Three Doors Deadlocked on VW Golf 1999 model

I have recently been having major difficulty with the door locks on my VW Golf. This started with the passenger door and the drivers door locks not catching when I closed them. it was as if the locking mechanism was not catching. The drivers lock has been replaced now and is working perfectly. Unfortunately the other three doors will now not open. It is as if they have been deadlocked. The central locking system is still working, i.e. the buttons are going up and down and the drivers door is locking. The other three doors will not unlock from outsied, with the key or from the inside. I feel that just general wear and tear is not the answer here as all doors have gone at once. Can anyone shed light on this.

SOURCE: deadlocked S80. Seats don't fold down. Keys in

hi there i presumed as you have told us that the back seats don't fold down that you have access to the inside of the car, if this is the case you could remove the backrest of the back seat and fish for the keys throw the holes in the back panel. regard John

SOURCE: boot will not open with fob? could it be

It won't be a deadlock issue, I bet my last dollar it will be a latch fault as they are quite common but before spending money it could be a programming error. I would advise getting plugged into something like Bosch KTS or Durametric to view the system for faults.

Driver door jammed on vw golf 99

Hold the door( when it's open) and try to lift it. After moving the door up and down, monitor the hinges, this will let you know if the hinges are getting worn.
drivers door gets used the most, maybe it's starting to sag causing binding.

I have a 55 plate VW Golf 2.0 Fsi - the alarm keeps going off by itself! We disconnected the battery last night (to get some sleep!) and it's started again today.... agh, HELP!

You probably have a faulty door,boot or bonnet lock.If you put the inside light switch to the setting for the light to come on when the doors are open,close all the doors and see if the light goes off.If your model golf has a display on the dash,it shuold tell you which door is open.It could also be a faulty interior sensor or a faulty alarm horn.A diagnostic machine will be able to tell you which was the last alarm activation.

Vw bora central locking

I would check the electrical wiring connector that connects to the B Pillar (the structure between the front and back doors looking for a pinched wire. If you move the rummer boot around a bit I think you can get a pretty good look at the wires and you will be looking for one that might be dangling loose. If this sort of thing isn't really up your alley a trip to the dealer may be in order.
