW Passat CC) won't open from inside or outside! Need to get the door open so I can remove the interior door panel and replace the locking actuator/mechanism. EDIT: Sorry, outer skin, not interior door panel - that will achieve nothing!
Hola. Buenas tardes. He visto este video y es muy bueno. Yo tengo este problema en un vw Golf V, pero le des engancho el plástico de la manera y no me abre por dentro. ¿Como podría abrir la puerta en este modelo?. Gracias
Great video! So much crap is produced today... Have a 30 year old Opel Vectra and had never anything like that. The Seat of my daughter... nightmare... Right back door opens from inside but not from outside. Also central locking does not work 100% Sometimes doors stay open, etc. Keep the garages busy and the manufacturers rich...
Before or in the same time you remove that cable from door handle, get a strong, slim and flexible wire and pull it through that head whole of that cable and catch it so you can try to pull it back later to the initial position.
Unfortunately this hack didn't work on my right front door. I removed the wire from the handle as explained in this video but it is still not possible to open from the inside. The door is still stuck.
Auto Source great info...I have a 2009 Audi S8 and this is a problem I’m experiencing on the RR door...do you think that’s a similar (VW) problem for me? Is there another access point for me to release the door so I can change the lock actuator?
The fact that this has 1M views should tell us something about this design…
wait till you see how to replace mk5 variant rear door lock actuator. It's easier to sell the car altogether.
worked for me
I'm a lo tech DIY'er but this worked brilliantly on my T5 camper, thank you so much, saved me a fortune!

Now opening ready to get rest 👍🏻
MY passanger door just started doing this and your comment saved me the panic of looking to see if the same remedy applied haha 👍👍
