So I recently purchased an Audi with a blown motor. Got that changed out and it is working good. I also had some problems with the central locking system, got a new one and now pretty much everything is working except the rear door locks. I checked the wiring and the power signal is reaching all the way to the plug that plugs into the rear door locks. I don’t understand because it doesn’t make sense to me that both rear door locks are bad. I know that it is possible but it doesn’t make sense to me. The hard part is that I don’t really know the history on this car at all. I don’t know that much about Audi’s period, learning though. Is there something I need to do to the programming in the central locking system? Is there some safety future? I messed with the child proof door and that didn’t help any. Any help would be great!

Thanks

I assume you have the Bentley manual for your vehicle and VAGCom -It might have something to do with the security system module or a ground.

 

I dont have the Bently manual but i do have the AllData one. I pluged it into a proffesional scan tool, but it is not Vag-Com.

 

You need the Bentley manual and Vag com

the others are Ok for minor stuff and emissions..
