I’ve recently bought a T6 2017 Startline conversion.
I can’t figure out the enigma of being able to lock the can frominside but disabling interior motion detector.
I’ve scrolled other posts and have exhausted the following options…
1. There is no switch to do this on B pillar.
2. The...
Just the interior movement sensor I think. It also changes the locking status from double locked (you can't open the doors from the inside or outside) to single locked (locked from the outside but the openable from the inside). Great for sleeping safely in the van.
Was going to say the same thing.
Open the driver door, can just open it a touch from the inside, press the button, you will see it change colour.
More useful on a pop top, I often enable it when the roof is up and we leave the van, especially in windy weather.
Hi all. I have just bought a 2017 T6.
When locking the van with the key fob the drivers door does not lock. It only locks when inserting the key. The red LED on the lock stays on (not flashing) All other doors lock with the fob.
I can't seem to find any answer for my problem.
Also, the barn...
If I do that and open the slider from the inside with a double pull (unlock then open) if I shut the door and I’m outside then the outside door handle won’t open the door even though it’s unlocked on the inside, until I unlock the van with the fob.
Check yours because it’s very easy to get...
Right!! So I’m sat in the van as I type this.
1, Lock the van with the driver’s door button. I can open the side door with the double pull. No interior alarm. I can step out, close the side door and it doesn’t re-lock. I can open the side door an re-enter the van. All the other doors are still...
What you describe is exactly as I understand and expect my van to work (MY23 T6.1 converted kombi).
Granted, I haven't tried dancing around inside the van, but the "1x press = alarmed & deadlocked / 2x press = no alarm & no deadlocking" is exactly the same behaviour as I've experienced on...
That button circled is the child lock button.
If you press that button, the sliding door will not be able to be opened frominside.
Press it, door wont open frominside, phone VW up to tell them there is a fault on the sliding door and it wont open frominside. VW will reply "Did you try...
Just came across this thread as the same thing has just happened on my 2023 T6.1 kombi. Did you resolve the issue and if so, would like to know how. Thanks
Hi all , Had a my t6 a while love it never had any issues. But just out of the blue my rear tailgate stopped working from the handle at the rear.
What i mean is when you grab the handle and the vans unlocked the tale gate should open now nothing.
So i removed the door handle and actuator and...
Lock the vanfrominside on that switch
When all the doors are locked from the inside just open the sliding door frominside all the other doors stay locked and if you need that locked after just push the slidey thing that popped up when you opened it back down
If you want the rest open in the...
Then use the lock button. This will lock the doors but not deadlock them, it won’t set the alarm either. We lock the van using the button when setting up, then open the side door from the inside, this won’t unlock the rest of the doors. The side door can then be re-locked using the button above...
That's exactly what I do. If I'm in the van I'll only ever use the sliding door and opening that only unlocks that door so it's easy to lock it again from the inside.
Tried the following frominside the van:
1. Pressed once on lock button on key fob. Sliding door is locked and can not be opened from outside or inside.
2. Pressed twice on lock button on key fob. Sliding door is locked and can not be opened from outside but can be opened frominside.
3. Noticed...
The tailgate on my van recently stopped opening... was really annoying as could only open from the inside if I needed to. I accidently discovered that when I turned off the child-lock, miraculously the tailgate was working as it should.
So basicly the child-lock is locking the tailgate from...
At the summer camp after a good nights sleep we found we were locked in our van as the sliding door would not open so I had to open the passenger door and open from outside. When we got home I booked our van in with VW in Stoke on Trent under warranty as our van only has 1 month left.
Anyway I...
I always lock the van before going to bed using the button on the driver's door. Opening the slider frominside doesn't unlock the other doors / tailgate though, which I always forget, and then have to clamber back in to unlock the tailgate from the drivers' door button.
Having consulted the...
