Could well be a broken couple of wires in the rubber boot?
Had this on my last wagon(main live feed broken through completely)you can get at it with the front door open to have a look/check test.

Help
Anyone with or know where I can find some wiring diagrams for above?
I'm 90% there with my tailgate lock/unlock problems but really need diagrams to see what wires going where.

Many thanks Craig

I brought a key with transponder,cut to fit my wagon from eBay.
£39 very fast postage,very pleased with it works a treat,all you need then is someone near you with vag tacho to code it and your remaining key to your car(simple process)jobs a gud un.

Seeing as the b5/5.5 suffer really badly I thought this might be the best section? I'm not looking to make money,more to help fellow members. I brought some of this from vw in the past but recently they said they no longer stock it? And this stuff is great for door panels and pollen filter as it doe...

Hi guys Don't know if this is in the wrong place? Mods feel free to move and I apologise if it is. Having just come back into the b5.5 Passat fold in now in the process of waterproofing And sealing my latest one up. I've brought a box full of sealing tape (this is the stuff you want for metal door s...

If you've taken the outer door handle off? But haven't noted where you removed the small black tab that goes into the ribbed channel in the handle :hyst you're on a hiding to nothing! If its slightly out it will affect the opening/closing of said door! If its too slack then pulling the internal pull...

Doesn't sound like a very clued up garage to me [-x I mean who's going to do the cambelt and not replace the damper/tensioner? It tensions/dampens the vibrations on the cambelt in the interest of service life of the belt.Water pump, they shouldn't even have to ask that one, name and shame, I'm sure...

Did you not have the full cover that comes with the car then? big bit of plastic that covers the whole plenum, or on B5's the little Pollen filter cover? Yes mine has the full length cover and the thin gutter type channel over the filter housing(that's a poo design) since I did my own my cars been ...

As for the water ingress! Mine had the drain channel in place but water was still getting onto the filter and into the footwell. I made my own cover out of a plastic paint roller tray cut in half,It fitted perfectly and with the back section left open it still lets air to enter the cabin. No more wa...

Dodgy lock module I would have to say! Could be solder joints or bad micro switch? The cars thinking the doors still open so lights stay on. I would be inclined to strip the module out and check it with a multimeter. Wouldn't hurt to touch up the solder on the pins while its out I would say a good c...

I'm sure it's a panel off job? When removing the blank the screw it should be undone slowly while easing the blank out.
That way you don't go too far and the ring won't fall into the bottom of the door.
I feel your pain! As these doors/locks are a pain until you've done one or two.

Cheers Craig

Worn indicator stalk? Common problem.

Cheers Craig

When you say your passenger footwell is dry? I take it you mean under the carpets?
Also have you checked the multi plugs behind the pass kick panel? They have a nasty habit of going green and corroded.
Regarding the rear door,sounds like the main micro/solder joints playing up.

Cheers Craig

I had water running onto my filter and down the feed pipe and behind the carpets! That Rain gutter is about as much use as a ashtray on a motorbike,you may laugh :hyst but I made a cover for mine out of a small paint tray type thing. I left the back part open so I still get great air flow but not a ...

Sounds like micro switches/solder joints to me?

Craig

Forgot to add! Does your car reconise when the individual doors are opened? And do you get the message on the dash? And are your puddle lights working when the doors are open? Any of these leads to the modules.

Cheers Craig

Get it scanned! Trouble being they (door modules) have a habit of being intermittent! What makes you think it's ccm? If its bone dry under your carpets? If not ccm then there's only wiring and have you checked the signal to the doors? You've got the multi plug connectors up in the passenger footwell...

Rubber boot in door pillar ? Water can Run through these down inside of pillar onto the carpet?
I took mine off and punched some holes through the bottom of the boot,that way the water drains out before getting in the car.
Cheers Craig

Sounds like the symptoms I had on mine when I got it. If you get the car vag-com scanned it will probably show door lock module implausible signal faults? If you get the module out and open it up its quite easy to see what's going on in there. You can then check the micro switches and boards and re ...

I would have to say that your carrier panel seals have gone on your doors? When you get heavy rain it runs between door and carrier then over the plastic trim into the footwells. I had this on 3 of my doors on my estate! Took them off removed the broken down seal(along bottom edge and 150mm up each ...

Yeah! Just had mine done at 150k
New oil seal,shaft bearing,luks DMF kit and oil change on box 12mths/12000 miles warranty for £550 all in.
There's some right rip off merchants about! Trouble is some people will pay these prices.

Craig

Have you looked under your passenger side carpets?
My pollen filter was wet and the water had tracked down behind the carpets.

Craig

Door lock module! Very common.
Has it just done this or has it been intermittent?
Could be Broken wire,solder joints?
Have you scanned the car with vag-com?
Cheers Craig

The fronts easier than the rear! To me anyway. Give me a shout if you get stuck also have you got a brand new lock or breakers? How long have you had the car? Has someone been having a play with that lock before? Because if its been messed with and the small pull wire to handle is not in the correct...

There's a way of getting the door card off! But easy or not depends on the man with the tools. Sounds like the lock module to me?(very common) could be a broken wire in pillar. Have you scanned the car for faults? I've had all my locks apart and repaired them,one was a bad micro switch and the rears...
