I also went through getting a dea.
Vw golf electric door lock problems.
If this happens the problem is with the remote.
This issue also indicates a bad lock actuator.
Common on many german cars.
Locks work from the switch but not the remote.
Seems to be a common problem.
I would think that if the actuator in the door was bad that the buttons would still work and lock unlock the rest of the doors.
Two other problems started at the same time.
The lock unlock buttons on the same door don t work either.
One of the door lock jammed inside and wouldn t allow the door to be open.
The door lock works in only one direction.
