bells 5 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Hi there , I've had a problem with my 4 mo central locking for over a year , I had to lock/unlock the car with the key and put the key in the ignition to stop the alarm going off , vw garage had it for 4 hours and couldn't solve it in the end they said I needed a new coms unit at about £700 fitted , I couldn't afford or justify that money on remote central locking , I found a post on another forum which read some car stereo adapters send a feed back to the ignition barrel making the car think a key is in so remote central locking wont work ! I removed my stereo and adapter block and the remote locking works , I couldn't believe it I Evan plugged it back in to double check it I don understand how vw couldn't find this , so wip your stereo out and any adapters and see if that works Hope it helps VR6Pete 1 Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Pretty sure VW don't use standard ISO connectors on the Corrado either, I had to do some reworking get mine working properly and have seen instances of it interfering with the spoiler module on the corrados too.
