Went to open the drivers door today and the key would not open locks… normally I hear the motor turning open the locks, but today there was nothing. Any ideas? mmm… Dave?

Re: Door lock stopped working…
I believe mk3s are vacuum actuated so you may have a cracked line or a bad pump.Last edited by Stonewall; 06-09-2005, 04:41 PM.Name: Brent

Help!!!
Originally posted by VolkstechIf your door lock isn't working when you turn the key in the lock then the paddle broke off your door lock cylinder. Common problem with A3's. All you need is door lock cylinder and hardware and your back rolling again. Here's the parts you need. 21,23,24,25 and 27. take the part numbers down and go to the dealer. If you need a hand swapping it out, let me know.
So turned out that looks like it was it!
Now I got home last night and locked the door on the passenger side, as I still need to pick up some parts for the door. Came out this morning and now the passenger side lock would not unlock all the doors! (just its side) Would this be because I removed the parts [21-24] on the drivers side door?
Also when I went to lock the door after I got into work (parked in the bottom of my building today) I must have done it in the wrong order as my alarm is going crazy (left a door open, something like that)!! I had to take the battery off to shut it up, how can I deactivate the alarm?Last edited by Russell; 06-10-2005, 07:54 AM.2001.5 Audi S4
