vw passat b6 key won t unlock
#1 · Jun 25, 2011 Calling all gurus; 2006 Passat, the drivers door does not unlock with the key fob nor the door button, but all the other doors do. I can open the door from the inside using the handle. The light indicates the door is Locked. It seems like the 'unlock' signal is not getting to the drivers door.
Quick update. I removed the battery from my fob, put battery from wife's fob in mine, works! Changed batteries back, works again! So I guess the battery must have dislodged itself in my fob slightly. Still confused why the fob allowed me to lock the car but not unlock it. Anyway, problem solved.
insert your vallet key in the driver side door lock (outside the car) turn the vallet key towards lock and hold it there. while it is held towards lock, press the unlock button on your new remote for 2 seconds. let go. press it again for 2 seconds. let go and you should hear an alarm honk or something like that.
Just replaced the battery in my key fob. I got into my car with the normal key, put the fob in the ignition and now it won't come out. Evidently I need to reprogram, but how can I get the key fob out? Update (10/20/2017): I realized my car battery was the issue. It was flatlined. Left headlight - 2006-2015 Volkswagen Passat
