Hey guys so about a week ago i poster thread about how my car has to be locked manual because drivers door auto locks dont work but when you lock it from the trunk it works fine. So the other day i tried to do it with passenger door and my car locks and alarms and if i hold key longer in one or the other direction windows open or close so that works just fine.
BUT
from my drivers door i cant lock all the doors and i cant open close windows and i cant even use the lock button from inside.
Ive checked the fuse box and fuses and they are all ok.
So someone suggested to take the panel out and see whats going on with it,

I CANT GET THE PANEL OUT

Please help me out i know there are 3 screws one on each side and 3rd in the handle but then how do you take it off??? Ive tried but ive almost broke it so please help me out here.

 

The one in the handle is just holding a cover on. You have to pull that cover down and out to reveal two other MAIN screws that are holding the panel in.. Once you do that lift the panel up and off the door lock.. I would be willing to bet one of your plugs to your main controlling window switch.. Which would make the door A not lock, and B not put your windows up and down like a good Audi would. Good luck.. its not hard

 

what cover are you talking about the one where window buttons located?

 

i just have to take 3 screws out on mine and then lift it right up... maybe someone stole my other screws :/

 

ok so i was able to get the panel off the car but after looking at all the wires and switches looks like everything connected. So now since all fuses are good and wires are connected i have no idea what could it be? Any ideas? all i know that the door was replaced before i bought the car so i dont know if that could be the problem???

 

If you remove the kick panel near the hood release, all the wiring from the door plugs into jacks underneath it. Maybe something didn't get plugged back in completely when they changed out the door.

 

Manufan i think you might be right actually i just opened my kick panel and looked around for any loose plugs and wiring and i found one black one with two wires running from it but its just hanging there unplugged but i looked around and couldn't find anywhere to plug it back in???
I dont know maybe i need to take my footrest out and see if there is any plugs there that are loose or something
